Officers may review reference (a) at the Officer Promotion homepage. 4. Personal responsibilities. Each officer is personally responsible for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of their OMPF and MBS before the date the board convenes. Refer to reference (a) for information on obtaining and reviewing your OMPF and fitness report submission guidelines and timelines. 5. Body Composition. Reference (c) modifies the Height and Weight requirement to a Waist-to-Height Ratio (WHtR) requirement. At present, there is no method for the Digital Boardroom to pull current WHtR information. Accordingly, an officer will not be viewed negatively solely because a current WHtR measurement is not available to the board. However, previous Height and Weight measurements contained within an officer's record will be considered, as well as any fitness reports that were processed with a WHtR directed comment. Officers who desire to have their current WHtR made available to the board may submit WHtR documentation signed by their Command Physical Training Representative as an enclosure to their letter to the board pursuant to the instructions outlined in reference (a). Submission of WHtR is optional. 6. Officer Correspondence. All eligible officers may, if desired, submit correspondence to the President of the Board. Refer to paragraph 8 of reference (a) on correspondence submission requirements, due dates and forwarding options. 7. Release authorized by MajGen Fridrik Fridriksson, Director, Manpower Management Division.//
