How long does a NJP stay on your record?

In the military, a Non-Judicial Punishment (NJP) typically remains on your record for two years from the date of the punishment. However, it can be longer if the punishment is associated with a more serious offense or if it is part of a pattern of misconduct. Additionally, NJP records may still impact future evaluations and promotions, even after the formal record retention period has expired. It’s important to consult with a legal advisor for specific guidance regarding your situation.
