EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The applicant was discharged due to Adjustment Disorder in 2010. The applicant was diagnosed with an
Adjustment Disorder with depressed mood by the local HSWL clinic in late 2009. The recommendation by the
clinic deemed the applicant unsuitable for continued military service.
The events leading up to the psychiatric evaluation involved larceny in which the applicant stole money from a
shipmate’s locker, then failed to adequately clean their gov’t housing unit, and had difficulties following
routine orders and tasks. Prior to psychiatric evaluation, the applicant was taken to NJP in the Fall of 2009.
The Board finds no issues with propriety and equity on this case. The board recommends no relief. As issued,
the applicant received an Honorable discharge.
Propriety: Discharge was proper.
Equity: Discharge was equitable.
Final Adjudication by Assistant Commandant For Human Resources: No relief.

After just a few months, the applicant had difficulty adjusting to military life and went to the clinic for a psychiatric review. In accordance with (post-policy) ALCOAST 252/09, the Board recommends a change to SPD code JFY, Narrative Reason of Adjustment Disorder, and a Re-entry code of RE-3G. The FY series was to be aligned with the new narrative reason of ‘Adjustment Disorder’ which is best suited for the medical assessment made by the Navy Medical Center in Portsmouth in late 2006.

The Officer of the Day ordered the applicant back to the base as soon as possible. After a thorough review, the applicant’s record supports a diagnosis of adjustment disorder. The Board therefore recommends that the applicant’s narrative reason for discharge be changed to “Adjustment Disorder” with SPD code “JFY”.
