EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: |
The Board finds that the applicant was moved from one cutter to another after engaging in an inappropriate
relationship with another shipmate. In the first four months at the new assignment, the applicant was very
unstable and suffered with depression which became a burden to the command. Additionally, the applicant
made suicidal gestures and comments to gain more attention; amplifying their inability to cope as a productive
crew member. A medical evaluation deemed that the applicant was no danger to others or their own life at the
time. However, the Board notes that Tripler Army Psychiatrist recommended the applicant for an expeditious
administrative separation due to an Adjustment Disorder with Anxiety and Depressed Mood. Thereafter, the
applicant was processed for Discharge.
The applicant was notified of the intent to discharge; And, the applicant was advised of the rights to an attorney
and to make a statement. Both options were waived in not objecting to the discharge.
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.
Propriety: Discharge was proper.
Equity: Discharge was equitable.
Final Adjudication by Assistant Commandant For Human Resources: Partial relief is granted based on
post-policy in ALCOAST 252/09 as follows:
Separation Code: JFY
Reentry Code: RE-3G
Narrative Reason: Adjustment Disorder
All other items stand as issued.

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.
