Docket No: 3 150-98
7 June 1999
~hi;is in reference to your application for correction of your naval record pursuant to the
provisions of title 10 of the United States Code, section 1552.
A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records, sitting in executive
session, considered your application on 20 May 1999. Your allegations of error and injustice
were reviewed in accordance with administrative regulations and procedures applicable to the
proceedings of this Board. Documentary material considered by the Board consisted of your
application, together with all material submitted in support thereof, your naval record and
applicable statutes, regulations and policies.
After careful and conscientious consideration of the entire record, the Board found that the
evidence submitted was insufficient to establish the existence of probable material error or
injustice.
The Board found that you enlisted in the Marine Corps on 10 December 1985. On 31
December 1987, a medical board gave you diagnoses of bulimia nervosa, did not exist prior
to enlistment (DNEPTE), treated, in remission; dysthymic disorder, EPTE, not service
aggravated (NSA); alcohol abuse, episodic, in remission, DNEPTE; and mixed personality
disorder with borderline and dependent features, EPTE, NSA. On 18 May 1988, a majority
of the hearing panel of the Physical Evaluation Board which considered your case on that
date found you fit for duty. A minority found you unfit due to the dysthymic disorder. The
Director, Naval Council of Personnel Boards approved the minority finding, and you were
discharged by reason of physical disability on 22 August 1988, without entitlement to
disability severance pay.
The Board carefully considered your contention that your disabilities did not exist prior to
your enlistment in the Marine Corps; however, in the absence of evidence which
substantiates that contention and demonstrates that your dysthymic disorder was incurred in
or agmvated by your naval service, the Rmrd was m;thle to recommend any corrective
action in your case. Accordingly, your application has been denied. The names and votes of
the members of the panel will be furnished upon request.
It is regretted that the circumstances of your case are such that favorable action cannot be
taken. You are entitled to have the Board reconsider its decision upon submission of new
and material evidence or other matter not previously considered by the Board. In this
regard, it is important to keep in mind that a presumption of regularity attaches to all official
records. Consequently, when applying for a correction of an official naval record, the
burden is on the applicant to demonstrate the existence of probable material error or
injustice.
Sincerely,
W. DEAN PFEIFFER
Executive Director
