Docket No: 8801-98
8 September 1999
This 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 26 August 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 were evaluated by a board of medical survey on 16 March 1960,
and given a diagnosis of keratoconus, bilateral, existed prior to entry, not aggravated by
service. That board recommended that you be discharged from the Naval service without
entitlement to disability benefits. On 18 March 1960, after being advised of the finding and
recommendation of the board of medical survey, you waived your right to appear before a
physical evaluation board, and requested that you be discharged from the Navy as soon as
possible. You were discharged on 29 March 1960.
In the absence of evidence which demonstrates that your condition was incurred in or
aggravated by your naval service, the Board was unable to recommend any corrective action
in your case. Accordingly, your application has been denied. The names and votes af 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
