DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
TUR
Docket No: 8785-98
30 June 1999
Dear wee
This is in reference to your application for correction of your
naval record pursuant to the provisions of Title 10, 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 22 June 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 the evidence submitted was insufficient
to establish the existence of probable material error or
injustice.
The Board found you reenlisted in the Navy on 19 August 1992
after four years of prior honorable service. Your record
reflects that you continued to serve for a year and nine months
without incident but on 20 May 1994 you received nonjudicial
punishment (NJP) for aggravated assault with a dangerous weapon.
The punishment imposed was restriction and extra duty for 45
days, forfeitures totalling $1,105.80, and reduction to paygrade
E-3.
On 23 May 1994 you were notified of pending administrative
separation action by reason of misconduct due to commission of a
serious offense. After consulting with legal counsel you elected
to present your case to an administrative discharge board (ADB).
On 30 June 1994 an ADB recommended you be issued a general
discharge by reason of misconduct due to commission of a serious
offense. Subsequently, 25 July 1994, your commanding officer
recommended you be issued a general discharge by reason of
misconduct. On 19 August 1994 the discharge authority approved
the foregoing recommendations and on 30 August 1994 you were so
discharged.
The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth and immaturity and your contentions that you would
like your discharge upgraded. However, the Board concluded these
factors were not sufficient to warrant recharacterization of your
discharge given the serious nature of your misconduct. The Board
noted that you assaulted a superior petty officer by pointing a
nine-inch knife at him. Given all the circumstances in your case
the Board concluded your discharge was proper as issued and no
change is warranted. 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
