naval record and applicable statutes, regulations and policies.
Documentary material considered by the Board
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 served on active duty in the Navy from 24 November
1972 to 5 December 1973, when you were discharged by reason of unsuitability. Although

discharge. On 8 March 1984, the Veterans Administration awarded you a 0% rating for
residuals of ear infections, and 0% for a minimal hearing loss in the right ear.

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.
