session, considered your application on 20 May 1999.
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.

Your allegations of error and injustice,

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 did not accept your contention that you did not withhold information about your
health when you underwent your pre-enlistment physical examination, as that contention is
belied by the available records. The Board noted that despite having undergone two
operations to place shunts in your skull, and taking anti-convulsant medication for an
extended period of time, you did not disclose those matters in answer to items 18-21 of the
Standard Form 93, Statement of Medical History, you completed on 2 April 1997.
Accordingly, your application has been denied.

The names and votes of the members of the

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
