Docket No: 08944-95
19 August 1999

Dear J1~TI~*~j

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. You requested replacement of
the “2.8” mark in “military appearance” in your enlisted performance evaluation report
ending 16 April 1967.

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records, sitting in executive
session, considered your application on 19 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.
considered the advisory opinions furnished by the Navy Personnel Command dated
10 May and 8 July 1999, copies of which are attached, and your letter dated 12 August 1999
with attachments.

In addition, 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. In this connection, the Board substantially concurred with the comments contained
in the advisory opinion dated 10 May 1999. They noted the contested mark need not be
consistent with your performance evaluations for other periods. The photographic evidence
you provided did not persuade the Board that the mark at issue was unwarranted.
the above, your application has been denied. The names and votes of the members of the
panel will be furnished upon request.

In view of

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.

~Q1/ /.-9ç

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
