Docket No:  441-01 
25 April 2001 

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  19 April 2001.  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.  In addition, it considered the 
comments provided by  your counsel. 

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  enlisted in  the Navy  on 27 June 1986.  On  24 June 1988, you 
were referred  for psychologicai evaluation because of  your complaints of agitation, 
depression, and vague suicidal ideation.  You  were diagnosed as suffering from a personality 
disorder not otherwise specified, with  immature and  narcissistic traits, and recommended for 
administrative discharge.  You  were discharged by  reason  of  a personality disorder on  11 
July  1988. 

The Board  concluded that your post-service achievements, and  the statement of  a physician 
that  "I did not find any evidence in  my  examination [of 24 November  19921 of  significant 
psychopathology and  I do not  feel that he has a diagnosable personality disorder" were 
insufficient to demonstrate that the diagnosis made on  24 June  1988 is erroneous, or that 
your discharge was  improper.  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
