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 evidence and contention to the effect that the symptoms of
anxiety which resulted in your discharge were caused by nicotine withdrawal, and that your
discharge is unjust for that reason.
In this regard, it noted that you were discharged after
seeking medical treatment for anxiety, and admitting a previously concealed history of
anxiety, for which you had taken anxiolytic medication for about three years prior to
enlisting in the Navy. The Board concluded that had you disclosed that history during the
course of your pre-enlistment processing, it is unlikely that you would have been found
qualified for enlistment. Given that history, and your inability to withstand the rigors of
recruit training, it does not appear that you are a suitable candidate for military service.
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
