Docket No: 0816540
17 August 2001

Dear Staff Serg

This refers 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 removal of the fitness
reports for 28 April to 1 December 1995 and 19 September 1997 to 28 February 1998.

It is noted that the Commandant of the Marine Corps (CMC) has amended the contested
report for 19 September 1997 to 28 February 1998 by removing the reviewing officer’s
comments.

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records, sitting in executive
session, considered your application on 16 August 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, the Board
considered the report of the Headquarters Marine Corps Performance Evaluation Review
Board 

(PERB), dated 7 June 2001, a copy of which is attached.

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 warranting further correction. In this connection, the Board substantially concurred
with the comments contained in the report of the PERB. Concerning the contested report for
28 April to 1 December 1995, the Board noted you chose not to make a statement, in which
you could have noted any relevant extenuating circumstances. In view of the above, your
application for relief beyond that effected by CMC 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

and material evidence or other matter not previously considered by the   Board.
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.

In this

Sincerely,

W. DEAN PFEIFFER
