Docket No: 0705-02
6 June 2002
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 5 June 2002. 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.
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 24 May 2000 for
four years at age 23. On 8 June 2000, you were referred to the
recruit mental health unit because you stated that you had
scratched your wrist with scissors two days ago and had thought
of suicide every night. You were diagnosed with a borderline
personality disorder and strongly recommended for an entry level
separation.
On 12 June 2000 you were notified that separation action was
being initiated by reason of defective enlistment and induction
due to erroneous enlistment as evidenced by the diagnosed
personality disorder. You were advised of and waived all of
your procedural rights. On 12 June 2000, separation was
approved and on 20 June 2000 you received an entry level
separation by reason of erroneous entry. At that time, you were
assigned an RE-4 reenlistment code.
Regulations authorize the assignment of an RE-4 reenlistment
code to an individual separated by reason of erroneous
enlistment. The Board found no evidence that the diagnosis of
personality disorder was incorrect. Given the apparent severity
of this diagnosis, and your failure to complete recruit
training, the Board concluded that the assigned reenlistment
code was proper and no change is warranted. 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
