Docket No:  2408-02 
29 April 2002 

This is in reference to your application for correction of your 
naval record pursuant to the provisions of Title 10, 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 17 April 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 2 8 ; ~ u l y  1997 at 
age 20.  The record reflects that on 25 March 1999 you received 
nonjudicial punishment for an unauthorized absence of a day and 
missing movement.  In your application, you also admitted to 
smoking marijuana a few weeks prior to your release from active 
duty on 27 July 2001.  On that date, you were separated under 
honorable conditions and transferred to the Naval Reserve.  At 
that time, you were assigned a reenlistment code of RE-4. 

The Board concluded that your use of drugs and the disciplinary 
action were sufficient to support the assignment of the RE-4 
reenlistment code.  The Board thus concluded that there is no 
error or injustice in your reenlistment code.  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
