Docket No: 3149-02
22 October 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
. Your allegations of error and injustice were
session, considered your application on
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. You underwent a pre-separation physical examination on 18 December 1986, and
were found qualified for separation. You stated that you were in good health at that time,
and denied a history of depression, excessive worry or nervous trouble of any sort. You
were released from active duty on 28 January 1987, and transferred to the Naval Reserve.
The Board rejected your contention to the effect that you were erroneously diagnosed as
suffering from a personality disorder in 1986. Although it is possible that you were
experiencing the initial manifestations of a condition later diagnosed as a bipolar disorder, you
have not demonstrated that you were unfit for duty by reason of physical disability when you
were released from active duty. 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
