Dear Commande

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. You requested correction of
your naval record to show you were given a chance to accept a Regular Navy commission
before your release from active duty on 6 June 1995.

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records, sitting in executive
session, considered your application on 22 February 2002. Your allegations of error and
injustice were reviewed in accordance with administrative regulations and procedures
applicable to the proceedings of this 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 advisory opinion furnished by the Navy Personnel Command dated
11 July 2001 with enclosure, a copy of which is attached. The Board also considered your
letter dated 27 August 2001.

Documentary material considered by the Board

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. In this connection, the Board substantially concurred with the comments contained
in the advisory opinion. They noted that both the current version of the Naval Military
Personnel Manual and the version in effect at the time (article 1020120) stated that
procedures 
are contained in Secretary of the Navy Instruction
application has been denied. The names and votes of the members of the panel will be
furnished upon request.

“reouesting “[emphasis added]” transfer to the Regular Navy without board action

 

1210.5A.l’ In view of the above, your

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,
