Docket  No:  4628-02 
13 June 2002 

Dear  ~a- 

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. 

It  is noted  that  the  Headquarters Marine Corps (HQMC) Performance  Evaluation  Section, 
Personnel Management Support Branch,  Personnel  Management Division  (MMSB-30) has 
filed a  memorandum  in  your  record  modifying  the contested fitness report  for  1 April  to 
18 June 2001  to  reflect  that  item  5.a has  been  marked,  which  indicates that  the report  is 
adverse.  It  is  further noted  that  the HQMC Perforniance  Evaluation  Review Board  (PERB) 
has processed  the  report as an  adverse evaluation. 

A three-member panel  of  the Board  for  Correction  of  Naval  Records,  sitting in  executive 
session, considered your  application on  13 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.  In  addition,  the Board  considered the report  of 
the PERB, dated  13 May  2002 with  enclosure, 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.  In  this connection, the Board  substantially concurred  with  the comments contained 
in  the report of  the  PERB.  Accordingly,  your  application for  relief beyond  the modifications 
effected by  MMSB-30 and  the PERB 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  I-ccuilsicler 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. blirden  is on  the 
applicant to demonstrate the existence of  probable  material error or injustice. 

Sincerely, 

W.  DEAN  PFEIFFER 
Executive Director

( 1 )  Finalized  Fitness Report  010401-010618  (TR) 

1 .   Per MCO 161O.11C1 the Performance Evaluation Review Board, 
with  three members present, met on 16 January 2002 to consider 
C a p t a i n T d P I I I ( I I I P C p e t i t i 0 n   contained in reference  (a) .  Removal 
cf  the fitness report for the period 010401 to 010618  (TR) 
was requested.  Reference  (b) is the performance evaluation 
directive governing submission of the report. 

2.  The petitioner  contends that the report contains derogatory 
material in Section I  (Directed and Additional Comments).  As 
such, he believes he should have been required to acknowledge 
the report by  signing Section 52 and given an opportunity to 
respond. 

3.  In its proceedings,  the PERB concluded that, as contended, 
the petitioner  should have been given an opportunity to respond 
to the adverse nature of the - - ~ o r t .  The following is offered: 

a.  Given the recent age of the report at the time the PERB 

first considered reference  (a) (seven months),  the Board  found 
that affording the petitioner the chance to respond would be a 
viable option.  That action was directed. 

b.  Subsequent to initiating referral action on 7 February 

2002, the petitioner  notified this Board that the Reporting 

d Reviewing Officer  (Lieutenant Colonel

neither the PERB nor the Fitness Report  Processing Section 
(MMSB-32) was in receipt of the rewritten report.  On that same 
date, official correspondence was again sent to the petitioner, 
allowing him the opportunity to acknowledge and respond to the 
fitness report.  He was directed to reply by  20 April 2002 and 
has not done so.
