The Board found that you underwent a preenlistment physical examination on 5 April 2001.
You completed a Report of Medical History on that date in which you denied having a history
of any significant medical conditions. You enlisted in the Navy on 25 April 2001, and served

were assigned a reenlistment code of RE-4. You were discharged after you disclosed a
previously concealed pre-service history of a disqualifying heart condition, chest pain and
palpitations.

The Board concluded that you were not physically qualified for military service, and that you
would not have been permitted to enlist had you disclosed the disqualifying conditions. As
you were no& unfit for duty because of a disability that was incurred in or aggravated by your
military service, you were not entitled to be separated with entitlement to disability benefits
administered by the Department of the Navy. Accordingly, your application has been denied.

important to keep in mind that a presumption of regularity attaches to all official records.

applicant to demonstrate the existence of probable material error or injustice.

W. DEAN PFEIFFER
Executive Director
