Subject’s naval record
1. Pursuant to the provisions of reference (a), Subject, hereinafter referred to as Petitioner,
filed enclosure (1) with this Board requesting, in effect, that his naval record be corrected to
show that he was assigned a reenlistment code’ other than the RE-4 code he received on 17
July 2001.
2. The Board, consisting of Messrs. Cooper, Frankfurt and Pfeiffer, reviewed Petitioner ’s
allegations of error and injustice on 9 January 2003 and, pursuant to its regulations,
determined that the corrective action indicated below should be taken on the available
evidence of record. Documentary material considered by the Board consisted of the
enclosures, naval records, and applicable statutes, regulations and policies.
3. The
of error and injustice finds as follows:
Board, having reviewed all the facts of record pertaining to Petitioner’s allegations
a. Before applying to this Board, Petitioner exhausted all administrative remedies
available under existing law and regulations within the Department of the Navy.
b. Enclosure (1) was filed in a timely manner.
C. Petitioner served on active duty in the Navy from 30 May to 17 July 2001, when he
was discharged by reason of his failure to meet procurement medical standards because of
symptomatic flat feet. He was assigned a reenlistment code of RE-4. He states, in effect, that
although he has had flat feet for years, the problem he had with his feet while in the Navy
was caused by shoes that were too small for his feet.
CONCLUSION:
Upon review and consideration of all the evidence of record, the Board concludes that
Petitioner has not demonstrated that his discharge was erroneous; however, it does not believe
he should bear the stigma associated with a reenlistment code of RE-4. Accordingly, the
Board finds the existence of an injustice warranting the following corrective action.
RECOMMENDATION:
a. That Petitioner ’s naval
record be corrected to show that he was assigned a
reenlistment code of RE-3E on 17 July 2001.
b. That a copy of this Report of Proceedings be filed in Petitioner
’s naval record.
4. Pursuant to Section 6(c) of the revised Procedures of the Board for Correction of Naval
Records (32 Code of Federal Regulations, Section 723.6(c)) it is certified that a quorum was
present at the Board ’s review and deliberations, and that the foregoing is a true and complete
record of the Board ’s proceedings in the above entitled matter.
ROBERT D. ZSALMAN
Recorder
5. Pursuant to the delegation of authority set out in Section 6(e) of the revised Procedures of
the Board for correction of Naval Records (32 Code of Federal Regulations, Section 723.6(e))
and having assured compliance with its provisions, it is hereby announced that the foregoing
corrective action, taken under the authority of reference (a), has been approved by the Board
on behalf of the Secretary of the Navy.
