Docket No: 00787-03
24 July 2003
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 session, considered your
application on 16 July 2003. 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.
The Board found that you enlisted in the Navy on 2 October 2002
at age 31. On 5 November 2002 you were diagnosed with a
personality disorder with antisocial, paranoid, and borderline
features as well as alcohol dependency and recommended for
administrative separation.
On 12 November 2002, you were notified of administrative
separation processing and waived all of your procedural rights
except the right to obtain copies of documents forwarded to the
separation authority supporting the basis for the proposed
separation. On 13 November 2002 the commanding officer approved
you separation and, on 19 November 2002, you were discharged with
an entry level separation by reason of erroneous enlistment
because of the diagnosed alcohol abuse. At that time, you were
assigned a reenlistment code of RE-4.
Applicable regulations require the assignment of an RE-4
reenlistment code when an individual is discharged by reason of
erroneous enlistment due to alcohol abuse. Given the diagnosed
alcohol dependency and personality disorder, the Board concluded
that the RE-4 reenlistment code was properly assigned.
Accordingly, your request 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,
