Docket No: 2963-03
14 May 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 14 May 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. In addition, the Board considered the advisory
opinion furnished by Headquarters Marine Corps dated 1 April
2003, 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 advisory opinion.
Accordingly, your application 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,
W. DEAN PFEIFFER
Executive Director

Personality Disorder. Due to the severe nature of the disorder,
it was believed he posed a serious threat to the safety and well
being of himself and others. It also rendered him incompatible
for continued military service.
3. After a review of all relevant information, this Headquarters
concurs in the professional evaluation of-
qualifi-
cations for reenlistment at the time of separation. Once a code
is correctly assigned it is not routinely changed or upgraded as
a result of events that occur after separation or based merely on
the passage of time.
4. The reenlistment code assigned by the Marine Corps is an
administrative marking which reflects the member's acceptability
for reenlistment at the time of separation from the Marine Corps.
The code may, however, be waived at the discretion of the
acquiring branch of service per their own policies and
regulations.
