CRS 
Docket No:  3072-03 
4 June 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 4 June 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 8 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. 

The Board did not consider whether your characterization of 
service or reason for separation should be changed, since you did 
not ask for such consideration and you have not exhausted your 
administrative remedy by  applying to the Naval Discharge Review 
Board  (NDRB).  You may apply to NDRB by  submitting the attached 
DD Form 293. 

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 app1.icant to demonstrate the 
existence of probable material error or injustice. 

Sincerely, 

W.  DEAN PFEIFFER 
Executive Director

administrative portion of his service record indicates that he 
was counseled concerning heel pain, having a privately owned 
vehicle  (POV) aboard Camp Geiger while in a student status, 
illegal usage of a controlled substance, and not being 
recomrnmended for reenlistment.  The disciplinary portion of

included wrongful use of marijuana, bringing a POV to School of

disrespectful toward a noncommissioned officer, and breaking 
restriction. 

3.  After a review of all relevant information, this Headquarters

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 enclosure is returned for final action.
