BOARD  FOR  CORRECTION  O F N A V A L R E C O R D S  

2  N A V Y A N N E X  

WASHINGTON  DC  20370-5100 

Docket No.  04558-03 
20 October 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 October 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. 

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 found that 
you were discharged from the Marine Corps on 25 September 1992, 
with your consent, by reason of physical disability due to knee 
pain that was not responsive to treatment. You were assigned a 
reentry code of RE-3P, which is the most favorable code 
authorized for a Marine discharged by reason of physical 
disability. 

The Board considered your statement and the medical evidence you 
submitted in support of your application insufficient to warrant 
any corrective action.  It noted that your present physical 
condition, although relevant to the issue of your qualification 
for reenlistment at this time, is not germane to the issue of 
the propriety of the reentry code you were assigned in 1992.  As

The Board suggests that you visit your local recruiter to 
determine if waiver consideration is appropriate in your case. 

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,
