DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
CRS
Docket No: 9990-04
17 October 2005
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 28
September 2005. 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.
The Board found that you enlisted in the Marine Corps on 7 December
1983. The record reflects that you received three nonjudicial
punishments. The offenses included unauthorized absences totaling 164
days and willful disobedience of a lawful order.
On 11 October 1984 the commanding officer recommended that you be
separated with an other than honorable discharge by reason of
misconduct due to a pattern of misconduct. When informed of the
recommendation, you elected to waive the right to present your case
to an administrative discharge board. After review by the discharge
authority, the recommendation for separation was approved and on 16
October 1984 you received an other than honorable discharge.
In its review of your application the Board carefully weighed all
potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and service in the
National Guard. However, the Board concluded that these factors were
not sufficient to warrant recharacterization of your discharge, given
your record of frequent involvement with military authorities. In
this regard, the Board noted that you were the subject of three
disciplinary actions within a period of less than a year.
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 PFIEFFER
