DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
                  SMW
                                                                                          Docket No: 0 4718-05
                                                                                          1 September 2005


This is in reference to your application for correction of your
Naval record pursuant to the provisions of Title 10, 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 30 August 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 the evidence submitted was insufficient to establish the existence of probable material error or injustice.
You enlisted in the Navy on 1 July 1987 at the age of 19 and served for nearly five years without incident. However, on 29 May 1992, after being referred to a mental health unit, you were diagnosed with a passive aggressive personality disorder an occupational problem, and an adjustment disorder with depression, and were recommended for administrative separation due to these conditions.
Although the service record does not have a complete copy of your separation documents, it appears that you were then processed for separation by reason of convenience of the government due to the diagnosed personality disorder. On 16 June 1992 you were advised by service record entry that you were being assigned a RE-4 reenlistment code because you were not eligible or recommended for reenlistment. On 16 June 1992 you were honorably discharged due to the diagnosed personality disorder, and were assigned an RE-4 reenlistment code.





An RE-4 reenlistment code is authorized and often assigned when an individual is separated due to a diagnosed personality disorder. The Board noted your period of good service, but
          concluded that the RE-4 reenlistment code was warranted since you were not only diagnosed with a personality disorder but also suffered from an adjustment disorder and occupational problems.
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
