(2) Case Summary
(3) Subject's naval record
1. Pursuant to the provisions of reference (a), Petitioner, a

former enlisted member of the Navy, filed enclosure (1) with this
Board requesting, in effect, that his naval record be corrected
to show a change in the RE-4 reenlistment code assigned on 19
September 2003.

 

      
 

   
 
  

        

2. The Board, consisting Sime nee and Ms.
MN viewed Petitioner*®®"allegations of error and injustice
on 30 August 2006 and, pursuant to its regulations, determined
that the corrective action indicated below should be taken on the
available evidence of record. Documentary material considered by
the Board consisted of the enclosures, naval records, and
applicable statutes, regulations and policies.

 

3. The Board, having reviewed all the facts of record pertaining
to Petitioner's allegations of error and injustice, finds as
follows:

a. Before applying to this Board, Petitioner exhausted all
administrative remedies available under existing law and
regulations within the Department of the Navy. ,

b. Enclosure (1) was filed ina timely manner.

Cc. Petitioner enlisted in the Navy on 20 September 1998.
He was advanced to aviation boatswain mate third class
(ABF3; E-4) and was awarded a Good Conduct Medal and a Navy and
Marine Corps Achievement Medal.

d. On 31 August 2003, Petitioner received a special
evaluation for the purpose of removing his advancement
recommendation. The evaluation assigned a marginal mark of 2.0
in the marking category of Military bearing and character, anda
Marginal overall trait average of 2.71. The evaluation also gave
a promotion recommendation of “significant problems”. Further,
he was not recommended for retention. This evaluation covered a
period of about 76 days.

e. On 19 September 2003 Petitioner was honorably released
from active duty and transferred to the Navy Reserve. At that
time, he was assigned a reenlistment code of RE-4.

 

£f. Petitioner has submitted documentation to show that he
is now a firefighter at Naval Activity, Puerto Rico, and has
taken several college courses.

 

g. Enclosure (2) to reference (b) states that an individual
who is released from active duty and not recommended for
retention must be assigned a reenlistment code of RE-4. An RE-1
reenlistment code means that an individual is fully qualified to
be reenlisted based on the needs of the service.

CONCLUSION:

Upon review and consideration of all the evidence of record the
Board concludes that Petitioner's request warrants favorable
action. In this regard, the Board believes that given his prior
record of service, Petitioner’s last evaluation, covering less
than three months, should not be the controlling factor in
assigning his reenlistment code. The Board also notes
Petitioner’s excellent post-service adjustment. Accordingly,
even though Petitioner’s RE-4 reenlistment code was assigned in
accordance with regulations, the Board believes that assignment
of that reenlistment code was unfair, and an RE-1 reenlistment
code would be more appropriate.

 

RECOMMENDATION:

a. That Petitioner's naval record be corrected by changing the
RE-4 reenlistment code, assigned on 19 September 2003, to RE-1.

b. That any material or entries inconsistent with or relating to
the Board’s recommendation be corrected, removed or completely
expunged from Petitioner’s record and that no such entries or
Material be added to the record in the future.

c. That any material directed to be removed from Petitioner’s
naval record be returned to the Board, together with a copy of
this Report of Proceedings, for retention in a confidential file
maintained for such purpose, with no cross reference being made a
part of Petitioner’s naval record.

4. It is certified that a quorum was present at the Board's
review and deliberations, and that the foregoing is a true and
complete record of the Board's proceedings in the above entitled

matter.
7. Lun

Recorder Acting Recorder
5. Pursuant to the delegation of authority set out in Section

6(e) of the revised Procedures of the Board for Correction of

Naval Records (32 Code of Federal Regulations, Section 723.6(e))
and having assured compliance with its provisions, it is hereby
announced that the foregoing corrective action, taken under the

authority of reference (a), has been approved by the Board on
behalf of the Secretary of the Navy.
