DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100



 JRE
 Docket No. 04000-06
28 June 2007



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 21 June 2007. 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 Navy on 13 May 1977. You underwent a pre—separation physical examination on 11 September 1979, and were found physically qualified for separation. You were discharged by reason of misconduct on 30 January 1980, with a discharge under other than honorable conditions, based on your record of two convictions by courts-martial, and three nonjudicial punishments for multiple offenses.
There is no indication in the available records that you were unfit for service by reason of physical disability while serving
in the Navy. You would not have been entitled to disability separation or retirement even if you had been unfit, because a discharge by reason of misconduct takes precedence over disability processing. Accordingly, and as you have not demonstrated that it would be in the interest of justice for the Board to upgrade your discharge, 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
