DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370~5 1 00
SJN
Docket No: 04091-06
2 November 2006


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 31 October 2006. 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 10 July 1997 at age 19. On 24 July 1997, a recruit mental health evaluation was conducted, and it was determined that you had an adjustment disorder with mixed anxiety and depressed mood, and your retention in the Navy would constitute a potential danger to yourself and others.

Based on the comments in the mental health evaluation to the effect that you could not adjust to military life and experienced crying spells and suicidal ideation, you were processed for separation by reason of entry level performance and conduct. On 30 July 1997, after you were advised of your procedural rights, you elected only to receive copies of documents to be forwarded to the separation authority and waived all other rights. Subsequently, on 5 August 1997 you were discharged with an entry-level separation by reason of entry level performance and conduct. At that time, you were assigned a reenlistment code of RE—4.

Applicable regulations require the assignment of an RE-4 reenlistment code to individuals who are separated due to entry level performance and conduct. The Board thus concluded that there is no error or injustice in your reenlistment code. 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
