DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-51 00

CRS
Docket No: 4211-06
2 July 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 20 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 March 2003. You received nonjudicial punishment and were convicted by a summary court-martial for such offenses as unauthorized absences totaling four days, disrespect, failure to obey a lawful order, and larceny.

On 4 April 2004 your commanding officer recommended that you be separated with a discharge under other than honorable conditions by reason of misconduct due to a pattern of misconduct and commission of a serious offense. When informed of this recommendation, you consulted with counsel and 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 19 April 2004 you were discharged with a discharge under other than honorable conditions, assigned a reentry code of RE—4.

Applicable regulations require the assignment of an RE-4 reentry code when an individual is discharged due to misconduct. Since you have been treated no differently than others in your
situation, the Board could not find an error or injustice in the assignment of your reentry code. Accordingly, your application has been denied. The names and votes of the members of the panel will be furnished upon request.

The Board did not consider whether your characterization of service or reason for separation should be changed, since you did not ask for such consideration and you have not exhausted your administrative remedy by applying to the Naval Discharge Review Board (NDRB). You may apply to NDRB by submitting the attached DD Form 293.

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
