This is in reference to your application for correction of your naval record pursuant to the provisions of 10 USC 1552.
A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records, sitting in executive session, considered your application on 3 January 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. In addition, the Board considered the advisory opinion furnished by Memo of 28 Nov 06, a copy of which is attached.
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. In this connection, the Board substantially concurred with the. comments contained in the advisory opinion. 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






ROBERT D. ZSA L MAN
 Acting Executive Director

b.       Public Law 105-85 enacted on 18 November 1997, authorized SBP participants to voluntarily discontinue SBP participation during the one-year period beginning on the second anniversary of the date of commencement of receiving retired pay. She could have requested to terminate her participation in the SBP during the one-year period which commenced 1 October 2002 with her spouse’s written concurrence.
3.       Information regarding the SBP has been available to PO2~q~from “Shift Colors”, the quarterly newsletter provided to all Navy retirees who maintain current correspondence address information with the DFAS-CL.
