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

 

CRS
Docket No: 3738-07
13 May 2008

 

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 7 May 2008. 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 Reserve on 22
November 1995. On 20 November 1996 you received nonjudicial
punishment for use of a controlled substance. On 17 January 1997
you were discharged under other than honorable conditions by

reason of misconduct due to drug abuse.

In its review of your application the Board carefully weighed all
potentially mitigating factors, such as your contention that you
lied about your drug use. The Board could not determine if you
lied about your drug use to procure a discharge, or if you lied
in your application. In either case, relief is not warranted
because an individual who procures a discharge by fraud should
not benefit from the fraud when it is revealed by him.
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,

enc AS. co
ROBERT D. SALMAN

Acting Executive Director
