Docket No: 5536-07
28 January 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 23 January 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.
You enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserve on 15 March 1957 and
served in an excellent manner for over five years, when you
transferred to the Individual Ready Reserve to complete the
remainder of your six year military obligation. You were
honorably discharged on 14 March 1963 at the end of your six year
military obligation. During, your service you were on active.
duty for about 81 days while undergoing recruit training and
performed 15 days active duty for training on four occasions.
In your application, you are requesting that your enlistment
contract be changed to show that you enlisted in the Regular
Marine Corps so that your record will show that you are eligible
for a five point veterans' preference and you can obtain a
government job.
It is clear that you voluntarily enlisted in the Marine Corps
Reserve and there was no single period of active duty which was
long enough to require the issuance of a DD Form 214. Since you
have been treated no differently than others in your Situation,
the Board could not find an error or injustice in your case.
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,
woes
