BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100 CRS
Docket No: 1798-08
19 November 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 19 November 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. In addition, the Board considered the letter
furnished by Headquarters Marine Corps (HQMC) dated 3 September
2008, 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 HOMC letter.
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 reason for separation
should be changed, since you have not exhausted your
administrative remedies 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,
Enclosures

MMER/RE
3 Sep 08
This is in reply to your inquiry of February 25, 2008 regarding the
assignment of your reenlistment code.
Your service record has been reviewed and it has been determined that
you should have been assigned a reenlistment code of RE-3F (Failure to
complete recruit training) instead of RE-3C (When not eligible and
disqualifying factor is not covered by any other code) on 1 September
2002.
The appropriate correction to your DD Form 214 is being made and will
be forwarded to you under separate correspondence. If after thirty
days subsequent to receipt of this letter you have not yet received a
DD Form 215 correcting your reenlistment code as stated above, contact
the Commandant of the Marine Corps (MMSB-10) to determine the status
of the correction.
The reenlistment code assigned by the Marine Corps is an
administrative marking, which reflects the member’s acceptability for
reenlistment at the time of separation from active service.
I trust the foregoing information satisfactorily answers your inquiry.
