BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX

Docket No: 2571-08
6 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-mémber panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records,
sitting in executive session, considered your application on
5 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.
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.
On 12 January 2005, you enlisted in the Navy at age 18. On
8 June 2007, a psychiatric evaluation diagnosed you as having
long standing schizoid and paranoid personality disorders and stated
that you were unsuitable for further service. On 25 June 2007, your
commanding officer initiated administrative separation by reason of
convenience of the government due to a personality disorder. In
connection with this processing, you acknowledged the separation
action and declined to submit a statement. On 27 June 2007, the
separation authority approved the discharge recommendation and
directed an honorable discharge by reason of convenience of the
government due to a personality disorder. On 29 June 2007, you were
so discharged and assigned an RE-3G reenlistment code.
The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potential mitigation, such as your youth. The
Board also considered your post service psychiatric evaluations that
you submitted with your petition. Nevertheless, the Board concluded
that these factors and post service psychiatric evaluations were not
sufficient to warrant changing the reason for separation or the
reenlistment code. Regarding your post service psychiatric
evaluations, they do not negate personality disorder diagnoses that
you were found to have while in the Navy. Further, regulations
authorize assignment of an RE-3G reenlistment code to service members
who are discharged due to a personality disorder and such a code is
not considered derogatory. Therefore, the Board concluded that the
discharge was proper as issued and no changes are warranted.
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,
!
