‘Docket No: 3888-08
8 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 reenlisted in the Navy on 1 July 1983
after more than seven years of prior active duty. You were
honorably discharged by reason of homosexuality on 13 October
1987 based on your admission to your commanding officer that you
were a homosexual. You were assigned a reenlistment code of

. RE-4,

As directives in effect in 1987 required the assignment of an
RE-4 reenlistment code to a Sailor discharged for homosexuality,
and as you have not demonstrated that it. would be in the interest
of justice for the Board to assign you a more favorable code as
an exception to policy, there is no basis for granting your

request for an amended reenlistment code.

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,

A\ea§
