DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-51 00

 

BAN
Docket No: 04011-08

10 February 2009

 

This is in reference to your application for correction of your
naval record pursuant to the provisions of Title 10, 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 5 February 2009. 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 consi

record, the Board found the evidence
to establish the existence of probable material error or

injustice.

You enlisted in the Navy on 24 January 1990, and served without
disciplinary sncident until 21 March 1991, when you received an
nonjudicial punishment (NOP) for an unauthorized absence (UA) ,

but your sentence was suspended for six months. However, on 11
ntence was vacated due to further misconduct.

Shortly thereafter, you received the following NUP’s: on 11 April
1991, for UA; on 14 May 1991, for UA; and on 15 May 1992, for the
wrongful use of a controlled substance. On 5 June 1992, you were
recommended for separation with an other than honorable (OTH)
dischargeaj due to drug abuse. On 7 July 1992, the separation
authority approved the recommendation, and on 13 July 1992, you
were separated with an OTH discharge and an RE-4 reenlistment

code.

 

The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth and the passage of time. Nevertheless, the Board
concluded these factors were not sufficient to warrant
recharacterization of your discharge because of the seriousness
of your misconduct. 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,
