BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

 

CRS
Docket No: 5509-08
28 October 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 8 October 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 enlisted in the Navy on 11 August 2004.
On 1 November 2007 your commanding officer recommended that you
be separated from the Navy with an honorable discharge by reason
of physical standards due to your repeated failures of physical
fitness assessments. You were honorably discharged on 5 November
2007, and assigned a reentry code of RE-4 as directed by your
commanding officer. For reasons unknown to the Board, an entry
of that date in the local Navy Standard Integrated Personnel
System (NSIPS) shows that you received a reentry code of RE-3F.

The Board noted that a reentry code of RE-3F or RE-4 may be
assigned to a service member discharged by reason of physical
Standards. A code of RE-4 is generally assigned in cases such as
yours, where there is evidence of lack of motivation. The
reentry code of RE-3F listed in NSIPS does not supersede or
invalidate the code directed by your commanding officer and
entered on your DD Form 214. 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,

Wer

W. DEANYP
Executive LC Oo

    An RE-4 reenlistment code means that the individual is ineligible for reenlistment without prior approval from Commander, Naval Personnel Command. Absent evidence to the contrary, a presumption exists that action by the Navy to discharge you by reason of "failed physical standards" was both appropriate and proper. Since you received the most favorable reenlistment code authorized by regulation, the Board could find no error or injustice in the assigned reenlistment code.
