BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX

WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
CRS
Docket No: 5871-08
8 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. In addition, the Board considered a letter
furnished by the Navy Personnel Command (NPC) dated 27 November
2007, 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 NPC letter.
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,

Executive Di

Dear Mr. iia

This letter is in response to your inquiry on behalf of
ii : concerning the entitlement to the Combat

TR ei bbon (CAR) .

Principal eligibility standards require that an individual
must have participated in “bona fide” ground or surface combat
fire fight or action during which he was under enemy fire and
his performance while under fire was satisfactory. Service in
a combat area does not automatically entitle a service member

to the CAR.

A review of @agiiiiagges personnel records and-available
resources fail to verify his entitlement to the CAR. If he’
served in a riverine and coastal operations, assaults,
patrols, sweeps, ambushed, convoys, amphibious landing and
Similar activities, we will do a second review if he provides
the specifics regarding his actions during the fire fight.

 

Sincerely,

 

Supervisor, Retired Records Unit
Records Support Branch
By direction of the Commander
