CRS
Docket No: 6253-08
10 April 2009
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 pamel of the Board for Correction of Naval
Records, sitting in executive session, considered your
application. on 8 April 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 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 27 April 1972.
You received seven nonjudicial punishments for offenses that
included unauthorized absences, wrongful possession and use of
“speed”, absence from appointed place of duty, failure to obey a
lawful order, use of provoking words, and failure to go to your
appointed place of duty.
On 9 July 1973 your commanding officer recommended that you be
separated from the Navy with a general discharge by reason of
unfitness due to frequent involvement of a discreditable nature
with military authorities. The recommendation was approved by the
separation authority, and you received a general discharge on 8
August 1973.
In its review of your application, the Board carefully considered
your contention that you were suffering from posttraumatic stress
disorder while on active duty, and that the acts of misconduct
which resulted in your discharge were symptoms of that condition.
The Board could not find any evidence in the available records or
your application which corroborates that contention.
Accordingly, and as you have not demonstrated that it would be in
the interest of jiistice for the Board to upgrade your discharge
as a matter of clemency, 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,
\p®uG
