DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
JRE
Docket No. 06529-08
25 February 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 panel of the Board for Correction of Naval
Records, sitting in executive session, considered your
application on 12 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 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 26 September
1966. On 28 March 1968 you were given a tentative diagnosis of
a passive aggressive personality. You were hospitalized on 28
June 1968 and given a diagnosis of depressive reaction. On 7
October 1968, the diagnosis was changed to passive aggressive
personality characterized by lack of industry, emotional
instability, lack of responsibility, and unreliability. You
were released from the hospital on that date and returned to
duty. You remained on active duty until 8 July 1970, when you
were released from active duty by reason of reduction in
authorized strength. You were honorably discharged from the
Navy Reserve on 25 September 1972. In the years following your
discharge, the Department of Veterans Affairs denied your
requests for service connection for multiple conditions, to
include posttraumatic stress disorder.
The Board concluded that there is no credible evidence which
demonstrates that you were exposed to significant trauma during
your period of naval service, that you suffered from
posttraumatic stress disorder prior to your discharge or that
you were unfit for duty by reason of physical disability that
was incurred in or aggravated by your naval service. Although
you maintain that you have never been diagnosed with a
personality disorder, available Navy and VA medical records
controvert that assertion.
In view of the foregoing, 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,
\ wane
