Docket No: 06956-08
21 May 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 13 May 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 the evidence submitted was insufficient
to establish the existence of probable material error or
injustice.
You enlisted in the Navy and began a period of active duty on
18 June 1987 at age 17. On 6 February 1990, you received
nonjudicial punishment (NJP) for a brief period of unauthorized
absence (UA). On 8 November 1990, you were convicted by special
court-martial (SPCM) of three periods of UA totaling 69 days,
missing movement, wrongful use and introduction of marijuana
aboard ship, and larceny. You were sentenced to a reduction in
paygrade, a forfeiture of pay, confinement at hard labor, anda
bad conduct discharge (BCD). You received the BCD after
appellate review was completed.
The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and
overall record of service. Nevertheless, the Board found that
these factors were not sufficient to warrant recharacterization
of your discharge given your record of NUP and conviction by SPCM
Eor very serious offenses. 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,
