BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

 

SJN .
Docket No: 07949-08
25 June 2009

 

This is in reference to your application for correction of your
naval record pursuant to the provisions of Title 40 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 16 June 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 service on
27 June 1974 at age 17. On 22 July 1974, you appeared before an
Aptitude Board convened for the purpose of determining your
qualifications for further service. You were referred to this
Board because of your poor performance and progress, and lack of
motivation and effort. It was determined that you were unable to
adjust to service demands and it was recommended that you be
administratively discharged from the service. Based on the
information currently contained in your record it appears you
were notified of pending administrative separation action and
were afforded all of your procedural rights, including the
opportunity to submit a statement on your behalf. Your
commanding officer directed separation by reason of unsuitability
with an honorable discharge. On 1 August 1974 you were so
discharged.
The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and
relatively short period of active service. Nevertheless, the
Board found that these factors were not sufficient to warrant a
change to the reason for your discharge given the findings of the
Aptitude Board. 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,

\ON) aes
