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

Docket No. 07956-08
26 January 2009

 

 

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 15 January 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. In this regard, the Board concluded that
you were properly discharged with a disability rating on 20% for
a seizure disorder. Although it appears that you would have
received a disability rating of 40% had your case been referred
to the Physical Evaluation Board in 2006 or early 2007, rather
than in October 2007, you would have been transferred to the
Temporary Disability Retired List, rather than permanently
retired. Had you been transferred to the TDRL in 2006 or early
2007, your disability rating would have been lowered to 20% in
2008 and you would have been discharged with entitlement to
severance pay, as you did not have any additional seizures.
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,

Wes .
W. DEAN
