Docket No: 08204-08
10 July 2003
This igs 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 8 July 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 September 1998 at age 19. On 9 October 1998, a mental health
evaluation was conducted after you stated, in part, that you were
feeling trapped and wanted to kill yourself... The report further
stated that your problems began when you were in a delayed entry
program, and decided that you did not want to be in the military,
but were told you signed a contract. It was determined that you
had an adjustment disorder with depressed mood. Further, that
because of your inability to adapt to the stressors of the
military and your in service suicide attempt, it was recommended
that you receive an expeditious separation.
‘Based on the mental health evaluation, you were processed for
separation by reason of erroneous enlistment due to the
adjustment disorder. On 16 October 1998, after you were advised
of your rights, you elected to receive copies of documents to be
forwarded to the separation authority, but waived all your other
procedural rights. Subsequently, on 22 October 1998 you were
discharged with an entry level separation by reason of erroneous
enlistment. At that time, you were assigned a reenlistment code
of RE-4.
The Board noted that applicable regulations require the
assignment of an RE-4 reenlistment code to individuals who are
separated due to erroneous enlistment based on a pre-service
medical condition. The Board thus concluded that there is no
error or injustice in your reenlistment code. 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,
W. DEAN
