10 July 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 8 July 2005. 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
12 February 1985 at age 20. On 7 June 1985, a mental health
evaluation diagnosed you with a personality disorder after you
stated, in part, that you were not going to stay in the Navy,
that you hated yourself, and what ever you had to do to get out,
you would do. Further in the report you stated you openly
threatened to kill yourself if you were not separated, would take
an overdose of pills, go on an unauthorized absence, or to use
Marijuana in pursuit of a. discharge.
On 25 June 1985, you were processed for separation by reason of
convenience of the government due to the diagnosed personality
disorder. You elected to receive copies of documents to be
forwarded to the separation authority, but waived all other
procedural rights. On 1 July 1985, your commanding officer |,
forwarded your case to the separation authority and on 10 July
1985, the separation authority directed an honorable discharge.
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 concluded
these factors were not sufficient to warrant changing the reason
for your discharge given the diagnosed personality disorder,
threatening gestures, and suicidal ideation. 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,
