BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5106

 

CRS
Docket No: 8532-08
29 September 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 5 August 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.

The Board found that you enlisted in the Navy on 4 March 1965.
On 24 September 1965 you received nonjudicial punishment for two
periods of unauthorized absence. You underwent psychological
evaluation on 27 September 1965 and were given a diagnosis of a
emotionally unstable personality. On 10 December 1965 you
received a general discharge by reason of unsuitability due to a
personality disorder. You were not recommended for reenlistment.

The Board found that you did not qualify for an honorable
discharge because your conduct mark average of 2.0 and overall

trait average of 2.4 were below the required minimum averages
which you did not attain because of poor performance. The Board
carefully considered your contention to the effect that your poor
performance was related to a mental disorder, but found it
insufficient to warrant granting you a fully honorable discharge
and” recommending~you for-reenlistment .— Accordingly; -your-—- >
application has been denied. The names and votes of thé membexys
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 PRETRFRE
Executive Dilréc
