Docket No. 08604-08
15 May 2009

 

Dear ee

 

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.

You requested removing the fitness xeports for 7 December 2004
to 31 October 2005, 1 November 2005 to 31 October 2006 and 1
November 2006 to 31 October 2007; revising the report for 1
November to 28 December 2007 to remove reference to your
promotion recommendation in the immediately preceding report;
adjusting your time in service for retirement to reflect active
duty service as a Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC)
midshipman; correcting your Officer Data Card (ODC) to remove
reference to designator 1320/1325; granting you a special
selection board for the Fiscal Year 09 Line Commander Selection

Board; and filing your fitness report for 29 December 2007 to 28
July 2008.

and filing a fitness report were not considered, as you have not
exhausted your administrative remedies. You May submit these

requests to the Navy Personnel Command@ (NPC), PERS-31 for the
ODC and PERS-32 for the fitnese report.

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval
Records, sitting in executive session, considered your ,
application on 14 May 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 consisited
of your application, together with all material submitted in
support thereof, your naval record and applicable statutes,
regulations and policies. In addition, the Board considered the
advisory opinions furnished by the Navy Personnel Command dated
22 October 2008, 18 December 2008 with enclosure and 29 April
2009, copies of which are attached. The Board also considered
your letter dated 1 April 2009.

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 connection, the Board substantially
concurred with the comments contained in the advisory opinions
dated 22 October and 18 December 2008.

Specifically regarding the contested fitness report ending

31 October 2005, the Board found the misspelied word
"causalities"” would not mislead reviewers of your record. The
Board found it unobjectionable for the reporting senior to
express his expectation as to how you would perform in the
future. Finally, the Board found no "veiled" adverse matter. |

Concerning the report ending 31 October 2006, the Board found it
an immaterial error that the reporting senior failed to include.
a comment explaining the absence of a promotion recommendation,
since he did say you had "earned my strongest possible personal
recommendation for promotion to Commander." The Board likewise
found it an immaterial error that block 39 ("Tactical
Performance") was left blank, since the applicable instruction
permitted that block to be marked "not observed," and the
reporting senior did so mark several other blocks. Finally,
while the Board did not condone the late submission of this
report, it was umable to find this invalidated it.

The Board found it unobjectionable that the report ending

28 December 2007 referred to your less favorable promotion
recommendation in the immediately preceding report from the same
reporting senior, whose removal the Board did not find
warranted,

Since the Board found no material defect in your performance
record, it had no grounds to grant you consideration by a
special selection board.

In view of the above, 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,
SS FE
