BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

JSR
Docket No: 9094-08
20 November 2008
Dear NEAR
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 that the fitness report for 1 August 1999 to 9
‘April 2000 be modified by removing, from section I (reporting
senior’s “Directed and Additional Comments”), “[You] had little
opportunity to lead Marines during this period.”; modifying the
fitness report for 20 July 2002 to 1 June 2003 by deleting, from
section K.4 (reviewing officer’s comments), “Must strive to
achieve aviation designations in the mission commander arena.”;
and modifying the fitness report for 2 June to 26 September 2003
by deleting, from section I, “with minimal
guidance/supervision,” so the sentence at the end of which this
language appears will read as follows: “Capable of meeting new
Situations head-on in a resourceful manner.”
It is noted that the Commandant of the Marine Corps (CMC) has
directed the modifications you requested, except that concerning
the report for 2 June to 26 September 2003.
A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval
Records, sitting in executive session, considered your
application on 20 November 2008. 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. In addition, the Board considered the
report of the Headquarters Marine Corps Performance Evaluation
Review Board (PERB), dated 18 September 2008, a copy of which is
attached.
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 report of the PERB.
Accordingly, your application for relief beyond that effected by
CMC 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,
Enclosure
