DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX JRE
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100 Docket No. 10576-08
25 February 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 12 February 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 Marine Corps on 14
January 2008. You reportedly experienced symptoms of depression
while in boot camp, and began to think about killing yourself.
You underwent psychological evaluation on several occasions
during April 2008, and were given diagnoses of major depression,
single episode, moderate, and a personality disorder. Although
you were not considered to be mentally ill or unfit for duty by
reason of physical disability because of the depressive
disorder, it was felt that the personality disorder rendered you
unsuitable for further service. The psychologist who had
conducted the evaluations recommended that you be processed for
administrative separation in an expeditious fashion, and that
counseling requirements be waived because you represented a
continuing danger to yourself and others if retained in the
Marine Corps. On 28 May 2008, a Navy psychiatrist concurred
with that assessment and the recommendation for administrative
separation processing. You were discharged under honorable
conditions on 28 August 2008 by reason of a personality
disorder.
As a personality disorder is not considered to be a disability
under the laws administered by the military departments, and you
have not demonstrated that you were unfit for duty by reason
major depression or other disability that was incurred in or
aggravated by your service in the Marine Corps, the Board was
unable to recommend corrective any action in your case.
Accordingly, your application has been denied. The names and
votes of the members of the panel will be furnished upon
request.
If you believe that you should have received an honorable
discharge, rather than a discharge under honorable conditions,
you should complete the enclosed DD Form 293 and mail it to the
Naval Discharge Review Board at the address listed in the form.
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,
\s .
