BAN
Docket Wo: 10589-08
31 August 2009

    

Dear iene,

This is in reference to your application for correction of your
naval record pursuant to the provisions of Title 10, 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 27 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 the evidence submitted was insufficient
to establish the existence of probable material error or
injustice.

You enlisted in the Navy on 14 August 2003, and served without.
disciplinary incident. However, in September 2005, you were
self-referred to a mental health professional due to your desire
for a discharge and associated psychological issues. During your
evaluation, you indicated that you did not want to be in the
Navy. Additionally, when directly questioned about suicide,
homicide, or desire to enter an unauthorized absence status, you
denied all these tendencies. However, your desire to be —
discharged may have increased your potential for self-injury or
misconduct. Further, you were diagnosed with a narcissistic
personality disorder and recommended for separation. Therefore,
on 1 November 2005, you were separated with an honorable
discharge and an RE-4 reenlistment code due to your diagnosed
personality disorder.
The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth and psychological report dated 28 January 2008.
Nevertheless, the Board concluded these factors were not
sufficient to warrant changing your reenlistment code because of
your diagnosed personality disorder. 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,
