BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

 

BUG
Docket No: 10621-08
12 August 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 i1 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 entered active
duty in the Navy on 28 November 1966. You received nonjudicial
punishment for disobeying a lawful order and making a faise
official statement. On 18 May 1967, you were counseled and
warned that further misconduct could result in administrative
separation. You received two special courts-martial (SPCM) for
two specifications of unauthorized absence (UA) totaling about
42 days and failure to obey a lawful order. You received the
bad conduct discharge (BCD) at your second SPCM, which was
suspended for six months. On 25 March 1968, your BCD was
vacated based on about 21 days of UA. After appellate review,
you received the BCD.

The Board, in its review of your entire record, carefully
weighed all potential mitigation, such as your youth, personal
problems, and desire for veterans’ benefits. Nevertheless, the
Board concluded that these factors were not sufficient to
warrant changing your BCD because of your misconduct and
lengthy periods of UA. 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,
