BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100 REC

Docket No: 113558-08
21 October 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 7 October 2003. 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 Marine Corps and began a period of active
duty on 1 June 1982, at age 24. On 9 June 1982, you received
nonjudicial punishment (NIP) for two specification of disobeying .
an order. On 11 June 1982, you received NUP for unauthorized
absence (UA). “

Administrative separation action was initiated by reason of
misconduct due to a pattern of misconduct. You waived your
rights to consult counsel, submit a statement or have your case
heard by an administrative: discharge board (ADB). Your
commanding officer forwarded his recommendation that you be
discharged under other than honorable conditions by reason of
misconduct. The discharge authority directed an other than
honorable discharge by reason of misconduct. On 25 June 1982,
you were so discharged. At that time you were assigned an RE-4
reenlistment code.

The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such ag your youth, conduct
and performance, and overall record of service. Nevertheless,
the Board found that these factors were not sufficient to warrant
changing the reenlistment code or characterization of your
discharge, given your misconduct. The Board also noted that you
waived the right to an ADB, your best opportunity for retention
or a better characterization of service. 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.
Consequentiy, 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,
