SIN
Docket No: 11890-0908
29 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 27 October 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, reguiations,
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 and began a period of active duty on

~S.July. 2991 at age 17. On 9 July and 25 October 1991,-you

received nonjudicial punishment (NJP) for eight instances of
disrespect, three instances of disobedience, two periods of
unauthorized absence totaling three days, making a false official
statement, and possession of an unauthorized identification card.

On 25 October 1991, administrative discharge action was initiated
by reason of misconduct due to commission of a serious offense.
You waived your rights to consult counsel, submit a statement or
have your case heard by an administrative discharge board (ADB).
On 3 December 1991, 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 due to commission of a serious offense. on

20 December 1991 you were so discharged.
The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and short
period of service. Nevertheless, the Board found that these
factors were not sufficient to warrant recharacterization of your
discharge because of your two NUP’s for serious offenses.
Finally, the Board noted that you waived the right to an ADB,
your best chance 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 casé 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,
W. DEAN PFELF ir
Executive D GE QE
