DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

 

BAN ,
Docket No: 00152-09
19 October 2009

 

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 16 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, 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 on 26 September 2005, and served
without disciplinary incident. However, on 14 March 2006, you
voluntarily wrote a statement to your commanding officer stating
you had a history of depression, anger, had previously attempted
suicide, and no longer wanted to be in the military. Therefore,
on 27 March 2006, you were separated with an uncharacterized |
discharge and an RE-4 reenlistment code due to your self-admittal
of a pre-existing personality disorder.

 

The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth, statements from a psychiatrist, and personal
references. Nevertheless, the Board concluded these factors were
not sufficient to warrant changing your reenlistment code because
of your 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,

lnQen Gh!

W. DEAN PFEIF
Executive Directo
