BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
, 2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DG 20370-5100 i

SIN
Docket No: 00988-09
20 November 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 17 November 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 and began a period of active
duty on 12 December 1972 at age 17. On 28 June 1973, you were
convicted by civil authorities of felony automobile theft and
sentenced to the Youth Authority of the State of California.

On 30 July 1973, you were processed for an administrative
discharge by reason of unfitness. You elected to waive the right
to have your case heard by a board of officers or to make a
statement. On 4 September 1983, your commanding officer
recommended an undesirable discharge by reason of misconduct.

On 5 October 1973, separation authority directed an undesirable
@ischarge. You were so discharged on 12 October 1973.

The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and
overall record of service. Nevertheless, the Board concluded
these factors were not sufficient to warrant recharacterization
of your discharge because of your conviction by civil authorities
for a serious offense and ensuing incarceration. 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,

W. DEAN PF
Executive Di Oo
