REVIEW OF NAVAL RECORD
Ref: (a) Title 10 U.S.C. 1552
Encl: (1) Case Summary
(2) Subject's naval record
1. Pursuant to the provisions of reference (a), Petitioner
applied to this Board requesting his naval record be corrected by
changing the reentry code he was assigned on 3 November 2006.
2. The Board, consisting of Mr. hans . ni: and Mr.
a Me reviewed Petitioner's allegations of error and
injustice on 22 April 2009 and, pursuant to its regulations,
determined that the corrective action indicated below should be
taken on the available evidence of record. Documentary material
considered by the Board consisted of the enclosures, naval
records, and applicable statutes, regulations and policies.
3. The Board, having reviewed all the facts of record pertaining
to Petitioner's allegations of error and injustice, finds as
follows:
a. Before applying to this Board, Petitioner exhausted all
administrative remedies available under existing law and
regulations within the Department of the Navy.
b. Petitioner enlisted in the Navy on 11 October 2006. On
17 October 2006 he was diagnosed with keratoconus in both eyes, a
disqualifying disorder of the cornea, which existed prior to his
enlistment. On 3 November 2006, he was separated from the Navy
with an entry level separation by reason of his failure to meet
medical/physical procurement standards and assigned a reentry
code of RE-4.
c. Applicable directives require the assignment of an RE-4
reentry code when a Sailor is discharged for failing to meet
medical/physical procurement standards. A Sailor who is found to
be not physically qualified tor enlistment may, in the
alternative, be separated by reason of erroneous entry and
assiconed a reentry code of RE-3E or RE-4.
CONCLUSION:
Upon review and consideration of all the evidence of record the
Board concludes that Petitioner's request warrants favorable
action. The Board believes that the reason for discharge should
be changed to erroneous entry since Petitioner was unaware of his
condition when he was accepted for enlistment. Accordingly, the
Board recommends that Petitioner’s reason for separation be
changed to erroneous entry.
The Board also concludes that an RE-3E reentry code should be
assigned since there is no evidence that Petitioner had any
performance or disciplinary infractions during his period of
service and his record does not otherwise support the more
stigmatizing code of RE-4.
RECOMMENDATION:
a. That Petitioner’s naval record be corrected to show that on 3
November 2006 he received an entry level separation by reason of
erroneous entry and was assigned a reentry code of RE-3E.
b. That a copy of this Report of Proceedings be filed in
Petitioner's naval record.
4. It is certified that a quorum was present at the Board's
review and deliberations, and that the foregoing is a true and
complete record of the Board's proceedings in the above entitled
matter.

5. Pursuant to the delegation of authority set out in Section
6(e) of the revised Procedures of the Board for Correction of
Naval Records (32 Code of Federal Regulations, Section 723.6(e))
and having assured compliance with its provisions, it is hereby
announced that the foregoing corrective action, taken under the
authority of reference (a), has been approved by the Board on
behalf of the Secretary of the Navy.
