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

 

TAL

Docket No: 01887-09
30 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 18 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 Navy Reserve and began a period of active
duty on 25 duly 1989 at age 18. You were the subject of several
psychiatric evaluations from the period of 30 August 1989 through
10 May 1990 that diagnosed you with a personality disorder with
schizotypal features that existed prior to entry into the
service. During the evaluation it was stated, in part, that you
were seen by a psychiatrist at age 13 following an aborted
attempt to stab yourself with a knife. You also stated you have
feelings of emptiness, daily suicidal thoughts and crying spells.
On 11 May 1990, you were notified of pending administrative
separation action due to your diagnosed personality disorder. On
22 May 1990, your commanding officer directed that you be
discharged by reason of erroneous entry. You received a general
discharge on 11 May 1990.

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 found that
these factors were not sufficient to warrant a change in your

characterization of service given the diagnosis of a 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,
W. DEAN FPER

Executiv
