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

 

TJIR ,
Docket No: 2020-09
11 March 20106

 

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 9 March 2010. The names and votes of the members
of the panel will be furnished upon request. 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.

Although your record is incomplete, it appears that you enlisted
in the Navy on 10 January 1975 at age 19 and served without
disciplinary incident. Subsequently, you were processed for an
administrative separation by reason of convenience of the
government. The discharge authority directed discharge under
honorable conditions, and on 3 November 1975, while serving in
paygrade E-2, you were issued a general discharge and were
assigned an RE-4 reenlistment code.

The Board, in its review of your record, again although
incomplete, and application, carefully weighed all potentially
mitigating factors, such as your youth and desire to upgrade your
discharge and change the narrative reason for separation for
medical purposes. It also considered the medical documentation
provided in support of your case. Nevertheless, the Board
concluded these factors were not sufficient to warrant
recharacterization of your discharge or a change in the narrative
reason for separation. Accordingly, your application has been
denied.

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,
