DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BCARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100 REC
Docket No: 02199-09
18 December 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 16 December 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 and began a period of active duty on
13 April 1987, at age 22. You served without incident over three
years until 19 July 1990, when you received nonjudicial
punishment (NIP) for wrongful use of marijuana and cocaine. On
27 July 1990, administrative discharge action was initiated to
separate you by reason of misconduct due to drug abuse. You
waived your rights to consult counsel, submit a statement or have
your case heard by an administrative discharge board (ADB).
Your commanding officer forwarded his recommendation that you be
discharged under other than honorable conditions by reason of
misconduct due to drug abuse. On 17 August 1990, the discharge
authority directed an other than honorable discharge by reason of
misconduct due to drug abuse. You were so discharged on
30 August 1990.
The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such ag 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 misconduct that resulted in an
NIP for drug use. Finally, the Board noted that you waived the
right to an ADB, your best opportunity for retention or a better
characterization of service. 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,
Yeas
W. DEAN PFE
