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

 

TAL
Docket No: 3446-09
28 January 2010

 

*

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 13 January 2010. Your ailegations 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

12 August 1991 at age 18. On 19 March 1993, you were the subject
of a psychiatric evaluation that diagnosed you with a personality
disorder that existed prior to entry into the service. During
the evaluation it was stated, in part, that you had always been
depressed, but became increasingly moody and depressed to the
point that you almost jumped off a three story balcony, but were
stopped by your roommate. You stated in part, that you had
suicidal ideation since junior high school. On 27 March 1993,
administrative discharge action was initiated to separate you by
reason of your diagnosed personality disorder. Your commanding
officer directed that you be separated with a general
characterization by reason of a personality disorder. You were
so discharged on 30 March 1993. At that time you were assigned
an RE-4 reenlistment code. ,

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
reenlistment code given the diagnosis of a personality disorder.
Finally, an RE-4 reenlistment code is routinely assigned under
such circumstances. 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,

Executive
