BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5190 |

 

JRE
Docket No. 03589-09
3 August 2009

 

This igs 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 30 July 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 that the evidence submitted was
insufficient to establish the existence of probable material
error or injustice.

The Board found that on 10 January i977 the Physical Evaluation
Board (PEB) found you unfit for duty due to an intracranial
arachnoid cyst and residuals of its surgical removal from your
cranium, which it rated at 100% disabling. As there is no
indication in the available records that residuals of the knee
surgery you underwent in 1971 was disabling in 1977, it was not
considered by the PEB, and there is no basis for the Board to
add that condition to your disability evaluation proceedings.
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,

Wood

W. DEAN PFEIF
Executive °
