DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY

BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX

WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
CRS

Docket No: 4030-09
21 August 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 19 August 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 you enlisted in the Navy on 22 January 1930.
On 12 February 1993 you received nonjudicial punishment for
committing sodomy. On 25 February 1993 your commanding officer
recommended that you be honorably discharged by reason of
homosexuality. The recommendation was approved, by the
separation authority, and you were honorably discharged on 19 May

1993 .

The Board carefully considered your unsubstantiated contentions
to the effect that your misconduct was caused by mental iliness
and you were not responsible for your actions. The Board was not
persuaded that you did not know right from wrong and could not
adhere to the right, and it concluded that you have not
demonstrated that your reason for discharge is erroneous or
unjust. Accordingly, your application has been denied. The
names and votes of the membexs 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 P
Executive Di
