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

 

TUR
Docket No: 4036-09
2 April 2010

 

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.

BR three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval
Records, sitting in executive session, considered your
application on 30 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.

You enlisted in the Navy on 3 March 1997 at age 20 and began a
period of active duty. You served without disciplinary incident
wntil 21 March 2000, when you received nonjudicial punishment
(NTP) for dereliction of duty.

Your record reflects that during the period from 8 April 2002 to
15 March 2007 you were repeatedly counselled regarding your
failure to meet physical readiness test standards due to physical
Fitness assessment (PFA) failures. During this period you were
also not recommended for advancement or retention as a result of
your PFA failures. In this regard, your separation performance
evaluation for the period from 16 March to 21 June 2007 states,
in part, that due to your failure of three PFAs in a four year
period, you were being administratively separated, and that you
were not recommended for advancement nor retention. However, the
discharge authority determined that there was not enough time
remaining in your current enlistment to administratively process
you for separation. As a result, on 21 June 2007, at the
expiration of your enlistment, you were honorably discharged by
reason of nonretention on active duty and were assigned an RE-3M
reenlistment code.

The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your desire to change your reenlistment code, be reinstated to
active duty without a break in service and in a higher paygrade
with full back pay and allowances, and to have “improper”
documents removed from your record. The Board also considered
the memorandum provided in support of your requests for
correction of your naval record. Nevertheless, the Board
concluded these factors were not sufficient to warrant relief in
your case. The Board concluded that your misconduct, PFA
failures, and nonrecommendation for retention and advancement
were sufficiently supported by the evidence of record.
Accordingly, your application has been denied.

The Board suggested that you may wish to apply for a waiver of
your RE-3M reenlistment code with branches of the armed forces

other than the Navy.

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 PF
Executive or
