BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX

WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

CRS
Docket No: 4373-09
11 May 2009

 

From: Chairman, Board for Correction of Naval Records

 

 

 

 

 

To: Secretary of the Navy

Subj: FORM! i —_ ; REVIEW OF
NAVAL RECORD

Ref: (a) Title 10 U.S.C. 1552

Encl: (1) Case Summary
(2) Subject's naval record

1. Pursuant to the provisions of reference (a), Petitioner

applied to this Board requesting his naval record be corrected by
changing the reentry code he was assigned on 10 October 2006.

 

2. The Board, consisting of Messrs@ a

reviewed Petitioner's allegations of error and injustice on 6-May
2009 and, pursuant to its regulations, determined that the
corrective action indicated below should be taken on the
available evidence of record. Documentary material considered by
the Board consisted of the enclosures, naval records, and
applicable statutes, regulations and policies.

3. The Board, having reviewed all the facts of record pertaining
to Petitioner's allegations of error and injustice, finds as
follows:

a. Before applying to this Board, Petitioner exhausted all
administrative remedies available under existing law and
regulations within the Department of the Navy.

b. Petitioner enlisted in the Navy on 6 September 2006. On
26 September 2006 he was diagnosed with chronic knee pain
described as Osgood-Schlatter’s disease. On 10 October 2006, he
received an uncharacterized entry level separation by reason of
his failure to meet medical/physical procurement standards and
was assigned a reentry code of RE-4.

 

c. Applicable directives require the assignment of an RE-4
reentry code when a Sailor is discharged for failing to meet
medical/physical procurement standards. A Sailor who is found to
be not physically qualified for enlistment may, in the
alternative, be separated by reason of erroneous entry and
assigned a reentry code of RE-3E or RE-4. At the time of
Petitioner’:; discharge, a reentry code of RE-4 was required for a
diagnosis of chronic knee pain.
CONCLUSION:

Upon review and consideration of all the evidence of record the
Board concludes that Petitioner's request warrants favorable
action. The Board believes that the reason for discharge should
be changed to erroneous entry since Petitioner was unaware of his
condition when he was accepted for enlistment. Accordingly, the
Board recommends that Petitioner’s reason for separation be
changed to erroneous entry.

The Board also concludes that an RE-3EF reentry code should be
assigned since there is no evidence that Petitioner had any
performance or disciplinary infractions during his period of
service and his record does not otherwise support the more
stigmatizing code of RE-4.

 

 

RECOMMENDATION:

a. That Petitioner’s naval record be corrected to show that on
10 October 2006 he received an entry level separation by reason
of erroneous entry and was assigned a reentry code of RE-3E.

 

 

b. That a copy of this Report of Proceedings be filed in
Petitioner's naval record.

4. It is certified that a quorum was present at the Board's
review and deliberations, and that the foregoing is a true and
complete record of the Board's proceedings in the above entitled

matter.

authority of reference (a), has been approved by the Board on
behalf of the Secretary of the Navy.
