Docket No: 4393-09
22 May 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 20 May 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 23 September
1986. You received four nonjudicial punishments for offenses
that included an unauthorized absence» wrongful appropriation of
a government vehicle, absence from appointed place of duty, and
willful disobedience of a lawful order. :
On 21 July 1989 your commanding officer recommended that you be
separated from the Navy with a discharge under other than
honorable conditions by reason of misconduct due to a pattern of
misconduct. After being informed of the recommendation, you
elected to waive the right to present your case to an
administrative*discharge board. The recommendation was approved
by the separation authority, and you were separated with a
discharge under other than honorable conditions on 24 August
1989.
In its review of your application, the Board carefully considered
your contention to the effect that you were the victim of
homosexual harassment, which contributed to your acts of
indiscipline, but found it to he unsubstantiated and insufficient
to warrant the approval of your request for corrective action.
Accordingly, and as you have not demonstrated that it would be in
the interest of justice for the Board to upgrade your discharye,
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.
Conseguently, 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 PFET
