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

JRE
Docket No. 04734-09
9 March 2010

 

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 4 March 2010. 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. In this regard, the Board was not persuaded
that you were unfit for duty by reason of physical disability
when you were released from active duty in 1993. It noted that
you remained in the Navy Reserve until 7 March 1999, and there
is no indication in the available records that you were
considered not physically qualified for service at any time
between 1993 and 1999. Your receipt of disability ratings from
the Department of Veterans Affairs is not probative of the
existence of error or injustice in your Navy record because the
VA awards disability ratings without regard to the issue of
fitness for military duty.
In view of the foregoing, 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,

en R

Executive Dir r
