BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
REC
Docket No: 06448-09
13 May 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 11 May 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 the evidence submitted was insufficient
to establish the existence of probable material error or
injustice.
You enlisted in the Navy and began a period of active duty on
20 September 1985, at age 19. On 14 June 1985, a mental health
evaluation was conducted, and you were given a diagnosis of
having a borderline personality disorder, with suicidal ideation.
You disclosed that you had a history of chronic suicidal ideation
with five failed attempts prior to your enlistment, which was not
disclosed on your in processing paperwork. Based on the mental
health evaluation, you were processed for separation by reason of
a diagnosed personality disorder. After you were advised of your
rights, you elected to receive copies of documents to be
forwarded to the separation authority, but waived all your other
procedural rights. Subsequently, on 13 September 1985, you were
separated with a general discharge by reason of a diagnosed
personality disorder. At that time, you were assigned an RE-4
reenlistment code.
In its review of your application, the Board considered all
mitigating factors, such as your youth. However, the Board found
these factors were insufficient to warrant changing your
reenlistment code or characterization of service, due to your
diagnosed personality disorder. The Board noted that applicable
regulations authorize the assignment of an RE-4 reenlistment code
to individuals who are separated due to medical conditions that
interfere with duty performance. The Board thus concluded that
there is no error or injustice in your reenlistment code.
Accordingly, 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,
ee Ao
