DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
TUR
Docket No: 6554-09
3 June 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.
A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval
Records, sitting in executive session, considered your
application on 2 June 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.
Rfter 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 20 May 1985 at age 18 and advanced to
paygrade E-3 on 1 July 1986. You served without disciplinary
incident until 21 October 1986, when you received nonjudicial
punishment (NJP) for a one day period of unauthorized absence and
malingering. The punishment imposed was restriction and extra
duty for seven days and a 5100 forfeiture of pay. A portion of
the punishment was suspended for six months.
On 28 January and 20 February 1987 you were diagnosed with a
mixed personality disorder which adversely affected your
performance. Your record reflects that on 20 April and again on
14 November 1987 you were eligible for advancement to corporal /
paygrade E-4, but not recommended for promotion because of your
substandard performance.
On 6 April 1988, while serving in paygrade E-3, you were
honorably released from active duty and transferred to the Navy
Reserve, and were assigned an RE-4 reenlistment code. On 19 May
1993 you were honorably discharged at the expiration of your
enlistment.
The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth and desire to have your record reflect that you were
promoted to paygrade E-4. It also considered your request for a
Good Conduct Medal and to be reissued a Sea Service Deployment
Ribbon. Nevertheless, the Board concluded these factors were not
sufficient to warrant favorable action to your requests. Your
record reflects that you were honorably discharged after serving
a total of 2 years, 4 months, and 16 days, and as such you did
not meet the criteria required for award of a Good Conduct Medal.
In this regard, during the period in which you served, a Marine
had to honorably serve without disciplinary incident for four
continuous years on active duty to be awarded a Good Conduct
Medal. Finally, you may obtain a Sea Service Deployment Ribbon
from a civilian dealer of military supplies. Accordingly, your
application has been denied.
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,
