DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

 

BAN
Docket No: 6731-09
15 March 2010

 

This is in reference to your application for correction of your
naval récord 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 3 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 the evidence submitted was insufficient
to establish the existence of probable material error or
injustice.

You first enlisted in the Navy on 24 May 1993, and received an
honorable discharge. You reenlisted in May 1996, and served
without disciplinary incident until 25 October 1999, when you
were convicted at a general court-martial (GCM) for conspiracy,
larceny, forgery, and fraud against the United States government.
‘Your sentence at the GCM included five years confinement and a
bad conduct discharge (BCD). After appellate review, on 16
January 2003, you were separated from the naval service with a
BCD and an RE-4 reenlistment code.

The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth and belief that enough time has elapsed to warrant
upgrading your discharge. Nevertheless, the Board concluded
these factors were not sufficient to warrant recharacterization

j
of your discharge because of the seriousness of your misconduct.
Finally, there is no provision of law or in Navy reguiations that
allow for recharacterization of service due solely to the passage
of time. 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,

Nos

W. DEAN P F
