DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20376-5100

 

BAN
Docket No: 07257-0939
27 May 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 27 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 on 16 November 1989, and served without
disciplinary incident until 2 April 1990, when you received
nonjudicial punishment (NJP) for insubordinate conduct,
disobeying a lawful order by drinking underage, and public
drunkenness. In February 1991, you received a medical evaluation
that required you to receive alcohol rehabilitation, level II
(out-patient) treatment. Shortly thereafter, you received the
following NUP’s: on 5 October 1991, for uttering nine false
checks, and for an. unauthorized absence (UA) for five days; and
on 30 March 1992, for UA, and disorderly conduct due to
drunkenness. On 5 May 1992, you received another medical
evaluation and were deemed alcohol dependent. You were
recommended for separation due to your pattern of misconduct.
You waived all of your procedural rights, to include your right
to an administrative discharge board (ADB). The separation
authority approved the recommendation for an other than honorable
(OTH) discharge. Therefore, on 28 May 1992, you were separated
with an OTH discharge 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 the passage of time. Nevertheless, the Board
concluded these factors were not sufficient to warrant changing
the characterization of your discharge due to your misconduct.
Furthermore, the Board found you waived your right to an ADB,
your best opportunity for retention or a better characterization
of service. Finally, there is no provision of law or in
regulations 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,

LoTR

W. DEAN P R
Executive rector
