DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY

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

Docket No: 7926-09
21 October 2009

 

 

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 21 October 2009. 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.

The Board found that you served on active duty in the Navy from
11 July 1996 to 26 June 1998, when you were discharged by reason
of homosexual admission, with a general discharge. You were
assigned a reentry code of RE-4, as requixed by governing

directives.

As your present reentry code is correct, and you have not

demonstrated that it would be in the interest of justice for the
Board to assign a more favorable code as an exception to policy,
there is no basis for granting your request. Accordingly, your
application has been denied. The names and votes of the members

of the panel will be furnished upon request.

The Board did not consider whether your characterization of
service or reason for separation should be changed, since you
have not exhausted your administrative remedies by applying to
the Naval Discharge Review Board (NDRB). You may do so by
submitting the attached DD Form 293 to the NDRB.

It ig 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,

W. DEAN PFEIFER

Executive Dire
