BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

BUG
Docket No: 8125-09
28 April 2010
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 27 April 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 that the evidence submitted was
insufficient to establish the existence of probable material
error or injustice. The Board found that you entered active
duty in the Navy on 3 March 1978. You received nonjudicial
punishment on one occasion for a 30 day period of unauthorized
absence (UA). You entered another period of UA on 2 November
1978, which did not end until 7 June 1984, when you
surrendered. Before you could be administratively separated,
you entered another period of UA on 4 August 1984, which did
not end until 22 December 1987, when you were apprehended. You
were then administrative separated for your two periods of UA
totaling over eight years. You received an other than
honorable (OTH) discharge on 25 February 1988 for commission of
&@ serious offense, and were assigned an RE-4 reenlistment code.
In its review of your application, the Board carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and
desire to upgrade your discharge. However, the Board found
that your OTH discharge should not be changed due to your very
lengthy periods of UA, the second of which ended with your
apprehension. In view of the above, 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.
