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

 

SIN
Docket No: 09054-09
10 June 2010

 

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 i552.

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval
Records, sitting in executive session, considered your
application on 8 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.

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.

The Board found you entered the Navy and began a period of active
duty on 7 November 1967. The Board found that you were the
subject of two nonjudicial punishments (NUP’s) for altering and
identification card and failure to obey a lawful order, and
convicted by civil authorities of violation of a health and
safety code. You were also convicted by a general court-martial
(GCM) of larceny:of 100 morphine syrettes and spray paint,
dereliction of duty, and attempting to steal and sell morphine.
As a result, you received a bad conduct discharge on 27 January
1971 after appellate review was completed.

The Board, in its review of your record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth and desire to upgrade your discharge. Nevertheless,
the Board concluded these factors were not sufficient to warrant
recharacterization of your discharge given your two NUP’s, civil
conviction, and GCM conviction for very serious misconduct.
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,
