DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
SJN
Docket No: 09688-09
11 May 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 1552.
A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval
Records, sitting in executive session, considered your
application on 7 May 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.
Following a thorough review of your naval record the Board found
that you received nonjudicial punishment (NJP) for sleeping on
post and were convicted by special court-martial (SPCM) of
unauthorized absence, missing movement, fighting, and drunk and
disorderly conduct. As a result, you received a bad conduct
discharge on 7 December 1982 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, post service accomplishments, and desire to upgrade
your discharge. Nevertheless, the Board concluded these factors
were not sufficient to warrant recharacterization of your
discharge given your NUP and conviction by SPCM for 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,
QD For
