Docket No: 10129-09
6 July 2010

 

Dear pei

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 30 June 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 ali 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
LaWuStece .

You reenlisted in the Navy 20 June 1980 after four years of prior
honorable service. On 2 March 1984, you received nonjudicial
punishment (NIP). for wrongful use of cocaine. On 22 September
1986, you again received NUP for wrongful use of cocaine. After
your first NUP, you were counseled regarding your misconduct and
warned that further offenses could result in administrative
separation. You were notified of pending administrative
discharge processing with an other than honorable (OTH) discharge
due to misconduct (drug abuse). You waived ail of your
procedural rights, including your right to an administrative
discharge board (ADB). On 18 November 1986, you received the OTH
discharge for misconduct (drug abuse).

The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and
overall record of service. Nevertheless, the Board concluded
these factors were not sufficient to warrant recharacterization
of your discharge given the seriousness of your misconduct.

Finally,- the Board_found-that. you. waived the right to.an ADB,.. 0...

your best opportunity for retention or a better characterization
of service. 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,

\PasS
