DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
SUN
Docket No: 10226-09
23 July 2010
This is in reference to your application for correction of your
‘naval record pursuant to the provisions of title 10, 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 20 July 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.
You enlisted in the Navy and began a period of active duty on
21 November 1989. The Board found that you were the subject of a
psychiatric evaluation that diagnosed you with alcohol abuse and
a personality disorder. The report stated, in part, that you
manifested a longstanding disorder of character and behavior
which was of such severity as to render you incapable of serving
adequately in the Navy. Further, that you were determined to be
‘continued risk to yourself and others if retained. Subsequently,
you were discharged with an entry level separation by reason of
convenience of the government due to a personality disorder. At
that time, you were assigned a reenlistment code of RE-4.
The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and record
of service. Nevertheless, the Board found that these factors
were not sufficient to warrant a change in your reenlistment code
given the diagnosis of a personality disorder, the fact that you
were found unsuitable for further service, and were a risk to
harm yourself or others. An RE-4 reenlistment code is routinely
assigned under such circumstances. Accordingly, your application
has been denied. The names and votes of the members of the panel
_Wwill 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,
La Roan.
