WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100 CRS
Docket No: 12316-09
28 December 2009
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 2 December 2009. 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 that the evidence submitted was
insufficient to establish the existence of probable material
error or injustice.
The Board found that you enlisted in the Navy on 26 June 2007.
On 13 July 2007, after disclosing recurrent thoughts of death and
‘guicide you were given a diagnosis of a major depressive
disorder. On 2 August 2007 you received an entry level
separation by reason of erroneous entry and were assigned a
reentry code of RE-4.
The Board noted that a reentry code of RE-4 is authorized by
regulatory guidance and is often assigned to service members
separated by reason of erroneous entry, especially in cases such
ag yours where the enlistment is deemed errorieous because of
previously undisclosed, disqualifying physical or psychological
conditions which existed prior to enlistment.
The Board did not accept your uncorroborated contention to the
effect that there was no evaluation for mental health. The Board
concluded that it would not be in the interest of justice to
assign you a more favorable reentry code. Accordingly, your a
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,
la
W. DEAN P
