&
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 12
August 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
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 that the evidence submitted was insufficient to
establish the existence of probable material error or injustice.
You served on active duty in the Navy from 13 March 2002 to 4 January
20007, when you were discharged for the convenience of the government
by reason of a personality disorder.
The Board carefully considered the evidence you submitted in support
of your application, but found it insufficient to demonstrate that
you did not suffer from personality and substance abuse disorders.
In this regard, 1t noted that your therapist did not address many
significant aspects of your record such your pre-service use of LSD
Ecstasy, a oe amphetanines, to which youriight have been addi Fed,
engaging in self-mutilating behavior; playing Russian roulette;
making suicidal threats; and demonstrating affective instability,
a poor self image, and anger problems.
There is no indication in the available records that you were unfit
for duty by reason of physical disability that was incurred in or
aggravated by your naval service and would have warranted separation
or retirement by reason of physical disability, or that you should
have been discharged by reason of hardship vice a personality
disorder.
In view of the foregoing, 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,
Executive Di eC
