DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
REC
Docket No: 13330-09
16 September 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 15 September 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 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
6 June 2001, at age 17. On 16 April 2004, you received
nonjudicial punishment (NJP) for being absent without leave and
failure to obey a lawful order. On 6 October 2004, you received
NIP for being absent without leave for the second time, failure
to obey a lawful order, and missing the movement of your ship.
On 20 January 2005, you received NUP for being in an unauthorized
absence (UA). You were counseled and informed that you would
receive a reenlistment code of RE-4 upon your separation as you
were not recommended for retention. On 5 June 2005, you were
honorably discharged from active duty while serving in pay grade
E-2 and not recommended for reenlistment due to substandard
behavior. At that time, you were assigned an RE-4 reenlistment
code.
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 a change in the
reenlistment code, given your record of three NJP’s. In this
regard, an RE-4 reenlistment code is required when an individual
is discharged at the expiration of his term of active obligated
service and is not recommended for retention. 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,
| Wea
