Docket No: 301-10
13 October 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 6 October 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 on 22 February 2008 at age 19, began a
period of active duty on 18 March 2008, and served without
disciplinary incident.
On 12 September 2008, after being referred for a psychiatric
evaluation due to suicidal ideation which required police
intervention, you were diagnosed with an adjustment disorder,
borderline personality disorder, routine military stressors,
occupational problems, and problems related to the social
environment. As a result, you were recommended for an
expeditious administrative separation. Subsequently, you were
processed for an administrative separation by reason of
convenience of the government due to your diagnosed personality
disorder. The discharge authority directed an uncharacterized
entry level separation by reason of convenience of the government
due to a diagnosed personality disorder. On 18 March 2008, while
serving in paygrade E-1, you were so discharged and assigned an
RE-4 reenlistment code.
The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth, post service conduct, and desire to change your
reenlistment code. It also considered your letter of explanation
regarding the time served and diagnosed personality disorder.
Nevertheless, the Board concluded these factors were not
sufficient to warrant a change of your reenlistment code because
,of the seriousness of your diagnosed personality disorder.
ae the Board* found that you did not provide any psychiatric
evidence te. negate the diagnosis of a personality disorder.
cordinglVt YH application has been denied.
STt is fvegrestedpthat 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.
