BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
REC
Docket No: 00567-10
12 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 5 October 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 on 29 July 1971, at the age of 17.
After a review of your record, it appears that you were separated
correctly. Your record is incomplete, but on your medical
history you disclosed that you received an injury to your hand at
age eight. On 1 September 1971, you had experienced difficulties
completing all required exercises while in basic training, and a
Medical Review Board determined that you were inducted into the
Navy erroneously and you were recommended for discharge. You
received an honorable discharge with a reenlistment code of RE-4
upon your separation for a condition not a disability. You were
so discharged on 3 September 1971.
The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth and desire to serve in the military. However, the
Board found that these factors were not sufficient to warrant any
change in your reason for separation or reenlistment code, given
your medical condition. 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
wecord, the puxgen is on the applicant to demonstrate the
ig ebonee of ‘probable material error or injustice.
= Sincerely,
