BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
‘WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

 

CRS
Docket No: 1396-10
23 March 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 17 March 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.

The Board found that you enlisted in the Navy on 15 December
2009. On 16 December 2009 you were given a diagnosis of migraine
headaches, which was considered disqualifying for enlistment and
not correctable to meet Navy Standards. On 11 January 2010 you
received an entry level separation by reason of your failure to
meet medical/physical procurement standards, and were assigned a
reentry code of RE-4.

The Board noted that applicable regulations require the
assignment of a RE-4 reentry code to Sailors who are separated
due to theix failure to meet medical/physical procurement
standards. Your contention that you no longer have migraine
headaches does not establish that you were discharged in error or
provide a basis for changing your RE code, which was properly
assigned to reflect your status at that time. Accordingly, your
application has been denied. The names and votes of the members
of the panel will be furnished upon request.

Tt 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 ail 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,

W. DI
