DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

 

WJH
Doc. No. 1495-10
3 March 2010

 

This is in reference to your application for correction of your
naval record pursuant to the provisions of 10 USC 1552.

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval
Records, sitting in executive session, considered your
application on 1 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, and applicable statutes, regulations and
policies.

After careful and conscientious consideration of the entire
record, a majority of the Board found that the evidence
submitted was insufficient to establish the existence of
probable material error or injustice. The Board carefully
considered the evidence of the guarantees contained in your
enlistment contract. However, the Board noted that those
guarantees were made over eight years ago. In the intervening
years, you completed IT school and, in September 2005,
voluntarily reenlisted for six years in the IT rate for a
substantial bonus. The Board carefully considered your claims
that you asked your supervisors to assign you to Legalman
training. However, the Board found that those claims were not
sufficient to overcome the Board’s determination that you have
been serving in the IT rating voluntarily for some time now. In
the Board’s view, your decision to voluntarily reenlist in the
IT rating for a bonus was an intervening event that relieved the
Navy of any obligation it may have had to afford you Legalman or
Master-at-Arms training. Accordingly, your application has been
denied. The names and votes of the members of the panel will be
furnished upon request.
Doc. No. 1495-10

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 also 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,

Sons P ER
Executivel Difactor
