DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
BUG
Docket No: 1630-10
19 October 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 19 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 that the evidence submitted was
insufficient to establish the existence of probable material
error or injustice. You reenlisted in the Navy Reserve on 4
August 2001 after more than 13 years of honorable service.
Your unit was preparing to deploy in 2003, and you stated that
you had no one to care for your dependent daughter. When you
were asked if your parents could care for her during your
deployment, you stated that they lived in the West Indies and
you did not want your daughter subjected to a radical culture
change. Your command determined that your parents were
actually living in the United States. You were notified that
you were being administratively separated due to parenthood
with an honorable discharge and assigned an RE-4 (not
recommended for retention) reenlistment code. You were so
discharged in June 2003.
In its review of your application, the Board carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your honorable
service and current desire to reenlist in the armed forces.
However, the Board concluded that your reenlistment code should
not be changed due to your parenthood issues and deception with
your command. In view of the above, your application has been
denied. The names and votes of the members of the panel will
be furnished upon request.
EI re, a .
zt is regretted that the circumstances of your case are such
that favorable “adéMion 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,
