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

 

JRE
Docket No. 02076-10
17 December 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
December 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 .

On 22 June 2006, the Physical Evaluation Board (PEB) made a
preliminary finding that you were unfit for duty by reason of physical
disability due to post-phlebitic syndrome that was ratable at 10%
under the Department of Veterans Afffairs (VA) rating schedule. The
PFB made that finding notwithstanding your belief that you were fit
for further service. As you did not respond to the notification of
the preliminary findings of the PEB, your acceptance was presumed,
and you were discharged with entitlement to disability severance pay
in accordance with the approved finding of the PEB.

 

 

In the absence of evidence which demonstrates that you were entitled
to a rating of 30% or higher from the Department of the Navy at the
time of your discharge by reason of physical disability, the Board
was unable to recommend any corrective action in your case.
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
gepplying 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,

Munn

W. DEAN P E
Executive Director

In the absence of evidence which demonstrates that you were entitled to a higher disability rating from the PEB for your knee condition or that you suffered from any other conditions that should have been rated by the PEB, the Board was unable to...
