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

 

SON
Docket No: 04374-09
8 April 2010

 

This is in reference to your application for correction of your
naval record pursuant to the provisions of titie 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 30 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, regquiations,
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 and began a period of active duty on

13 March 1956 at age 19. You remained on active duty until

14 March 1958, when you were released under honorable conditions
at the expiration of your enlistment and transferred to the Navy
Reserve. At that time, although you were recommended for
retention, you stated that you did not want to reenlist. On

19 February 1962, you were discharged at the completion of your
military obligation based on your conduct marks with a general
characterization of service.

Characterization of service is based in part on conduct and
proficiency averages computed from marks assigned on a periodic
basis. Your conduct average was 2.9. At the time of your
service, a conduct average of 3.0 was required for a fully
honorable characterization of service.

The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and
overall record of service. Nevertheless, the Board concluded
these factors were not sufficient to warrant upgrading your
discharge given your failure to attain the required average in
conduct. 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
record, the burden is on the applicant to demonstrate the
existence of probable material error or injustice.

Sincerely,

  
  

W. DEAN P
Executive
