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

TIR
Docket No: 4771-09
26 April 2010

 

  

, gs na th , ;
This is in reference to your application for correction of your

naval record pursuant to the provisions of Title 10, 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 20 April 2010. The names and votes of the
members of the panel will be furnished upon request. 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 the evidence submitted was insufficient

to establish the existence of probable materiai error or
injustice.

You enlisted in the Navy on 22 February 1944 at age 20. You
served for a year and six months without disciplinary incident,
however, on 2 August 1945, you received captain’s mast (CM) for
being insolent to a superior officer. The punishment imposed was
reduction in paygrade to seaman first class (Slc). The record
does not contain documentation regarding an appeal to this CM.

On 23 April 1946, at the expiration of your enlistment, you were
honorably discharged while serving in paygrade Sic.

The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as the
passage of time, your desire to be reinstated to paygrade S2c,
and the supporting documentation provided with your application.
Nevertheless, the Board concluded these factors were not

' sufficient to warrant a change in your record because of the
seriousness of your misconduct which resulted in CM. Further,
the Board concluded that your misconduct was sufficient to
support the reduction to Sle and should not be changed based
solely on the passage of time or assertions of regret.
Accordingly, your application has been denied.

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,

Executive Di
