DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
CRS
Docket No: 6047-10
25 February 2011
This is in reference to your application for correction of your
naval record pursuant to the provisions ef 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 24 February 2011. 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.
The Board found that you served in the Navy from 16 January to 10
October 2008, when you were discharged by reason of alcohol abuse
rehabilitation failure, with a general discharge. You were
assigned a reentry code of RE-4, as required by governing
directives.
As your present reentry code is correct, and you have not
demonstrated that it would be in the interest of justice for the
Board to assign a more favorable code as an exception to policy,
there is no basis for granting your request. Accordingly, your
application has been denied. The names and votes of the members
of the panel will be furnished upon request.
The Board did not consider whether your characterization of
service or reason for separation should be changed, since you did
not request such consideration and you have not exhausted your
administrative remedies by applying to the Naval Discharge Review
Board (NDRB). You may do so by submitting the attached DD Form
293 to the NDRB.
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.
¢onsequently, when applying for a correction of an official naval
‘wecord, the burden is,gn the applicant to demonstrate the
‘existence of probable/ material error or injustice.

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records, sitting in executive session, considered your application on 29 February 2012.

Since your discharge is less than 15 years old, you may apply the Naval Discharge Review Board (NDRB) for a possible upgrade.
