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

 

CRS
Docket No: 6254-10
6 July 2030

 

Dear Sane.

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 16 June 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 aii 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 enlisted in the Navy Reserve on 14
August 1992. On 30 October 1993 you received nonjudicial
punishment for wrongful use of marijuana, crystal
methamphetamine, and cocaine, and wrongful possession of
amphetamines aboard a naval vessel. On 19 November 1993 you were
discharged by reason of misconduct due to drug abuse with a
discharge under other than honorable conditions.

In its review of your application, the Board carefully considered
your contention that you were suffering from posttraumatic stress
disorder while on active duty, and that the acts of misconduct
which resulted in your discharge were symptoms of that condition.
The Board could not find any evidence in the available records or
your application which corroborates that contention.

Accordingly, and as you have not demonstrated that it would be in
the interest of justice for the Board to upgrade your discharge
as a matter of clemency, 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,
lp oak |

W. DEAN ‘P
Executive
