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

 

TAL
Docket No: 6290-10
25 March 2011

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 March 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 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

23 November 1984 at age 21. You received nonjudicial punishment
(NIP) on four occasions for three instances of unauthorized
absence (UA) for periods totaling 41 days, two instances of
missing ship's movement and wrongful use of marijuana. After
your third NUP, you were counseled regarding your misconduct and
warned that further offenses could result in administrative
separation. You were notified of pending administrative
separation action by reason of misconduct due to a pattern of
misconduct. You waived your rights to consult counsel, submit a
statement or have your case heard by an administrative discharge
board (ADB). Your commanding officer forwarded his
recommendation that you be discharged under other than honorable
(OTH) conditions by reason of misconduct. The separation
authority directed an OTH discharge by reason of misconduct due
to a pattern of misconduct. On 11 September 1987 you were sO
discharged.
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 found that
these factors were not sufficient to warrant recharacterization
of your discharge given the seriousness of your misconduct that
resulted in four NUJPs and periods of UA totaling over 41 days.
Finally, the Board noted that you waived the right to an ADB,
your best opportunity for retention or a better characterization
of service. 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,
