DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
CRS
Docket No: 6849-10
16 September 2010
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 14 July 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, 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 on active duty in the Navy from
20 July to 11 August 2006, when you received an entry level
separation by reason of erroneous entry due to pre-service use of
marijuana, and were assigned a reentry code of RE-4.
On 23 May 2008 the Naval Discharge Review Board changed the
reason for discharge to secretarial authority.
Applicable regulations authorize the assignment of an RE-4
reentry code to individuals who are separated due to secretarial
authority based on pre-service abuse of illegal drugs. The Board
concluded that there is no error or injustice in your reentry
code, and that you have not demonstrated that it would be in the
interest of justice for the Board to assign a more favorable
code. 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,
Ww. “DEAN we
