DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

 

BIG
Docket No: 7896-10
6 April 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 5 April 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.

You enlisted in the Navy Reserve on 29 August 2002. On 13
August 2004, you were notified that your command was initiating
administrative separation processing due to your failure to
maintain satisfactory attendance by missing 12 drills. You
were not recommended for retention. On 17 September 2004, you
received a general discharge due to unsatisfactory
participation in the Ready Reserve, and were assigned an RE-4
(not recommended for reenlistment) reentry code.
&

 

In its review of your application, the Board carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth, belief
that you should have received a hardship discharge, and current
desire to serve in the armed forces. However, the Board
concluded that you were correctly assigned the RE-4 reentry
code due to your failure to participate in the Ready Reserve,
and non-recommendation for retention. The Board noted that you,
provided no evidence to support your allegation that you should
have received a hardship discharge. In view of the above, 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,
