DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

BUG
Docket No: 8446-10
20 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 19 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 entered active duty in the Navy on 1 April 1999. Your
record is incomplete, but it appears that you were diagnosed as
being alcohol dependent at recruit training and were

recommended for administrative separation. On 21 April 1999,
you received an uncharacterized entry level separation due to
erroneous entry (alcohol abuse), 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,
remorse, 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 alcohol dependence diagnosis.
You are advised no reentry code is changed due merely to the
passage of time or post service good conduct. 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 setficial
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,

ly

W. DEAN PFEI
Executive Di
