DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
TAL
Docket No: 8499-10
28 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 27 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 cons
1, the Board found the evidence submitted was insufficient
You enlisted in the Navy and began a period of active duty on
14 March 1988 at age 22. You received nonjudicial punishment
(NJP) on four occasions for operating a vehicle while
intoxicated, eight instances of failure to go to your appointe
place of duty and unlawful entry into the female berthing. After
your first NUP, you were counseled regarding your misconduct and
warned that further offenses could result in administrative
separation. On 15 May 1989 you were admitted to Alcohol
Rehabilitation Department (ARD), Naval Hospital, Beaufort, SC.
You were diagnosed as alcohol dependent, with hallucinogen abuse
and an immature personality disorder. You were notified of
pending administrative discharge processing with an other than
honorable (OTH) discharge due to misconduct. You waived all of
your procedural rights, including your right to an administrative
discharge board (ADB). On 25 May 1990 you received the OTH
discharge for misconduct due to commission of a serious offense.
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 NJPs. The Board noted that you waived your
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,
Lo Bun)
