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

 

TAL
Docket No: 8553-10
5 May 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 consideration of the entire
record, the Board found the evidence submitted was insufficient
to establish the existence of probable material error or
LHIUBELeS:

You reenlisted in the Navy Reserve on 27 August 1991 after more
than three years of honorable service. On 22 March 1992, during
a random urinalysis you tested positive for marijuana use. You
were notified of pending administrative discharge processing with
an other than honorable (OTH) discharge due to misconduct (drug
use) and unsatisfactory participation in the Ready Reserve due to
30 unexcused drills. You waived all of your procedural rights,
including your right to an administrative discharge board (ADB).
On 23 July 1993, the separation authority directed an OTH
discharge by reason of misconduct (drug use). On 23 July 1993
you were so discharged.

The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and prior
honorable service. Nevertheless, the Board concluded these
factors were not sufficient to warrant recharacterization of your
discharge given the seriousness of your misconduct. Finally, the
Board found 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,
