DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

 

BAN
Docket No: 08622-10
27 April 2011

 

This is in reference to your application for correction of your
naval record pursuant to the provisions of title 10, 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 13 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
injustice.

You entered active duty in the Marine Corps on 18 November 1992,

and served without disciplinary incident. However, on 2 June
1993, you received a mental health evaluation for suicidal
thoughts. You were diagnosed with an avoidant personality

disorder and recommended for separation. You waived all of your
procedural rights. The separation authority approved the
recommendation due to your diagnosed personality disorder.
Therefore, on 30 August 1993, you were separated with an
honorable discharge due to your diagnosed personality disorder
and assigned an RE-4 reentry code.

 

The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth and claim that your condition was improperly
diagnosed. Nevertheless, the Board concluded these factors were
not sufficient to warrant a change to your narrative reason for
separation and reentry code due to your diagnosis. Furthermore,
the Board found you waived your procedural rights, your best
Opportunity for retention or to dispute your personality disorder
diagnosis. 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,

W. Di
