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

 

JRE
Docket No. 08643-10
19 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, in which you requested correction of your record
to show that you were retired by reason of physical disability due
to the effects of posttraumatic stress disorder.

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records,
Sitting in executive session, considered your application on 19 May
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. In
this regard, the Board concluded that your naval record does not
Contain any evidence which suggests that you were suffering from
posttraumatic stress disorder when you were released from active duty
on 25 June 2005. The fact that the Department of Veterans Affairs
(VA) awarded you a disability rating for posttraumatic stress
disorder effective from 28 July 2009 was not considered probative
of the existence of error or injustice in your naval record because
the VA made that award without regard to the issue of your fitness
for duty four years earlier when you were released from active duty.
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,

1 C on De fe
ROBERT D~ZSALMAN

Acting Executive Director
