DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100

BUG
Docket No: 9246-10
4 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 3 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.

You entered active duty in the Marine Corps on 4 June 1952.

You were convicted by three summary courts-martial of four
specifications of unauthorized absence (UA) totaling 33 days,
and failure to obey a lawful order (four specifications). On
11 August 1954, you were convicted by a special court-martial
of UA, failure to go to your appointed place of duty, breaking
restriction, and failure to obey a lawful order. Your sentence
included a bad conduct discharge (BCD). On 19 January 1955,
after appellate review, you received the BCD.
In its review of your application, the Board carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth, alcohol
abuse problems, the passage of time, and post service good

conduct. However, the Board concluded that your BCD should not

be changed due to your numerous acts of misconduct. You are
advised that no discharge is upgraded due solely 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 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,

\y.
