BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
BAN
Docket No: 11232-10
28 July 2011
This ig 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 28 July 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 Navy on 13 February 1975, and
served without incident until 16 September 1976, when you were
convicted at a summary court-martial of the sale and possession
on an illegally controlled substance (cocaine). Shortly
thereafter, on 5 November 1976, you received nonjudicial
punishment (NUP) for unauthorized absence. In addition, on 7
January 1977, you received NUP for disrespect to a chief petty
officer and petty officer. Therefore, you were recommended for
separation with an other than honorable (OTH) discharge due to
misconduct. You waived your rights to consult with counsel and
request an administrative discharge board (ADB). The separation
authority approved the recommendation and on 13 January 1977, you
were separated with an OTH discharge.
The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth, and drug and alcohol abuse. Nevertheless, the Board
concluded these factors were not sufficient to warrant a change
to your characterization of discharge due to your misconduct.
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,
D Ween Fy,’
