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

 

CRS
Docket No: 11885-10
7 March 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 2 February 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.

The Board found that you enlisted in the Navy on 10 February
1988. On 12 December 1990 you were diagnosed as having an
adjustment disorder with mixed emotional features, and it was
found that you should be held responsible for your behavior. On
9 January 1991 you received nonjudicial punishment for wrongful
use of marijuana.

On 23 January 1991 your commanding officer recommended that you
be separated from the Navy with a discharge under other than
honorable conditions by reason of misconduct due to drug abuse.
After review by the discharge authority, the recommendation for
separation was approved and on 19 February 1991 you were
separated by reason of misconduct with a discharge under other
than honorable conditions.

In its review of your application the Board carefully weighed all
potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth, overall
record, as well as your unsubstantiated contention that your
anxiety and depression caused your misconduct. The Board
concluded that those factors in your case are insufficient to
warrant an upgrade of your discharge, given your drug use.
The names and

Accordingly, your application has been denied.
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. DEAN P
Executive Ditreetuo
