BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX

TAL
Decket No: 11971-10
12 August 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'10 August 2011. The names and votes of the
members of the panel will be furnished upon request. 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 enlisted in the Navy and began a period of active duty on
28 August 1989 at age 21. You received nonjudicial punishment
(NTP) on four occasions for two instances of failure to obey a
lawful order or regulation, drunk and disorderly conduct,
disrespect toward a superior commissioned officer and —
insubordinate conduct toward a noncommissioned officer. You were
counseled on several occasions regarding your misconduct and
warned that further offenses could result in administrative
separation. You were notified of pending administrative
discharge processing with a general discharge due to misconduct
(pattern of misconduct). After consulting with legal counsel,
you elected to present your case to an administrative discharge
board (ADB). On 15 June 1993, the ADB found that you committed
misconduct and recommended that you be separated with a general
discharge. The separation authority agreed with the
recommendation of the ADB. On 23 August 1993, you received the
general discharge for misconduct (pattern of misconduct).
The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth and overall record of service. Nevertheless, the
Board concluded these factors were not sufficient to warrant
recharacterization of your discharge given the seriousness of
your misconduct that resulted in four NJPs. The Board also
believed that you were fortunate to receive a general discharge
since a discharge under other than honorable conditions is often
directed when a Sailor is separated for 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,
