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

 

TAL
Docket No: 12446-10
12 August 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 10 August 2013. 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 reenlisted in the Navy on 25 January 1985 after more than
three years of prior honorable service. On 28 May 1986, you were
convicted by special court-martial (SPCM) of unauthorized absence
(UA) from your unit for a period of 370 days and wrongful use of
Marijuana. The sentence imposed was confinement for two months,
a forfeiture of pay, reduction in paygrade and a bad conduct
discharge (BCD). On 25 November 1991, you received the BCD after
appellate review was complete.

The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and prior
honorable service. Nevertheless, the Board found that these
factors were not sufficient to warrant recharacterization of your
discharge given the seriousness of your misconduct that resulted
-in a SPCM and a period of UA totaling over one year.

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,

W. DEAN PFETRF
