BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DG 20370-5100
TAL
Docket No: 12456-10
19 Avgust 2011
This ig 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 17 August 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.
Rfiter 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
26 June 2008 at age 22. Based on the information currently
contained in your record it appears that you were subsequently
involuntarily processed for entry level separation by reason of
erroneous entry. In connection with this processing, you would
have acknowledged the separation action and the discharge
authority would have approved a recommendation for separation.
The record clearly shows that on 17 July 2008, you were
discharged with an entry level separation by reason of erroneous
entry. At that time you were assigned an RE-4 reentry code,
which means that you were neither recommended nor eligible for
reenlistment.
The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth, and
overall record of service. Nevertheless, the Board found that
these factors were not sufficient to warrant a change in your
reentry code. Regulations authorize the assignment of an RE-4
reentry code when an individual is discharged by reason of
erroneous entry. Furthermore, enlistment disqualifications
discovered after enlistment result in discharge by reason of
erroneous entry if the separation authority finds that the
individual would have never been authorized to enlist if the
disqualifying factor had been discovered before enlistment.
Aecordingly, 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,
\ Deane
