Docket No: 00299-11
27 October 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 25 October 2011. Your allegations of error and
injustice were reviewed in accordance with administrative
reguiations and procedures applicable to the proceedings of this
Board. Documentary material considered by the Board consisted of
your application, together with ail 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
25 February 2008. The Board found that on 7 March 2008, a
recruit mental health evaluation was conducted, and you were
diagnosed with a depressive disorder. The report stated, in
part, that you were depressed before joining the Navy, including
one pill overdose and were on antidepressants. While in boot
camp, you were depressed again, had erying spells, feelings of
hopelessness, trouble sleeping, bad appetite, and were irritable.
You were counseled regarding your condition, and advised to seek
treatment after separation. Subsequently, you were processed for
separation by reason of erroneous enlistment due to the diagnosed
depressive disorder. On 14 March 2008, after you were advised of
your rights, you elected to receive copies of documents to be
forwarded to the separation authority, but waived all your other
procedural rights. On 28 March 2008, you were discharged with an
entry level separation by reason of erroneous entry, and assigned
and RE-4 reentry code.
The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and short
period of service. Nevertheless, the Board found that these
factors were not sufficient to warrant a change in your reentry
code given the diagnosed depressive disorder. 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 entitied 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,
\NouS
