BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX JRE
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100 pocket No. 01674-11
22 February 2011
NA nmer wie:
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 17
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.
You enlisted in the Navy on 17 November 1988 at thirty-four years
of age. You underwent psychiatric evaluation on 2 November 1990 and
were given diagnoses of severe occupational problem and “other
specified family circumstances”. The psychiatrist who conducted the
evaluation found no evidence which indicated that you suffered from
a thought disorder or major affective disorder. The report of
evaluation indicates that you were experiencing personal and
occupational turmoil at that time due to a number personal problems
and your dissatisfaction with your job in the Navy. On 6 November
1990, you were given a primary diagnosis of personality disorder,
not otherwise specified, with narcissistic, immature and histrionic
features in crisis, and recommended for discharge. You were examined
and found physically qualified for separation on 8 December 1990.
You were discharged for the convenience of the government on 10
December 1990 by reason of the aforementioned personality disorder.
The Board was not persuaded that you were suffering from a depressive
disorder with psychotic features rather than a personality disorder
at the time of your discharge, or that you were unfit for duty by
reason of physical disability that was incurred in or aggravated by
your naval service. In addition, the Board did not accept your
unsubstantiated contention to the effect that you were given a
diagnosis of a personality disorder in order to avoid granting you
disability benefits. 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,

ND04-00491 Applicant’s Request The application for discharge review was received on 20040204. After repeated requests to my superiors, and visits with the Chaplain, I was referred for psychological evaluation. The Applicant’s conduct, which forms the primary basis for determining the character of his service, reflects his willful failure to meet the requirements of his contract with the U.S. Navy and falls far short of that required for an upgrade of his characterization of service.
