DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
2 NAVY ANNEX
WASHINGTON DC 20370-5100
TAL
Docket No: 2616-11
S December 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 7 December 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 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
20 March 2006 at age 18. On 8 June 2007, you were the subject of
a mental health evaluation that diagnosed you with attention
deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), as an alcohol abuser, and
with a personality disorder. It was stated in part that, you
inflicted several lacerations on your left arm with a butcher
knife and attempted to break your hand with a heavy object to
cope with intense anger and frustration. You attempted to commit
suicide by attaching bricks to your feet and jumping off the
flight deck. The evaluation further stated that your condition
was sufficiently severe to impair significantly your ability to
function effectively in the military environment. On 26 June
2007, your commanding officer directed that you be discharged by
reason of your diagnosed personality disorder. You received an
honorable discharge on 3 July 2007. At that time you were
assigned an RE-4 reenlistment code.
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
reenlistment code given the diagnosis of a personality disorder.
An RE-4 reenlistment code is routinely assigned under such
circumstances. 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,
panes
