BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
701 S, COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490
SIN
Docket No: 03835-11
15 February 2012
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 14 February 2012. 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 Marine Corps and began a period of active
duty on 8 December 1981. The Board found that on 8 September
and 18 November 1983, you received nonjudicial punishment (NJP)
for unauthorized absence, 47 instances of failing to go to your
appointed place of duty, and larceny. Additionally, you were
counseled and warned after your first NUP that further
misconduct could result in administrative discharge action.
Subsequently, on 29 November 1983, administrative discharge
action was initiated by reason of misconduct due to a pattern of
misconduct. You waived your rights to consult counsel, submit a
statement or have your case heard by an administrative discharge
board (ADB). Your case was forwarded recommending that you be
discharged under other than honorable (OTH) conditions by reason
of misconduct. The discharge authority concurred and directed
an OTH discharge by reason of misconduct. You were so
discharged on 17 January 1984.
The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth and
record of service. Nevertheless, the Board concluded these
factors were not sufficient to warrant recharacterization of
your discharge given your two NJP’s, and the fact that you were
counseled and warned of the consequences of further misconduct.
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,
LD Wee fedl
