BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
701 S, COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490
TAL
Docket No: 4080-11
19 January 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 12 January 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 Navy and began a period of active duty on
1 November 1988 at age 19. You received nonjudicial punishment
(NUP) on three occasions for two instances of failure to go to
your appointed place of duty, two instances of failure to obey a
lawful order, destruction of government property, drunk and
disorderly conduct, and wrongful use of marijuana. After your
second NUP, you were counseled regarding your misconduct and
warned that further offenses could result in administrative
separation. On 16 June 1993, you were notified of pending
administrative separation processing with an other than honorable
(OTH) discharge due to misconduct (pattern of misconduct). You
waived all of your procedural rights, including your right to an
administrative discharge board (ADB). On 8 October 1993, you
received the OTH discharge for misconduct (pattern of
misconduct) .
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 recharacterization
of your discharge given the seriousness of your misconduct that
resulted in three NJPs and drug use. Finally, the Board noted
that you waived the right to an ADB, your best opportunity for
retention or a better characterization of service. 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,
io dda ,
