DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490
TAL
Docket No: 4365-11
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 8 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 Navy and began a period of active duty on
20 July 2006 at age 19. On 7 August 2006, you were the subject
of a mental health evaluation where you were diagnosed with a
separation anxiety disorder that existed prior to entry. It was
stated in part, that you were seriously depressed and missed you
family. You were experiencing sadness, hopelessness, anxiety,
social isolation, cried without good reason, had serious sleep
difficulties and concentration problems. You were notified of
the recommendation that you be discharged by reason of erroneous
entry. On 11 August 2006, your commanding officer directed an
uncharacterized entry level separation and you were so
discharged. At that time you were assigned an RE-4 reentry
code, which means that you were neither recommended nor eligible
for reenlistment.
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 concluded
these factors were not sufficient to warrant a change in the
reentry code, which was based on your erroneous entry and
failure to complete recruit training. Accordingly, your
application has been denied. The names and votes of the members
of the panel will be furnished upon request.
Fach branch of the armed forces establishes its own criteria for
enlistment within the provisions of federal law. The reentry
code assigned by the Navy is not binding upon the other
services, which are free to accept or reject an application on
the basis of their own standards. If another branch of service
decides to waive your reentry code and accept you for
enlistment, the Navy will not object.
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,
\QorDal:
W. DEAN PFEISF
