DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490

 

SIN
Docket No: 04469-11
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 Navy and began a period of active duty on
25 July 1988. The Board found that on 18 December 1989, you
received nonjudicial punishment (NJP) for three days of
unauthorized absence (UA). You were counseled and warned that
further misconduct could result in administrative discharge
action. On 22 June and 21 September 1990, you received NUP for
four instances of UA totaling 25 days, missing movement, and
making a false official statement. Subsequently, administrative
discharge action was initiated by reason of misconduct due to
commission of a serious offense. 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 due to commission of a serious offense.
You were so discharged on 12 October 1990.

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 three NUP’s, one of which was for very
serious offenses. Finally, the Board noted that you waived the
right to an ADB, your best chance 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,

\S

W. DEAN P
Executive Di
