BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490
SIN
Docket No: 04950-11
1 March 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 28 February 2012. The names and votes of the
members of the panel will be furnished upon request. 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
22 August 1983. The Board found that you received three
nonjudicial punishments (NJP’s) for failure to go to your
appointed place of duty, dereliction of duty, unauthorized
absence (UA), two instances of disobedience, a breach of the
peace, and four instances of assault. Additionally, you were
counseled and warned after your first NUP, that further
misconduct could result in administrative discharge action. On
4 May 1987, you were convicted by special court-martial (SPCM)
of three specifications of assault and communicating a threat.
You were sentenced to confinement at hard labor, a forfeiture of
pay, a reduction in paygrade, and a bad conduct discharge (BCD).
You received the BCD on 4 March 1988 after appellate review was
completed.
The Board, in its review of your record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth, desire to upgrade your discharge, and character
letter. Nevertheless, based on the information currently
contained in your record, the Board concluded these factors were
not sufficient to warrant recharacterization of your discharge
given your three NUP’s, conviction by SPCM of very serious
offenses, and the fact that you were warned of the consequences
of further misconduct. Accordingly, your application has been
denied.
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,
Donde.
