Docket No: 5441-11

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. 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 that the evidence submitted was
insufficient to establish the existence of probable material
error or injustice.

You enlisted in the Navy and entered active duty on 31 December
1985. You received nonjudicial punishment on two occasions for
unauthorized absence, insubordinate conduct, and willfully
disobeying a commissioned officer. You were then notified that
your commanding officer was recommending you for administrative
separation with an other than honorable (OTH) characterization
of service discharge due to misconduct. You waived your
procedural right to an administrative discharge board (ADB). On
2 October 1987, you received an OTH characterization of service
discharge due to misconduct, and were assigned an RE-4 (not
recommended for retention) reenlistment code.

In its review of your application, the Board carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth, and
current desire to upgrade your discharge. However, the Board
concluded that your discharge should not be changed due to your
acts of misconduct. The Board particularly noted that you
waived the right to an ADB, your best opportunity for retention
or a better characterization of service. Finally, you are
advised that no discharge is upgraded automatically due solely
to the passage of time or post service good conduct. In view of
the above, 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,

W. ‘DEAN p

Executive Dige
