BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

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

 

SIN
Docket No: 00543-12
27 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 24 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.

The Board found that on 10 June 2011, you received nonjudicial
punishment (NIP) for failure to obey an order or regulation
(wrongfully drinking alcohol on duty), and being found drunk on
duty. You received a reduction in paygrade and extra duty.

Your record shows you did not submit an appeal of your NUP.
Approximately six months later, through military counsel you
state, in part, that your commanding officer’s (CO's) finding of
guilt constitutes a legal error resulting in an injustice.
because the evidence does not support a finding that you were on
duty or that you were drunk.

The Board concluded that your CO’s decision to impose NJP was
both administratively and procedurally correct and is supported
by a duty log book entry dated 21 May 2011, that states, in
part, that you and two other Sailors were drinking on watch,
that statements were taken, all agreed to drinking on duty, and
that three other Sailors were called’ in to assume the watch.
Finally, the Board concluded that the removal of the NUP would
be unfair to your peers, against whom you will compete for
promotions and assignments. 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,

W. DEAN PPE
Executive Dikec
