BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
701 S. COURTHOUSE RD SUITE 1001
ARLINGTON VA 22204-2490
BAN
Docket No: 05142-12
25 March 2013
This is in reference to your application for correction of your
naval record pursuant to the provisions of title 10, 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 20 March 2013. 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 on 30 August 1995, and served without
disciplinary incident. You were diagnosed by a medical health
professional as having a personality disorder. Therefore, on 4
October 1995, you were separated with an entry level separation
(uncharacterized) and an RE-4 reentry code due to your diagnosed
personality disorder.
The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth and current desire to serve in the military.
Nevertheless, the Board concluded these factors were not
sufficient to warrant changing your reason for separation because
of your personality disorder. You are advised that all service
members receive uncharacterized entry level separations if they
serve less than 180 days of active duty. 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,
ROBERT D. 4SALMAN
Acting Executive Director
