DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490
SJN
Docket No: 05745-12
27 March 2013
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 26 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 Marine Corps and began a period of active
duty on 18 January 1979. The Board found that you received three
nonjudicial punishments (NJP’s) for three instances of
disobedience, disrespect, and destruction of government property.
Subsequently, you were notified of pending administrative
separation action by reason of misconduct due to frequent
involvement of a discreditable nature with military authorities.
After being advised of your procedural rights, you waived the
right to an administrative discharge board (ADB). The separation
authority directed discharge under other than honorable
conditions by reason of misconduct. You were so discharged on
16 July 1982.
The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth, record of
service and desire to change your characterization of service.
Nevertheless, the Board found that these factors were not
sufficient to warrant any change in your discharge given your
three NUJP’s. The Board also noted that you waived 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,
RSD, ~oh_
