and communicating a threat on two occasions. On 6 April 1994

conditions by reason of misconduct due toa pattern of

misconduct .

In its review of your application the Board carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth, overall

record of service and your contention that you were falsely

accused. The Board concluded that those factors were
insufficient to warrant upgrade of your discharge, given the .
seriousness of your offenses. Regarding your contention, there
is no evidence in the record that you were falsely accused of-
any of your disciplinary actions. 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 |
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,
Tn DO,

ROBERT. D. ZSALMAN
Acting Executive Director
