BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
701 S, COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1004
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490
TAL
Docket No: 4460-13
22 April 2014
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 19 April 2014. 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 and began a period of active duty on
13 July 2011 at age 18. You were the subject of a medical
evaluation and found to have a condition that existed prior to
enlistment, which'was not correctable to meet Navy physical
standards. The diagnosed condition affected your potential for
performance of expected duties and responsibilities. On 21
October 2011, you were notified of the recommendation that you
be discharged by reason of entry level separation due to failed
medical/physical procurement standards. On 15 November 2011 you
were so discharged and assigned an RE-4 reenlistment code.
The Board, in its review of your application, carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth, and
overall record of service. Nevertheless, the Board found that
these factors were not sufficient to warrant a change in your
reenlistment code. The Board concluded that since you were
discharged by reason of failed medical/physical procurement
standards, the RE-4 reenlistment code is justified. Recruiting
personnel are responsible for determining whether you meet the
standards for reenlistment, and whether or not a request with
supporting documentation for waiver of your reenlistment code is
feasible. 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. ZSALMAN
Acting Executive Director
