Docket No: 5768-13
28 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 20 February 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 that the evidence submitted was
insufficient to establish the existence of probable material
error or injustice.
The Board found that you enlisted in the Navy on 6 July 1970.
You received nonjudicial punishment on four occasions for
offenses that included larceny, disrespect, wrongful possession
of marijuana, absence from your appointed place of duty, and
misbehavior of a sentinel. On 9 May 1972 a medical evaluation
board diagnosed you with chronic schizophrenia, moderate. On 15
May 1972 you received a general discharge by reason of physical
disability, existing prior to entry.
In its review of your application, the Board considered your
contention that you have deslexia and not schizophrenia, but
found it unsubstantiated and insufficient to warrant the
approval cof your request for corrective action. 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,
