DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490

BIG
Docket No: 6669-13
16 July 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 15 July 2014. Your allegations of error and
injustice were reviewed in accordance with administrative
reguiations 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.

You enlisted in the Navy and entered a period of active duty on
21 July 1958. You received nonjudicial punishment on two
occasions and were convicted by civil authorities. Your
offenses included a 10 day period of unauthorized absence,
failure to obey a lawful order, and automobile theft. Your

_ commanding officer then recommended you for administrative
separation with an other than honorable (OTH) characterization

of service discharge due to misconduct (civil conviction). You
waived your procedural right to an administrative discharge
board (ADB). On 24 November 1961, you received an OTH
characterization of service discharge due to misconduct.

In its review of your application, the Board carefully weighed
all potentially mitigating factors, such as your youth, remorse,
post service good conduct, and current desire to upgrade your
discharge. However, the Board concluded that your discharge
should not be changed due to your misconduct. The Board noted
that you waived your right to an ADB, your best opportunity for
retention or a better characterization of service. Finally, you
are advised that no discharge is upgraded automatically due
solely to the passage of time or post service good conduct. In
view of the above, your application has been denied. The names
and votes of. the members of the panel will be furnished upon
request... ete

    

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
