1. Pursuant to the provisions of reference (a), Petitioner, a
member of the Marine Corps, filed enclosure (1) with this Board
requesting that his naval record be corrected by removing any and
all references to the nonjudicial punishment (NJP) imposed on 19
August 2011. Presumably, this request includes, but is not
limited to, any administrative remarks (page 11) entries and
adverse fitness reports (FITREP) referencing the circumstances
surrounding the NUP.
2. The Board, consisting of Messrs. Exnicios, Pfeiffer, and
Whalen, reviewed Petitioner's allegations of error and injustice
on 8 October 2013 and, pursuant to its regulations, determined
that the corrective action indicated below should be taken on the
available evidence of record. Documentary material considered by
the Board consisted of the enclosures, naval records, and
applicable statutes, regulations, and policies. In addition, the
Board considered the advisory opinion (AO) furnished by the
Headquarters Marine Corps (HOMC) Military Justice Branch, Judge
Advocate Division (JAM), dated 12 September 2013, a copy of which
is attached as enclosure (4).
3. The Board, having reviewed all the facts of record pertaining
to Petitioner's allegations of error and injustice finds as
follows:
a. Before applying to this Board, Petitioner exhausted all
administrative remedies available under existing law and
regulations within the Department of the Navy.
b. Enclosure (1) was filed in a timely manner.
c. Petitioner received NJP on 19 August 2011 for failure to
obey a lawful order and drunken or reckless operation of a
vehicle. The punishment imposed was a $3,382 forfeiture of pay,
which was suspended for six months. Petitioner also received an
adverse FITREP for the period from 4 May to 12 August 2011 asa
result of the NJP, which was subsequently removed from the record
by the HOMC Performance Evaluation Review Board.
dad. On 14 March 2013 Petitioner’s commanding officer set aside
the NUP, stating in part, that any and all other references to it
should be removed from the record and that all rights and
privileges affected by the punishment imposed thereto should be
restored.
e. An AO, enclosure (4), from JAM2 is in full concurrence
with the 14 March 2013 NJP set aside and states, in part, that it
and all references thereto should be removed from the record.
CONCLUSION:
Upon review and consideration of all the evidence of record, and
especially in light of the AO from JAM, the Board concludes that
Petitioner's request warrants favorable action. In this regard,
the Board concludes that since the commanding officer set aside
the NUP, all references in his record regarding it should be
removed or obliterated. With that being said, any and all
documents, to include, but not limited to, the unit punishment
book entry, and administrative remarks entry, should be expunged
from the record. :
In view of the foregoing, the Board finds the existence of an
injustice warranting the following corrective action.
RECOMMENDATION:
a. That Petitioner's naval record be corrected by totally
obliterating or removing the 19 August 2011 NJP and all other
references thereto.
b. That any and all materials or entries inconsistent with or
relating to the Board's recommendation be corrected, removed, or
completely expunged from Petitioner's record and that no such
entries or materials be added to the record in the future.
c. That any material directed to be removed from Petitioner's
naval record be returned to the Board, together with a copy of
this Report of Proceedings, for retention in a confidential file
maintained for such purpose, with no cross-reference being made a
part of Petitioner's naval record.
4. Pursuant to Section 6(c) of the revised Procedures of the
Board for Correction of Naval Records (32 Code of Federal
Regulations, Section 723.6(c), it is certified that a quorum was
present at the Board's review and deliberations, and that the
foregoing is a true and complete record of the Board's
proceedings in the above entitled matter.

Naval Records (32 Code of Federal Regulation, Section 723.6 (e))
and having assured compliance with its provisions, it is hereby
announced that the foregoing corrective action, taken under the
authority of reference (a), has been approved by the Board on
behalf of the Secretary of the Navy.
