Ref: (a) 10 U.S.C, 1552
Encl: (1) DD Form 149 with attachments
(2) Subject’s naval record
1. Pursuant to the provisions of reference (a), Petitioner, a
former enlisted member of the Marine Corps, filed enclosure (1)
with this Board requesting, in effect, that his RE-4B reentry
code, issued on 30 August 2003, be changed and that he be
promoted to corporal.
2. The Board, consisting of Mr. Zsalman, and Mr. Lippolis, and
Mr. Ivins, reviewed Petitioner's allegations of error and
injustice on 5 March 2024, and, pursuant to its regulations,
determined that the partial 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.
3. The Board, having reviewed all the facts of record
pertaining to Petitioner's allegations of error and injustice
finds as follows:
a, Petitioner entered the Marine Corps on 31 August 1999.
On 5 April 2000, he received nonjudicial punishment (NOP) for
disobeying a lawful order by purchasing a vehicle and driving it
while in a student status. On 28 October 2000, he received NUP
for being disrespectful to a non-commissioned officer, being in
an unauthorized absence (UA) status for two hours and failing to
properly secure his weapon. On 25 January 2001, he received NUP
for being UA for 20 minutes. On 30 August 2003, he was
separated with an honorable characterization of service and
assigned an RE-4B reentry code. However, there is no
documentation in his record reflecting any civil or military
illegal drug involvement.
CONCLUSION:
x
Qq
Upon review and consideration of all the evidence of re ord, the
Board concludes that Petitioner's request warrants partial
favorable action.
The Board concludes that based upon his overall record, that
relief in the form of changing his RE-4B to an RE-4 is
warranted. The Board did not consider his request for
administrative correction of his DD Form 214 because he failed
to exhaust an available administrative remedy by requesting that
relief from the Commandant of the Marine Corps.
RECOMMENDATION :
a. That Petitioner's naval record be corrected to show that
he received an RE-4 vice an RE-4B reentry code on 30 August
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.
