Decket No: 00458-14

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 21 May 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 Marine Corps and began a period of active
duty on 13 March 2006. You submitted a request for a hardship
discharge. Your commanding officer forwarded his recommendation
that your request be approved. On 22 August 2011, you were
honorably released from active duty and assigned an RE-3H ©
(hardship discharge) reentry code.
In its review of your application, the Board considered all
mitigating factors, such as your record of service. However,
the Board found these factors insufficient to warrant changing
your reentry code due to your request for a hardship discharge.
The Board noted that applicable regulations authorize the
assignment of a waivable RE-3H reentry code to individuals who
are separated due to a hardship. The Board thus concluded that
there is no error or injustice in your RE-3H reentry code.
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,
tk, aan.

The applicant received an RE-4 code that bars her from future reentry into military service. A recommendation of an RE-3H is the appropriate reenlistment code to indicate that her request to voluntary separate was due to family hardship. An RE3 reentry code is not an affirmative recommendation for reenlistment, rather it represents that the applicant is not recommended for reenlistment due to a disqualifying factor.
