States Code, Section 1552.

limitations and consider your application on its merits. A
three-member panel of the Board for Correction.of Naval Records,
sitting in executive. session, considered your application on 17
March 2015. The names and votes of the members of the panel will
be furnished upon request. Your allegations of error and

regulations and’ procedures applicable to the proceedings of this

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

_ toestablish the-éxistence of probable material error or

You enlisted in“the Navy and“began a period of active. duty ‘on 13.
November ’.2003.. Your record refledts that’ on 13 February 2606 you
received nonjudicial ‘punishment for assault, and were convicted

Discharge Review Board (NDRB) changed your characterization of
service to “honorable” and your narrative reason for separation
to “Secretarial Authority.” © 000 er beh
a

The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your desire to change your RE-4 reenlistment code and to
reinstate your paygrade to FC2/E-5 based on the changes in your
record made by NDRB. Nevertheless, the Board concluded these
factors were not sufficient to warrant relief in your case
because of the seriousness of your misconduct in both the
military and civilian communities. Further, the Board noted that
you were found guilty at NUP and by civil authorities, and as
such were reduced in paygrade and not recommended for retention
or reenlistment. With that being said, the Board concluded that
the changes made by NDRB in no way negated these actions.
Finally, the Board believed that you were fortunate to have
received a change in your record and concluded that any further
soange was unwarranted. Accordingly, your application has been
enied.- : .

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 matérial
evidence or other matter not previously considered by the Board
within one year from the date of the Board's decision. 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,

   

 

 

OBERT J. O'NEILL
Executive Director
