BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
701 5. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2450

 

SIN
Docket No: 3456-14
10 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 on 8 July 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
te establish the existence of probable material error or
injustice.

You enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserve and began a period of
active duty on 27 December 1994. On 22 July 1995, you were
honorably released from initial active duty for training (IADT)
and transferred to your reserve unit. On 19 February 1998, you
were warned regarding three unauthorized absences (UA’s) from
drill. Your record appears to reflect that you did not attend
drill with your reserve unit as you were required to do. Based
on your non-participation, administrative discharge action was
initiated and on 13 April 1998 the separation authority directed
that you receive an other than honorable discharge. On 5 June
1998, you were so discharged.

The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your youth and prior active duty. Nevertheless, the Board found
that these factors were not sufficient to warrant
recharacterization of your discharge given your failure to drill
with your reserve unit as required. 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,

ROBERT DS/ZSALMAN
Acting Executive Director
