ror or
You enlisted in the Navy and began a period of active duty on
10 February 1987. On 12 February 1987, you were diagnosed with
peptic ulcer disease that existed prior to your entry into the
service. On 19 February 1987, a medical Board recommended that
you be separated from the Navy, and you were notified that you
were being recommended for separation. After being afforded all
of your procedural rights, you received an entry level separation
due to erroneous enlistment on 24 February 1987. At that time
you were assigned an RE-3E reenlistment code. In this regard,
you were assigned the most favorable reentry code based on your
circumstances.
The Board, in its review of your record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your short period of service, and desire to upgrade your RE-3E
reenlistment code. Nevertheless, the Board concluded these
factors were not sufficient to warrant a change in your
reenlistment code given the reason for your discharge. In this
regard, an RE-3E reenlistment code is authorized when a Sailor is
discharged due to an erroneous entry, and is not recommended for
retention. Accordingly, your application has been denied.
Tt 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 within, one year from the date of the Board’s decision.
New ,eyidence c@ vidence not previously considered by the Board
pri8r.to making its decision in your case. 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.
