701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001

Docket No: 4641-14
22 April 2015
tar >
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.
Although your application was not filed ina timely manner, the
Board found it in the interest of justice to waive the statute of
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
2 April 2015. The names and votes of the members of the panel
will be furnished upon request. 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 2 March 1978. You served for four months without
disciplinary incident, but during the period from 25 July 1978 to
11 December 1980, you received nonjudicial punishment (NUP) on
five occasions. Your offenses were unauthorized absence (UA),
failure to obey a lawful regulation, breaking restriction, and
absence from your appointed place of duty
Subsequently, you were notified of pending administrative
separation by reason of misconduct due to a frequent involvement
at which time you waived your procedural rights to consult with
legal counsel and to present your case to an administrative
discharge board (ADB). Your commanding officer recommended
discharge due to frequent involvement. The discharge authority
approved this recommendation and directed separation under other
than honorable conditions by reason of misconduct, and on
16 January 1981, you were so discharged.
The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your desire to upgrade your discharge. Nevertheless, the Board
found that these factors were not sufficient to warrant relief in
your case because of the seriousness of your repeated misconduct.
Further, you were given an opportunity to defend your actions,
but waived your procedural rights. Accordingly, your application
has been denied.
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 within one year from the date of the Board’s decision.
New evidence is evidence not previously considered by the Board
prior 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.
Sincerely,
ROBERT J. O’NEILL
Executive Director
