DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS

701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490

 

TLG
Docket No: 7233-14
7 July 2015

 

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 in a 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

1 July 2015. 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 were commissioned in the Marine Corps and began a period of

active duty on 24 July 1972. On 13 March 1974, you were
convicted by general court-martial of violating a lawful general
order, borrowing money from enlisted personnel, accepting loans
in an official capacity, signing a false official statement, and
subscribing to a false affidavit. You were sentence to a $1,000
fine, letter of reprimand, and loss of lineal numbers.

On 15 April 1976, you were honorably released from active duty
after requesting to be discharged with severance pay.
The Board, in its review of your entire record and application,
carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as
your desire to remove derogatory material and assertion of
receiving a full presidential pardon. Nevertheless, the Board
concluded these factors were not sufficient to warrant relief in
your case given the seriousness of your misconduct as evidenced
by your GCM conviction. In regards to your assertion, your
record did not contain any evidence supporting a presidential
‘pardon. 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
applying for correction of an official naval record, the burden
is on the applicant to demonstrate the existence of the probable
material error or injustice.
