DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS
701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001 
ARLINGTON, VA  22204-2490                   


Docket No: 1491-18
									

Dear 

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.  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.  Consequently, your application has been denied.     

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records, sitting in executive session, considered your application on 27 November 2018.  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, relevant portions of your naval record, the Advisory Opinion (AO) furnished by the Physical Readiness Program Office (OPNAV N170), letter from the Commanding Officer, and applicable statutes, regulations and policies.  

The Board, in its review of your entire record and application, carefully considered your desire to update the Physical Readiness Information Management System information to include your Physical Readiness Test (PRT) results for Cycle 1-2013.   The Board considered your contention that the unit was deployed when you reported aboard, therefore you were unable to participate in a PRT during the 1-2013 Cycle.  The Board concurred with the AO and concluded that you failed to provide evidence to support your request.  
  
It is regretted that the circumstances of your case are such that favorable action cannot be taken at this time.  You are entitled to have the Board reconsider its decision upon the submission of new and material evidence.  New evidence is evidence 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,

Executive Director
