Docket No: 7633-20 
Ref: Signature Date 

Dear :  
 
This is in reference to your application for correction of your naval record pursuant to Section 1552 of Title 10, United States Code.  After careful and conscientious consideration of relevant portions of your naval record and your application, the Board for Correction of Naval Records (Board) found the evidence submitted insufficient to establish the existence of probable material error or injustice.  Consequently, your application has been denied.     
 
Your application was filed in a timely manner and the Board found it in the interest of justice to 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 4 January 2021.  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, and applicable statutes, regulations, and policies. 
  
You enlisted in the Navy and began a period of active duty on 13 December 2017.  You completed a period of active service on 20 June 2019 and were separated under honorable circumstances with an RE-3G reenlistment code.  Your DD-214 notes that the reason for your separation was “Condition, Not a Disability.”  
 
You have requested an upgrade of your reentry code of RE-3G be upgraded to RE-1.  In your application, you stated that you deserve a second chance because you worked hard and put in countless hours studying and working to be the best Sailor.  You asserted that, in boot camp, you pushed hard and received an excellent on the final.  You also asserted that your goal at A school was to finish top of your class and you became a “red rope” student leader. You also noted that your CO rewarded you with two letters of commendation, you received three coins and the rank of third class petty officer.  You also asserted that, in the training sector of , you completed a four month course in eight week with a perfect score and trained sailors in the training sector, but noted there was favoritism and sexism.  You also asserted that you requested to be on nights, but a PO1 said “females will stay on days” until you called him out for being sexist.  You described a motor vehicle accident in which your back was injured.  You asserted your chief was not happy with this, treated you poorly and denied a request to switch teams.  You also asserted the chief referred you to the hospital because she believed you were suicidal, said you were self-centered, a bad influence and other junior sailors were talking about how they want to get out of the Navy.   
 
The Board reviewed all of your assertions and contentions, and concluded these factors and assertions were not sufficient to warrant a change to your discharge status, given your diagnosis, which resulted in an administrative separation for Condition Not a Disability.  Your original service record was incomplete and did not contain some documentation pertaining to your separation from the Navy.  The Board noted that you provided little evidence to support your contentions.  Absent such evidence, the Board relied upon the presumption of regularity and presumed that the officials acted in accordance with governing law/policy and in good faith.   
 
In reviewing the circumstances of your separation and characterization of service, the Board considered the totality of the circumstances to determine whether relief is appropriate today in the interests of justice in accordance with guidance provided by the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness (Wilkie Memo of 25 July 2018).  Accordingly, the Board considered and acknowledged your positive contributions to the Navy, the length of your active duty service to our nation, and your post-discharge achievements.  Even considering these potentially mitigating factors in accordance with the above referenced guidance, the Board did not find that relief was in the interest of justice.  The Board concluded that your reenlistment code was issued without error or injustice, and that corrective action is not warranted. 
  
You are entitled to have the Board reconsider its decision upon submission of new matters, which will require you to complete and submit a new DD Form 149. New matters are those not previously presented to or 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,
