DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS 701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001 ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490 Docket No. 7713-15 HAY 2 0 2016 Dear This is in reference to your application for correction of your naval record pursuant to the provisions of 10 use 1552. A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records, sitting in executive session, considered your application on 29 April 2016. 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. A review of your record shows that you entered active duty with the Navy in May 2010. On 30 May 2014, you were discharged due to a commission of a serious offense and issued a General characterization of service. No record of your administrative separation is in your record. The Board carefully considered your arguments that you were falsely accused of misconduct and wrongfully processed out of the Navy. In addition, you allege that your administrative separation processing was invalid since your notice of administrative processing was dated two days prior to your scheduled non-judicial punishment hearing. Finally, you contend that you were suffering from a disability condition that required a referral to the Disability Evaluation System. Unfortunately, the Board was unable to find evidence to grant relief in your case. While your personal statement provided the Board your version of events, there was no evidence available to the Board to substantiate your allegations. In the absence of substantial evidence to the contrary, the Board relied on the presumption of regularity of records that the Navy properly processed your case. Accordingly, the Board was unable to find an error or injustice warranting a correction to your record and denied your application. The names and votes of the members of t he panel will be furnished upon request . 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 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 decisi on in ·this case. In this regard, it is important to keep in mi nd that a presumption of regularity attaches to all official r ecords. 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 Di rector
