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

Docket No: 2347-16/ 5925-14 
JAN l8 2017 

Dear : 

This is in reference to your latest reconsideration request dated 28 March 2016. You previously 
petitioned the Board and were advised in our letter of24 July 2014 that your application had 
been denied. Your case was reconsidered in accordance with Board for Correction ofNaval 
Records procedures that conform to Lipsman v. Secretary of the Army, 335F.Supp.2d 48 (D.D.C 
2004). 

Your current request has been carefully examined by a three-member panel of the Board for 
Correction of Naval Records, sitting in executive session on 14 October 2016. The names and 
votes ofthe members of the panel will be furnished upon request. Documentary material 
considered by the Board consisted of your application and any material submitted in support of 
your application. 

After careful and conscientious consideration ofthe entire record, the Board determined that the 
new statements and letters of recommendation you provided were insufficient to establish the 
existence of probable material error or injustice. The Board gave liberal consideration to the 

statements submitted by and , but were not 
persuaded to conclude that these statements were sufficient to establish an error or injustice 
warranting relief in your case. It was the Board's opinion that the height/weight and body fat 
measurements conducted at the StaffNon-Commissioned Officer Academy (SNCOA) was 
conducted in accordance with Marine Corps regulations and that the contested report is a valid 
report. Accordingly, the Board concurs with the previous Board decision and your application 
has been denied. 

In this regard, the Board found that your contentions are insufficient to warrant further 
consideration in your case. In the absence of sufficiently material evidence for reconsideration, 
the decision of the Board is final, and your only recourse would be to initiate action, at no cost to 
the Board, to a court ofappropriate jurisdiction. 

Sincerely, 


Executive Director
