DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY 
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS 
701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001 
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490 
Docket No 5055-16 

Dear

This is in reference to your application for correction ofyour naval record pursuant to the provisions of 10 USC 1552. 

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction ofNaval Records, sitting in executive session, considered your application on 13 October 2016. Your allegations oferror 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. The advisory opinion provided in HQMC memo 1610 MMRP-13/PERB dated 24 May 2016 was sent to you on 24 May 2016 for an opportunity to comment prior to being considered by the Board. A copy of this advisory opinion is again enclosed. After the 30 day period for comment expired without a response, the case was presented to the Board. 

After careful and conscientious consideration of the entire record, the Board found that the evidence submitted was insufficient to establish the existence of probable material error or injustice. In this connection, the Board substantially concurred with the comments contained in the advisory opinion. The Board noted that the documentation you provided from your visit to a medical facility does not state that you were injured as a result of the PFT or as a result of the warm-up exercises for the PFT. The documentation you provided does not identify the time you reported to the Emergency Room nor the time you were discharged and the advocacy 
memorandum from former does not provide the actual date you were evolution. 

The Board also noted that you acknowledged the report and elected not to submit any statement or rebuttal at the time ofthe report. Accordingly, your application has been denied. The names and votes of the members of the panel will be furnished upon request. 

It is regretted that the circumstances ofyour 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 decision in this case. 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 ofprobable material error or injustice. 

Sincerely, 

Executive Director
