DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS 701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001 ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490 Docket No: 1820-1 7 Dear This is in reference to your application for correction of your naval record pursuant to the provisions ofTitle 10 of the United States Code, Section 1552. A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records, sitting in executive session, considered your application on l 0 May 2017. The names and votes of the members ofthe panel will be furnished upon request. Your allegations of error and injustice were reviewed in accordance with administrative regulations a'nd 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. On 28 August 20 14, you were issued an Administrative Remarks (Page 11) counseling for your possible improper relationship with a commissioned officer of the United States Anny. A command investigation was done to investigate possible fraternization and adultery, as you are married and so was the officer in question. You were advised that this type of behavior was unacceptable and if evidence was found, you could be punished for misconduct punishable under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. After careful and conscientious consideration ofthe entire record, the Board found the evidence submitted was insufficient to establish the existence of probable material error or injustice. The Board carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, such as your desire to have your Page 11 counseling dated 28 August 2014, removed from you Official Military Performance File (OMPF) and your contention that because the Page 11 counseling states "your possible improper relationship," means to you that it was not proven. Regarding your contention, there is no supporting evidence in the record. The Board concluded these factors were not sufficient to warrant the removal of the Page 11 counseling from your OMPF. Accordingly, your application has been denied. It is regretted that the circumstances ofyour 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 ofregularity 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
