BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS 
701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001 
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490 

Docket No. 8640-17 
MAR 12 2018 

Dear , 

This is in reference to your application for correction of your naval record pursuant to the 
provisions ofTitle 10 U.S.C. § 1552. 

A three-member panel of the Board for Correction ofNaval Records, sitting in executive session, 
considered your application on 5 February 2018. The names and votes ofthe 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.  

After careful and conscientious consideration ofthe entire record, the Board found that the 
evidence submitted was insufficient to establish the existence ofprobable material error or 
injustice. Navy Transferability policies were promulgated at the time ofyour initial and 
subsequent request and clearly outlined the administrative processing requirements. Specifically, 
Navy Administrative (NA V ADMIN) message 203109 dated 11 July 2009 summarizes the 
requirement for the NAVPERS 1070/613, Administrative Remarks to be entered in a member's 
electronic service record before applying to transfer Post-9111 GI Bill education benefits. 
Additionally, NAV ADMIN 203/09 indicates that members whose applications are disapproved 
will be required to reapply for Transferability with a new service obligation end date. In this 
connection, the Board concluded by reapplying for the benefits, you acknowledged your service 
obligation for the transfer ofPost-9/11 GI Bill education benefits. 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 ofprobable material error or injustice. 

Sincerely, 


Executive Director
