DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY 
BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS 
701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001 
ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490 
             
Docket No: 2431-19                                                           
Ref: Signature Date 

This letter is in reference to your application for correction of your naval record pursuant to Title 10, United States Code, Section 1552.  After careful and conscientious consideration of the entire record, the Board for Correction of Naval Records (Board) found that the evidence submitted was insufficient to establish the existence of probable material error or injustice.  Consequently, your application has been denied. 

A three-member panel of the Board, sitting in executive session, considered your application on 10 March 2020.  The names and votes of the 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.  The Board also considered the 28 May 2019 advisory opinion (AO) furnished by the Director, Physical Readiness Program Office (OPNAV N170), which was previously provided to you.  Although you were afforded an opportunity to submit a rebuttal, you did not. 

The Board carefully considered your request to correct your Physical Readiness Information Management System (PRIMS) record for your Cycle 1-2017 physical readiness test (PRT) and body composition assessment (BCA).  The Board considered your contention that Cycle 1-2017 should have been waived due to mismanagement and mishandling of information by your command fitness leader by not logging the cardio scores on the PRT score sheet and not loading BCA documents in PRIMS. 

The Board, however, concurred with the AO and concluded that correction of your PRIMS record is not warranted due to insufficient information.  Specifically, there was no date, command fitness leader (CFL) signature, or observer signature on the furnished PRT scoresheet. 

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 the submission of new matters, which will require you to complete and submit a new DD Form 149.  New matters are those not previously presented to or considered by the Board.  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 of probable material error or injustice. 

Sincerely,
