ADDENDUM TO
RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF: 			DOCKET NUMBER: BC-1996-02123

						COUNSEL:  NONE

						HEARING DESIRED:  NO 


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Bad Conduct Discharge (BCD) be upgraded to general (under 
honorable conditions).


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 12 Jun 98, a similar appeal was considered and denied by the 
Board.  For an accounting of the facts and circumstances 
surrounding the applicant’s appeal, and, the rationale of the 
Board’s decision, see the Record of Proceedings at Exhibit G, with 
attachment.

The applicant requests reconsideration of his BCD to be upgraded 
to a general discharge.  He contends that he served 9 months in 
confinement.  A life sentence was too harsh.  If this was in the 
civilian court, probation would be granted.  He admitted to being 
wrong.  This has changed his life; he has been a Pastor for over 5 
years; mentored young people, and help senior citizens within his 
community.

In support of his appeal, the applicant provides numerous letters 
of character reference.

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at 
Exhibit H.

A copy of the clemency bulletin was forwarded to the applicant on 
11 Aug 14, for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit I).  

Pursuant to the Board’s request, the applicant provided a copy of 
a letter from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) indicating 
that on the basis of the information provided, they were unable to 
locate an arrest record (Exhibit J).


THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

In an earlier finding, the Board determined there was insufficient 
evidence to warrant corrective action.  We have reviewed the 
numerous letters of character reference and support provided by 
the applicant and the Board commends the applicant on his 
accomplishments since leaving the service; however, the additional 
information did not to our satisfaction specifically substantiate 
the applicant’s entitlement to the requested relief or to overturn 
the earlier decision of the Board.  In view of the above, we find 
no basis upon which to recommend favorable consideration of the 
applicant’s request.


THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; the 
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the 
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of newly 
discovered relevant evidence not considered with this application.

    By letter dated, 9 Dec 76, the Air Force Discharge Review Board (AFDRB) notified the applicant that his discharge was upgraded to general (under honorable conditions). However, in view of the AFDRB’s earlier decision, and the contents of the FBI Report, we are unpersuaded that an upgrade of the characterization of his discharge to fully honorable, his RE code of 2, or his reason for separation is warranted.
