                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:                 DOCKET NO: 98-01732
                             INDEX CODE: 108.01 108.10
                             COUNSEL: DAV

                             HEARING DESIRED: Yes

Applicant requests that his 1969 release from active duty  be  changed
to  a  medical  discharge  with  a  compensable  rating.   Applicant's
submission is at Exhibit A.

The appropriate  Air Force offices evaluated applicant's  request  and
provided advisory opinions to the Board recommending  the  application
be denied (Exhibit C). The advisory opinions were forwarded to counsel
for review and response  (Exhibit  D).  Applicant's  response  to  the
advisory opinion is at Exhibit  E.  His  counsel  apparently  did  not
provide a rebuttal.

After careful consideration of applicant's request and  the  available
evidence  of  record,  we  find  insufficient  evidence  of  error  or
injustice to warrant corrective action.  The facts and opinions stated
in the advisory opinion appear to be based on the evidence  of  record
and have not been persuasively rebutted by the applicant  or  counsel.
Absent persuasive  evidence  applicant  was  denied  rights  to  which
entitled, appropriate regulations were not  followed,  or  appropriate
standards were not applied, we find no basis to disturb  the  existing
record.

Accordingly, applicant's request is denied.

The documentation provided with this case was sufficient to  give  the
Board a clear understanding of the  issues  involved  and  a  personal
appearance, with or without legal counsel, would not  have  materially
added to that understanding.  Therefore, the request for a hearing  is
not favorably considered.

The Board staff is directed to  inform  applicant  of  this  decision.
Applicant should also be informed that this decision is final and will
only be reconsidered upon the presentation of  new  relevant  evidence
which was not reasonably available at the  time  the  application  was
filed.

Members of the Board Mr. Wayne R. Gracie, Mr. Lawrence R.  Leehy,  and
Ms. Leta L. O’Connor considered this application on 26 August 1999  in
accordance with the provisions of Air Force Instruction  36-2603,  and
the governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.
