AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

IN THE MATTER OF: 

DOCKET NUMBER:  98-02338 
COUNSEL:  NONE 

FEB  5B99 

HEARING DESIRED:  NO 

Applicant  requests  that  the  character  of  service,  issued  in 
conjunction with  his  24  February 1989  entry  level  separation, be 
changed from uncharacterized to honorable.  Applicant's submission 
is at Exhibit A .  
The appropriate Air Force office evaluated applicant's request and 
provided  an  advisory  opinion  to  the  Board  recommending  the 
application  be  denied  (Exhibit  C) . 
The  advisory  opinion  was 
forwarded to the applicant for review and response (Exhibit D).  As 
of this date, no response has been received by this office. 
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 rebutted by applicant.  Absent 
persuasive evidence applicant was denied rights to which entitled, 
appropri-ate 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 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.  Benedict  A.  Kausal  IV, Mr.  Patrick R. 
Wheeler, and Mrs. Margaret A.  Zook, considered this application on 
5 January  1999  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  Air  Force 
Instruction 36-2603 and the governing statute, 10 U.S.C. 1552.
