RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NO: 98-02813
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
Applicant requests that his discharge be upgraded to honorable.
Applicant's submission is at Exhibit A.
The Air Force Discharge Review Board (AFDRB) upgraded the applicant’s
discharge to general on 12 September 1978. On 14 October 1998, the
applicant requested his discharge be upgraded to honorable. The AFDRB brief
was forwarded to applicant for review and response (Exhibit D). As of
this date, no response has been received by this office
The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the interest of
justice to excuse the failure to timely file.
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 AFDRB
brief appear to be based on the evidence of record and their basis for not
upgrading the discharge to honorable has not been rebutted by applicant.
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 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. Vaughn E. Schlunz, Mr. Richard A. Peterson, and
Mr. Walter J. Hosey, considered this application on 10 February 1999, in
accordance with the provisions of Air Force Instruction 36-2603, and the
governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.
