                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:                 DOCKET NO: 99-01398
                             INDEX CODE 106.00
                             COUNSEL: None

                             HEARING DESIRED: No

Applicant requests that his 1961  general  discharge  be  upgraded  to
honorable.  Applicant's submission is at Exhibit A.

Applicant’s military personnel records were destroyed by fire in 1973.
On 4 June 1999,  the  applicant  was  invited  to  provide  additional
information to help reconstruct his records;  he  has  not  responded.
Therefore, the facts surrounding his  1961  separation  from  the  Air
Force cannot be verified. 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, this office has received no response.

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  available  evidence
and have 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  Mrs.  Barbara  A.  Westgate,  Mr.  William  H.
Anderson, and Mr. Philip Sheuerman considered this  application  on  1
December  1999  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  Air   Force
Instruction 36-2603, and the governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.
