                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  00-02479
            INDEX CODE:  110.00

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO


Applicant requests that his under other than honorable conditions  discharge
be upgraded to a  general  (under  honorable  conditions)  or  an  honorable
discharge.  Applicant's submission is at Exhibit A.

Applicant's military personnel records  were  destroyed  by  fire  in  1973.
Therefore, the facts surrounding his separation from the  Air  Force  cannot
be  verified.   However,  the  reconstructed  military  records   that   are
available are attached at Exhibit B.

After careful consideration of applicant’s request, we note that  there  are
limited  records  available  for  review  and  applicant  has  not  provided
documentation revealing the circumstances of his discharge.  Therefore,  due
to the lack of records upon which to determine whether  or  not  applicant’s
separation  was  appropriate.   However,  based  on   the   presumption   of
regularity in the conduct of governmental affairs and  without  evidence  to
the contrary, we must assume that the applicant’s discharge was  proper  and
in compliance with appropriate directives.   Therefore,  we  find  no  basis
upon which to favorably consider this application.

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. William E. Edwards, and  Ms.
Brenda L.  Romine  considered  this  application  on  30  November  2000  in
accordance with the provisions of Air Force  Instruction  36-2603,  and  the
governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.




                                     VAUGHN E. SCHLUNZ
