                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:                 DOCKET NO.:  00-00842
                       INDEX CODE:  31.00
                       COUNSEL:  NONE

                       HEARING DESIRED:  YES


The applicant requests his general (under honorable conditions) discharge
be  upgraded  to  honorable,  the  reason  for  his  discharge  and   his
reenlistment eligibility (RE) code be changed, and his previous grade  of
SSgt (E-5) be reinstated.  The applicant's submission is at Exhibit A.

The appropriate Air Force offices evaluated the applicant's requests  and
provided advisory opinions to the Board recommending the  application  be
denied (Exhibit C).  The Air Force Discharge Review Board (AFDRB)  denied
the applicant’s request for upgrade of his discharge  (Exhibit  D).   The
advisory opinions and AFDRB Brief were forwarded  to  the  applicant  for
review and response.  As of  this  date,  this  office  has  received  no
response (Exhibit E).

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 decision of the AFDRB  appears  to  be
based on the evidence of record and has not been adequately  rebutted  by
the applicant.  Absent  persuasive  evidence  the  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 applicant's case is adequately documented and it has not  been  shown
that a personal appearance with or without counsel will materially add to
our understanding of the issues involved.  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 available at the time the application was filed.

Members of the Board Ms. Kathy L.  Boockholdt, Ms. Barbara J. White-Olson
and Mr. Steven A. Shaw considered this application on  31  May  2001,  in
accordance with the provisions of Air Force Instruction 36-2603  and  the
governing statute, 10 U.S.C. 1552.
