RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 02-00809
INDEX CODE 110.00
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His under other-than-honorable condition (UOTHC) discharge be upgraded
to honorable.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was offered no legal aid or counsel during his discharge. He was
discharged due to indebtedness below $300.
In support of his appeal, the applicant submitted a personal statement
and a copy of his DD Form 214.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant's military personnel records were destroyed by fire in 1973.
Therefore, the facts surrounding his separation from the Air Force
cannot be verified.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing
law or regulations.
2. The application was timely filed.
3. After a thorough review of the evidence of record and
applicant’s submission, we are not persuaded that his discharge should
be upgraded to honorable. We find no impropriety in the
characterization of the applicant's discharge. It appears that
responsible officials applied appropriate standards in effecting the
separation, and we do not find persuasive evidence that pertinent
regulations were violated or that the applicant was not afforded all
the rights to which entitled at the time of discharge. We conclude,
therefore, that the discharge proceedings were proper and
characterization of the discharge was appropriate to the existing
circumstances. The only other basis upon which to upgrade this
discharge would be based on clemency. However, the applicant failed
to provide documentation pertaining to his post-service activities.
Should he provide documentary evidence pertaining to his post-service
activities, we would be willing to reconsider his appeal. In the
absence of such evidence, favorable action is not recommended.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of probable material error or injustice;
that the application was denied without a personal appearance; and
that the application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this
application.
