                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  02-02130
            INDEX CODE:  110.02

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

_________________________________________________________________


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His general discharge be  upgraded  to  honorable  and  his  narrative
reason for separation be changed.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

The reasons the applicant believes the  records  to  be  in  error  or
unjust and the evidence submitted in support  of  the  appeal  are  at
Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The relevant facts pertaining to this application are contained in the
letter  prepared  by  the  appropriate  office  of  the   Air   Force.
Accordingly, there is no need to recite these facts in this Record  of
Proceedings.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPRS  reviewed  this   application   and   recommended   denial.
A complete copy of the evaluation is at Exhibit C.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to applicant on 9 Aug
02 for review and response.  As of this date,  no  response  has  been
received by this office (Exhibit D).

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing  law
or regulations.

2.  The application was not  timely  filed;  however,  it  is  in  the
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.

3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented  to  demonstrate
the existence of error or injustice.  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 evidence of record and have not  been  rebutted  by
applicant.   We  also  find  insufficient  evidence   to   warrant   a
recommendation  that  the  discharge  be  upgraded  on  the  basis  of
clemency.  We have  considered  the  applicant’s  overall  quality  of
service, the events which precipitated the  discharge,  and  available
evidence related to post-service activities and  accomplishments.   On
balance, we  do  not  believe  that  clemency  is  warranted.   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.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The  applicant  be  notified  that  the  evidence  presented  did  not
demonstrate the existence of 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.

_________________________________________________________________

    The applicant did not submit any new evidence nor provide facts warranting an upgrade of his discharge. However, as of this date, this office has received no response. After thoroughly reviewing the evidence of record and noting the applicant’s complete submission, we are not persuaded that a change to his characterization of service is warranted.
