                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER: BC-1994-10349

            COUNSEL:  NONE



_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His discharge be upgraded to general.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 22 August  1995,  the  Board  considered  applicant’s  request  that  his
discharge under other than honorable conditions  be  changed  to  a  medical
discharge.  The Board found insufficient evidence of an error  or  injustice
and  denied  the  application.   For  an  accounting  of   the   facts   and
circumstances surrounding the application, and the rationale of the  earlier
decision by the Board, see the Record of Proceedings at Exhibit H.

In an application, dated 30 September 2002, the applicant requests that  his
discharge be upgraded to  general  and  provides  additional  documentation.
The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit I.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  After thoroughly  reviewing  the  evidence  of  record  and  noting  the
additional documentation submitted by the applicant, we find no evidence  of
error or injustice.  In  this  respect,  we  note  that  the  applicant  was
erroneously discharged from  active  duty  prior  to  receiving  dual-action
processing by the Secretary of the Air Force as required  by  the  governing
regulations.  However, based on a previous application to  this  Board,  his
disability and administrative discharge packages were forwarded to  the  Air
Force  Personnel  Council  (AFPC)   for   dual-action   processing.    After
considering his administrative discharge and disability packages,  the  AFPC
determined that  he  should  have  been  administratively  discharged.   The
applicant’s contentions regarding his mental condition are  noted;  however,
his mental condition  was  considered  during  his  processing  through  the
Disability Evaluation System and  the  AFPC’s  consideration  of  his  dual-
action processing.  In view of the AFPC’s determination that he should  have
been administratively discharged and since he has provided  no  evidence  to
indicate that his separation was inappropriate, we find no compelling  basis
to recommend granting the relief sought.

2.  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 seriousness of the  events  that
precipitated the discharge, and available  evidence  related  to  his  post-
service activities and accomplishments.  On balance, we do not believe  that
clemency is warranted.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified that the additional  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 discharge authority approved the discharge on 26 November 1982 and directed that he be discharged, with his service characterized as general (under honorable conditions). The applicant did not submit any new evidence or identify any errors or injustices that occurred in the discharge processing, and has provided no other facts warranting an upgrade of the discharge. We also find insufficient evidence to warrant a recommendation that the discharge be upgraded on the basis of clemency.
