RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2003-02129
INDEX CODE: 04.27
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His general discharge be upgraded to honorable.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
While under duress, he confessed to some things he did not commit.
When he recanted his confession, he was discharged as a psychopathic
liar.
In support of his appeal, the applicant provided congressional
correspondence, which included his personal statement, and his
certificate of military service.
Applicant's complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant's available military personnel records indicate that he
enlisted in the Air Force on 25 Sep 59. He was discharged on 21 Dec
62 and furnished a general discharge.
(Examiner's Note: Pursuant to the Board's staff's request, the
Federal Bureau of Investigation, Washington, D.C., provided an
investigative report. The report did not appear to pertain to the
applicant, since the applicant was a male and the person identified in
the report was a female. However, they indicated that because of the
identical dates of birth, and similarities in the places of birth and
social security numbers, they were unable to provide any other
investigative report).
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPRS indicated that they were unable to determine the propriety
of the applicant's discharge based on the lack of documentation in his
records. In their view, the applicant did not identify any errors in
the discharge processing, nor provide any facts that supported
upgrading his discharge.
AFPC/DPPRS deferred to the Board for a determination whether the
applicant should be granted relief.
A complete copy of the AFPC/DPPRS evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Applicant reviewed the advisory opinion and furnished a response and
additional documentary evidence which are attached at Exhibit E.
Pursuant to the Board's staff's request, the applicant provided
additional documentary evidence for the Board's consideration, which
is attached at Exhibit G.
_________________________________________________________________
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. The applicant's available
military personnel records indicate that he was discharged on
21 Dec 62 and furnished a general discharge. Based upon 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, based on the available evidence of record, we find no basis
upon which to favorably consider this application.
_________________________________________________________________
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.
