                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-1999-01926
            INDEX CODE:  A68.00

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  YES

MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE:  14 Aug 06

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His bad conduct discharge (BCD) be upgraded to general.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On  10  Jan  01,  the  Board  considered  and  denied  an  application
pertaining to the applicant, in which he requested  that  his  BCD  be
upgraded to general.  A complete copy of the Record of Proceedings  is
attached at Exhibit H (with Exhibits A through G).

By application, dated 31 Jan 05, the applicant again requests that his
BCD be upgraded to general.  He indicates  it  has  been  seven  years
since his discharge, and he has  tried  to  better  himself.   He  has
admitted to his misconduct, and is trying to move on  with  his  life.
He believes that he served his country proudly  and  would  feel  much
better about himself without the stigma of the BCD.

Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit I.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  In an earlier finding, we determined that there  was  insufficient
evidence to warrant any corrective action  regarding  the  applicant’s
request for upgrade of his BCD.  We have reviewed the applicant’s most
recent submission and  find  the  evidence  provided  insufficient  to
warrant a reversal of our previous determination in  this  case.   The
applicant again  has  not  provided  any  evidence  that  his  service
characterization, which had its basis in  his  conviction  by  general
court-martial and was a part of the sentence of  the  military  court,
was  improper.   The  documentation  provided  with  his  most  recent
submission was noted.  However, because of the  short  duration  since
the applicant’s separation and the  serious  nature  of  the  offenses
committed, we do not find  upgrading  the  applicant’s  BCD  based  on
clemency is appropriate in this case at this  time.   Accordingly,  we
find no basis to act favorably on his request for upgrade of his BCD.

2.  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 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.
