                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2005-00426
            INDEX CODE:  126.03

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  YES

MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE:  9 Aug 06

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

The Letter of Reprimand (LOR) he received on 3 Dec 04 be removed  from
his existing Unfavorable Information File (UIF).

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

The LOR was not issued in accordance with  the  governing  instruction
(AFI 36-2907).

In support of his appeal, the applicant provided copies of the LOR and
UIF, and excerpts from AFI 36-2907.

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

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

Information extracted from the Personnel Data System  (PDS)  indicates
the applicant is currently serving on active  duty  in  the  grade  of
first lieutenant, having been promoted to that grade  on  29  Apr  03.
His Total Active Federal Military Service Date (TAFMSD) is 1 May 01.

On 3 Dec 04, the applicant received  an  LOR  after  an  investigation
revealed that from approximately May 04 through Sep 04  his  excessive
use  of  government  e-mail  for  unofficial  purposes  led   to   the
misuse/unauthorized abuse of government systems.  His abuse included e-
mail discussions, which included explicit sexual content.  The LOR was
added to the applicant’s existing UIF.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPF recommended denial indicating  that  Lieutenant  Colonel  (Lt
Col) B---, Commander, 37th Mission Support Squadron (37 MSS/CC) is the
Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) administrative unit  commander
for the 37th Training Wing (37 TRW) staff personnel.  The applicant is
assigned to 37 TRW/XP and detailed out  to  37 TRW/IG--both  are  wing
staff agencies within the administrative control/command of 37 MSS/CC.
 As a result, Lt Col B--- was authorized to issue the LOR and was  not
required to obtain any endorsement, either from a supervisor  or  wing
staff  agency  chief.   In  AFPC/DPF’s  view,  the  LOR   was   issued
appropriately.

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPF evaluation is at Exhibit C.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to applicant on 8 Apr
05 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 timely filed.

3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented  to  demonstrate
the  existence  of  error  or  injustice.   The  applicant’s  complete
submission was thoroughly  reviewed  and  his  contentions  were  duly
noted.  However, we do not find his assertions  or  the  documentation
submitted in support of his appeal sufficiently persuasive to  warrant
corrective action.  The evidence of  record  indicates  the  applicant
received an LOR after an investigation revealed that his excessive use
of  government   e-mail   for   unofficial   purposes   led   to   the
misuse/unauthorized abuse of government systems.  His abuse included e-
mail discussions, which included explicit sexual content.  The LOR was
added to the applicant’s existing UIF.  After a thorough review of the
facts and circumstances of this case, we find no evidence which  would
lead us to believe the information used as a basis  for  the  LOR  was
erroneous, or that there was an abuse of discretionary authority.   In
view of the foregoing, and in the absence of  sufficient  evidence  to
the contrary, we conclude that no basis exists to recommend  favorable
action on the applicant’s request the LOR be voided and  removed  from
his records.

4.  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.

    The applicant’s argument seems to be that since the Air Force ultimately paid his claim, he did nothing to warrant an LOR or a referral OPR. First, the applicant’s commander could have found that he committed fraud when he filed his original claim with the Air Force. Exhibit H. Letter, Applicant, dated 4 Jul 10, w/atchs.
