RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2006-02045
INDEX CODE: 110.02
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE: 21 APR 2007
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His general (under honorable conditions) discharge be upgraded to an
honorable discharge.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He separated early to attend college and no disciplinary action was
associated with his discharge.
In support of his request, applicant provided DD Form 293, Application for
the Review of Discharge or Dismissal from the Armed Forces of the United
States.
His complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant's military personnel records were destroyed by fire at the
National Personnel Records Center in 1973. Therefore, the facts
surrounding his separation cannot be verified. Data extracted from his
reconstructed records reflects that he was discharged on 4 March 1960, and
received a general (under honorable conditions discharge.
Based on the limited documentation available for review, the applicant was
requested to furnish information concerning the basis for his separation
from the Air Force (Exhibit C).
_________________________________________________________________
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. 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. The only other basis upon which to
upgrade his discharge would be clemency. However, applicant has failed to
provide documentation pertaining to his post service activities. Should he
provide documentary evidence pertaining to his post service activities we
would be willing to reconsider his appeal. In the absence of such
evidence, favorable action is not recommended. 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 probable 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 separation and directed he be discharged with an undesirable discharge. DPPRS states based on the documentation on file in the master personnel records, the discharge was consistent with the procedural and substantive requirements of the discharge regulation.
