RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-04735
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His discharge date be corrected to reflect 15 Jun 1946, instead
of 15 Jun 1945, and his service be corrected to reflect Army
Air Corps, instead of Army of the United States.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was discharged in 1946, not 1945, and was in the Army Air
Corps, not just the Army.
In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of his
Certification of Military Service and correspondence related to
the matter under review.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicants military personnel records were apparently
located in the area most heavily damaged in the fire at the
National Personnel Records Center in 1973. Documents provided
by the applicant indicate he served on active duty with the Army
of the United States 17 Jan 41 through 15 Jun 45.
________________________________________________________________
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS OF THE BOARD:
After careful consideration of applicants request and the
available evidence of record, we find the application untimely.
Applicant did not file within three years after the alleged
error or injustice was discovered as required by Title 10,
United States Code, Section 1552 and Air Force Instruction 36-
2603. The applicant has not shown a plausible reason for the
delay in filing, and we are not persuaded that the record raises
issues of error or injustice which require resolution on the
merits. Thus, we cannot conclude it would be in the interest of
justice to excuse the applicants failure to file in a timely
manner.
________________________________________________________________
RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD:
The application was not timely filed and it would not be in
the interest of justice to waive the untimeliness. It is
the decision of the Board, therefore, to reject the
application as untimely.
