RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-01683 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NOT INDICATED 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His under other than honorable conditions (UOTHC) discharge be 
upgraded to honorable. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He needs benefits. 

 

In support of this application, the applicant submits a copy of 
his DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active 
Duty. 

 

The applicant's complete submission, with attachment, is at 
Exhibit A. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

On 19 Jun 62, the applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force. 

 

The applicant was involved in a number of minor disciplinary 
infractions from Oct 63 to Aug 64 for which he received various 
administrative and disciplinary actions. 

 

On 3 Dec 64, his commander notified him that he was recommending 
his discharge under the provisions of AFR 39-17, Unfitness. His 
specific reasons were the applicant’s frequent involvement of a 
discreditable nature with military authorities and his 
established pattern of financial irresponsibility. 

 

On 21 Dec 64, the discharge authority approved the applicant’s 
discharge and an Undesirable Discharge Certificate was issued. 
On 22 Jan 65, the applicant was discharged. He served 1 year, 
11 months and 23 days on active duty. 

 


Pursuant to the Board’s request, the Federal Bureau of 
Investigation (FBI) provided a copy of an Investigative Report, 
which is at Exhibit C. On 11 Aug 11, a copy of the FBI report 
and a request for post-service information was forwarded to the 
applicant for review and comment within 30 days, 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 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. After careful 
consideration of the available evidence, we found no indication 
that the actions taken to effect his discharge were improper or 
contrary to the provisions of the governing regulations in effect 
at the time, or that the actions taken against the applicant were 
based on factors other than his own misconduct. In addition, in 
view of the content of the FBI Identification Record, we are not 
persuaded that the characterization of the applicant’s discharge 
warrants an upgrade to honorable on the basis of clemency. 
Having found no error or injustice with regard to the actions 
that occurred while the applicant was a military member, we 
conclude that no basis exists to grant favorable action on his 
request. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

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.
