HEARING DESIRED:  NO 

                            ADDENDUM TO 
                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 
 
IN THE MATTER OF: 
   
   
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 
 
His  undesirable  discharge  be  upgraded  to  a  general  (under 
honorable conditions) discharge or an honorable discharge. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
STATEMENT OF FACTS: 
 
On  31  May  85,  the  Board  considered  and  denied  an  application 
pertaining to the applicant, in which he requested his discharge 
be changed to a general (under honorable conditions) discharge or 
an  honorable  discharge.    For  an  accounting  of  the  facts  and 
circumstances  surrounding  the  applicant’s  request,  and  the 
rationale of the earlier decision of the Board, see the Record of 
Proceedings, with attachments, at Exhibit F. 
 
By  application,  dated  7  Oct  10,  the  applicant  requests 
reconsideration  of  his  request,  contending  his  discharge  was 
inequitable  because  it  was  based  on  one  incident  and  the  fact 
that it was 47 years ago. 
 
In  support  of  the  appeal,  the  applicant  submits  an  expanded 
statement,  an  application  for  disability  insurance  benefits, 
Social Security Administration correspondence, and extracts from 
his master personnel records. 
 
The  applicant’s  complete  submission,  with  attachments,  is  at 
Exhibit G. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 
 
We have thoroughly reviewed the evidence of record and considered 
the weight and relevance of the additional documentation provided 
by the applicant, and whether or not it was discoverable at the 
time  of  any  previous  application.  Additionally,  we  have 
considered the applicant's overall quality of service, the events 
which  precipitated  his  discharge  and  the  available  evidence 
related to post-service activities and accomplishments.  However, 
based  on  the  evidence  of  record,  the  Board  majority  concludes 
that  clemency  is  not  warranted  and  notes  the  applicant  has  not 
provided  sufficient  information  of  post-service  activities  and 

accomplishments.    Should  the  applicant  provide  statements  from 
community  leaders  and  acquaintances  attesting  to  his  good 
character and reputation and other evidence of successful post-
service  rehabilitation,  this  Board  will  reconsider  this  case 
based on the new evidence.  Therefore, in view of the above and 
in the absence of relevant evidence, the Board majority finds no 
basis to reconsider the applicant’s request. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT: 
 
The applicant be notified that the additional evidence presented 
did not meet the criteria for reconsideration by the Board; and 
that  the  application  will  only  be  reconsidered  upon  the 
submission  of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered 
with this application. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
The  following  members  of  the  Board  considered  the  applicant’s 
request for reconsideration of AFBCMR Docket Number 1989-00782 in 
Executive  Session  on  9  March  2011,  under  the  provisions  of  AFI 
36-2603:   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
By majority vote, the Board voted to deny the application.  XXXX 
voted  to  grant  the  request  but  does  not  desire  to  submit  a 
Minority  Report.    The  following  documentary  evidence  was 
considered:
