AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2013-03252
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His general (under honorable conditions) discharge be upgraded
to honorable.
________________________________________________________________
RESUME OF CASE:
On 29 Apr 14, the Board considered and denied the applicants
request to upgrade his general (under honorable conditions)
discharge to honorable. For an accounting of the facts and
circumstances surrounding the applicants requests, and the
rationale of the earlier decision by the Board, see the Record
of Proceedings at Exhibit D.
On 26 May 14, the applicant submitted a request for
reconsideration based on clemency. As new evidence, he submits
a two-page typed statement outlining his life since leaving the
military. Additionally, he included a copy of his FBI Criminal
History Record Information.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit E.
________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
After again reviewing this application and the supporting
documents provided by the applicant, we remain unconvinced that
any relief is warranted. In the interest of justice, we
considered upgrading the discharge based on clemency; however, we
do not find the evidence presented is sufficient to compel us to
recommend granting the relief sought on that basis at that time.
Therefore, in view of the above, and in the absence of evidence
to the contrary, we conclude that no basis exist to upgrade the
applicants general discharge.
________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; the
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this
application.
