with his 1 Sep 65 discharge, the applicant was honorably
discharged in the grade of SSgt. He was credited with 13 years, 3
months and 13 days of active service.

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant
on 20 Jun 14 for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D).
As of this date, no response has been received by this office.
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 an error or injustice. We took
notice of the applicants complete submission in judging the
merits of the case; however, we agree with the opinion and
recommendation of the Air Force office of primary responsibility
and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion that there
is no evidence of an error of injustice. Therefore, in the
absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend
granting the requested relief.

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
