SECOND ADDENDUM
RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF: 			DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2007-02347

						COUNSEL:  NONE

						HEARING DESIRED:  NO 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His general (under honorable conditions) discharge be upgraded to honorable.

His narrative reason for separation “Misconduct” reflect “Completion of Required Service.”

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 20 September 2007 and 4 September 2013, the Board considered and denied the applicant’s appeal for an upgrade of his general (under honorable conditions) discharge.  For an accounting of the facts and circumstances surrounding the applicant’s appeal and the rationale of the earlier decisions by the Board, see the Addendum to the Record of Proceedings, with attachments, at Exhibit G.

In an application to the Board dated 27 July 2015, the applicant requests reconsideration.  He states his type of discharge is given when faithful service is marred by the negative aspects of a person’s duty performance or personal conduct - but the negative aspects definitely outweigh the good.  Two months of personal conduct due to inconsistent punishment does not outweigh the positive aspects of honorable service of over six years.  Receiving three non-judicial punishments for one isolated incident is an injustice.  His believes his punishment was too severe.

The applicant's complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit H.

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

In earlier findings, the Board determined there was insufficient evidence to warrant any corrective action.  After thoroughly reviewing the additional documentation submitted in support of this appeal we do not believe the applicant has overcome the rationale expressed in the previous decision.  Therefore, we do not find the additional evidence presented is sufficient to warrant the relief sought on that basis.  In the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis upon which to recommend favorable consideration of the applicant’s request.

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not demonstrate the existence of an 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.
