RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2007-02843
		INDEX CODE:  110.00
		COUNSEL:  NONE
		HEARING DESIRED:  NO

______________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His under honorable conditions (general) discharge be upgraded to honorable, his Separation Program Designator (SPD) Code, his Reentry (RE) Code and the Narrative Reason for Separation be changed, based on clemency.  

______________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

A similar appeal was considered and denied by the Board on 6 Feb 08.  For an accounting of the facts and circumstances surrounding his request, and the rationale for the earlier decision by the Board, see the Record of Proceedings, with attachments, at Exhibit I.

In his 4 Mar 08 submission the applicant states he found no reference to his original request for clemency in the determination letter from the Board.  He believes that the behavior that led to his discharge was no longer a part of the person he has become, and that his request for clemency was a way to allow him to serve in the Reserves.  He submitted copies of two Board cases where clemency was considered.  He believes these cases give a reasonable cause for him to believe that the material presented on his behalf could be considered for clemency.  His complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit J.

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

After careful reconsideration of the circumstances of the applicant’s discharge, the narrative reason for his separation, and the SPD and RE codes he received, and after considering the additional documentation provided, it appears that he has been a productive member of society since leaving the service.  According1y, we believe it would be an injustice for him to continue to suffer the adverse effects of the discharge, the narrative reason for separation, and the SPD code and RE code he 
received over 15 years ago.  Therefore, we recommend his records be corrected as indicated below.

_______________________________________________________________

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force relating to APPLICANT be corrected to show that on 1 November 1982, he was honorably discharged under the provisions of AFR 39-10, paragraph 1-2, (Secretarial Authority) with a separation code of KFF and a reenlistment eligibility (RE) code of 3K.
