ADDENDUM TO RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2015-01249

	COUNSEL: NONE
	
	HEARING: NO

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

The Board reconsider his request to upgrade his under other than honorable conditions (UOTHC) discharge to a general (under honorable conditions) discharge.

RESUME OF THE CASE:

On 19 Nov 15, the Board considered and denied a request for correction of military records submitted by the applicant, finding that the applicant had provided insufficient evidence of an error or injustice to justify relief.

For an accounting of the applicant’s requests and the rationale of the earlier decision, see the AFBCMR Letter and Record of Proceedings at Exhibit G.

On 9 Nov 16, the applicant requested reconsideration of his request to upgrade his UOTHC discharge to general (under honorable conditions).  He contends his discharge should be upgraded based on discrimination while on active duty.  The applicant provides a letter in support of his request.  The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit H.

On 3 Aug 17, a request for information pertaining to his post-service activities was forwarded to the applicant for review and response within 30 days (Exhibit I).  As of this date, no response has been received by this office.

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

After reviewing all Exhibits, the Board remains unconvinced the evidence presented demonstrates an error or injustice and therefore finds no basis to recommend granting the requested relief.  In the interest of justice, we considered upgrading the discharge based on clemency; however, the applicant has not provided sufficient evidence to recommend granting relief on that basis.  Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting the relief sought.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:

The applicant be informed the evidence did not demonstrate material error or injustice, and the application will only be reconsidered upon receipt of relevant evidence not already considered by the Board.

CERTIFICATION:

The following quorum of the Board, as defined in Air Force Instruction (AFI) 36-2603, Air Force Board for Correction of Military Records (AFBCMR), paragraph 1.5, considered Docket Number BC-2015-01249 in Executive Session on 8 May 18:
