RESUME OF CASE:
On 8 Apr 15, the applicant requested he be awarded the VCM.
On 21 Jan 16, the Board considered and denied the applicant’s request. Specifically, the Board determined the applicant’s case was not timely filed and it would not be in the interest of justice to waive the untimeliness. For a full accounting of the facts surrounding his previous request and the rationale of the Board’s earlier decision, see the Record of Proceedings with attachments A through E at Exhibit F.

By DD Form 149 dated 20 Jun 16, the applicant submitted a request for reconsideration, wherein he contends he was in Vietnam. The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit G.

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
After again reviewing this application and the evidence provided in support of his appeal we remain unpersuaded, the evidence presented demonstrates the existence of an error or injustice. Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting the requested relief.

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.
