APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

pay.

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 5 Aug 03, the Board denied the applicant’s request that his 
BCD be upgraded to a medical discharge to allow him to receive 
full Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) benefits.  A copy of 
the Record of Proceedings is at Exhibit F (with Exhibits A 
through E).

By application, dated 16 Jun 09, the applicant requests 
reconsideration and contends that he did not receive proper 
medical treatment for his drug addiction problem prior to his 
discharge from the Air Force.

In support of the appeal, the applicant provides two personal 
statements, and two letters of support (Exhibit G).

Pursuant to the Board's request, the Federal Bureau of 
Investigation (FBI), Clarksburg, WV, provided a copy of an 
Investigation Report, which is at Exhibit H.

A copy of the FBI Report was provided to the applicant on 
4 Aug 09, for review and response within 30 days.  As of this 
date no response has been received by this office (Exhibit I).

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

In an earlier finding, the Board determined that there was 
insufficient evidence to warrant any corrective action regarding 
the applicant’s request for upgrade of his BCD.  We have 
reviewed the applicant’s most recent submission and find the 
evidence provided insufficient to warrant a reversal of our 
previous determination in this case.  The applicant again has 
not provided any evidence that his service characterization, 
which had its basis in his conviction by general court-martial 
and was a part of the sentence of the military court, was 
improper.  The documentation provided with his most recent 
submission was noted.  However, because of the limited nature of 
the documentation concerning his activities since leaving the 
service, as well as the extensive FBI report, we are not 
inclined to recommend upgrading his discharge based on clemency 
at this time.  Accordingly, we find no basis to act favorably on 
his request for upgrade of his BCD.

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice; that the 
application was denied without a personal appearance; and that 
the application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of 
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this 
application.
