AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2008-03373 

 INDEX CODE: 110.00 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

______________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

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

 

2. Or, in the alternative, his RE code be changed so he can 
join the Air National Guard (ANG). 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

On 22 September 2008, the applicant submitted a similar request. 
On 20 May 2009, his request was denied. For an accounting of 
the facts surrounding his previous request and the rationale of 
the Board's earlier decision, see the Record of Proceedings at 
Exhibit H. 

 

On 14 July 2009, the applicant submitted a letter requesting 
reconsideration. He states he is not trying to find the Air 
Force at fault, rather he is seeking clemency. It has been 
14 years since his discharge and he wants to join the Pittsburg 
ANG. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit I.

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 

 

After again reviewing this application and the evidence provided 
in support of his appeal, the Board found no errors in the 
discharge processing and it appears the RE code assigned is 
appropriate and correct. The Board considered the applicant’s 
request on the basis of clemency; however, they did not find the 
evidence presented sufficiently persuasive to recommend granting 
the relief sought on that basis. It remains the opinion of the 
Board that the applicant has failed to sustain his burden of 
proof that he has been the victim of an error or injustice. 
Therefore, the applicant’s request is not favorably considered. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 



 

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.
