PER CURIAM:
Appellant’s case is before this court a second time. Our court previously
remanded this case to the Chief Trial Judge, Air Force Trial Judiciary, to re-
United States v. Brown, No. ACM 39854 (f rev)
solve Appellant’s sole assignment of error, a substantial issue with the conven-
ing authority’s decision memorandum, as the action taken on Appellant’s ad-
judged sentence was ambiguous and incomplete. The convening authority sub-
sequently approved Appellant’s sentence, resulting in a new entry of judgment
and correcting the error Appellant raised.
The findings and sentence as entered are correct in law and fact, and no
error materially prejudicial to the substantial rights of Appellant occurred. Ar-
ticles 59(a) and 66(d), UCMJ,
10 U.S.C. §§ 859(a), 866(d), Manual for Courts-
Martial, United States (2019 ed.). Accordingly, the findings and sentence are
AFFIRMED.*
FOR THE COURT
CAROL K. JOYCE
Clerk of the Court
* We note that in addition to a correct, unredacted “Second Corrected Copy” of the entry
of judgment dated 21 September 2021, the record also contains a partially redacted
“Second Corrected Copy” with the same date. However, this partially redacted version
fails to redact the victim’s name at certain points in the Specification, and also employs
incorrect initials in place of the victim’s name at other points. We find these errors in
the partially redacted version do not impair our ability to review and affirm the find-
ings and sentence.
