Before

Appellate Military Judges
This opinion is issued as an unpublished opinion and, as such, does not serve as precedent
under AFCCA Rule of Practice and Procedure 18.4.
PER CURIAM:
The approved findings and sentence are correct in law and fact, and no error
materially prejudicial to the substantial rights of the appellant occurred. Article 66(c),
UCMJ, 10 U.S.C. § 866(c); United States v. Reed, 54 M.J. 37, 41 (C.A.A.F. 2000).

The court notes that the court-martial order (CMO), dated 5 November 2014, does not list the convening
authority’s deferment of mandatory forfeitures from 7 August 2014 until action. The court orders the promulgation
of a corrected CMO. See Air Force instruction 51-201, Administration of Military Justice, ¶ 9.29.1.3 and figure
9.12 (6 June 2013).
Accordingly, the approved findings and sentence are AFFIRMED.
