United States v. Frazier

Opinion of the Court

Darden, Judge:

Convicted of several offenses on his plea of guilty, the accused petitioned for review of whether his conviction of forgery under Charge II, specification 1, is valid in light of the Supreme Court’s decision in O’Callahan v Parker, 395 US 258, 23 L Ed 2d 291, 89 S Ct 1683 (1969). Because nothing in that opinion suggests that service-connection cannot be judged on the basis of whether the acts constituting the offense also establish service-connection, we look to the pertinent facts. Cf. United States v Morisseau, 19 USCMA 17, 41 CMR 17.
