                                 Appellate Military Judges

                                   UPON FURTHER REVIEW

                   This opinion is subject to editorial correction before final release.

PER CURIAM:

       This case is before our Court for further review because the original action and
court-martial order (CMO) were erroneous. United States v. Watts, ACM S32146
(A.F. Ct. Crim. App. 17 June 2014) (unpub. op.). This Court returned the case to The
Judge Advocate General for remand to the convening authority to withdraw the action
and substitute a corrected action and CMO. On 26 June 2014, the convening authority
withdrew the erroneous action in accordance with our decision and issued a corrected
action. A corrected CMO followed.
       The approved findings and sentence are correct in law and fact, and no error
materially prejudicial to the substantial rights of the appellant occurred. Articles 59(a)
and 66(c), UCMJ, 10 U.S.C. §§ 859(a), 866(c). Accordingly, the findings and sentence
are

                                      AFFIRMED.

             FOR THE COURT
