PER CURIAM:
   After careful consideration of the record and the pleadings, we find that
the sole matter raised by the appellant pursuant to United States v.
Grostefon, 12 M.J. 431 (C.M.A. 1982), lacks merit and requires neither fur-
ther discussion nor relief. United States v. Matias, 25 M.J. 356, (C.M.A.
        United States v. Hernandez-Ramirez, NMCCA No. 201800364

1987). The approved findings and sentence are correct in law and fact and no
error materially prejudicial to appellant’s substantial rights occurred. Arti-
cles 59 and 66, UCMJ, 10 U.S.C. §§ 589, 866.
  The findings and sentence as approved by the convening authority are
AFFIRMED.

                               FOR THE COURT:

                               RODGER A. DREW, JR.
                               Clerk of Court
