PER CURIAM:
After careful consideration of the record, submitted without assignment of
error, we have determined that the findings and sentence are correct in law
and fact and that no error materially prejudicial to Appellant’s substantial
rights occurred. Articles 59 and 66, UCMJ, 10 U.S.C. §§ 859, 866.
United States v. Addis, NMCCA No. 201900224
However, we note that Entry of Judgment fails to reflect the not guilty
finding to certain language (“he was apprehended”) excepted from the guilty
finding to Specification 2 of Charge I. 1 Although we find no prejudice, Appel-
lant is entitled to have court-martial records that correctly reflect the content
of his proceeding. United States v. Crumpley, 49 M.J. 538, 539 (N-M. Ct.
Crim. App. 1998). In accordance with Rule for Courts-Martial 1111(c)(2),
Manual for Courts-Martial, United States (2019 ed.), we modify the Entry of
Judgment and direct that it be included in the record.
The findings and sentence are AFFIRMED.
FOR THE COURT:

Clerk of Court
1 The Entry of Judgment does note that the language “he was apprehended” was
excepted from the guilty finding to Specification 2 of Charge I but fails to reflect the
disposition of this excepted language – a not guilty finding vice some other disposi-
tion, e.g., withdrawal, dismissal, etc.
