PER CURIAM:
After careful consideration of the record, submitted without assignment of
error, we have determined that the approved findings and sentence are cor-
United States v. Mahmoud, NMCCA No. 201900189
rect 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.
However, we note that the Entry of Judgment does not accurately reflect
the disposition of the charges. Although we find no prejudice, Appellant 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.
