PER CURIAM:

              Richard       Joseph    Ramsey      appeals      the   district    court’s

order   denying       his     petition      for   writ    of    mandamus.        We    have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.                         Accordingly,

we   affirm     for     the       reasons    stated      by    the    district     court.

Ramsey v. Secretary of the Army, No. 5:08-hc-02088-D (E.D.N.C.

Sept. 23, 2008).             We dispense with oral argument because the

facts   and    legal    contentions         are    adequately        presented    in    the

materials     before        the    court    and   argument      would    not     aid   the

decisional process.

                                                                                 AFFIRMED
