                               SUMMARY DISPOSITION
                              ----------------------------------

KRAUSS, Judge:

       A military judge sitting as a special court-martial convicted appellant,
pursuant to his pleas, of two specifications of failure to repair; one specification of
going from his appointed place of duty; three specifications of absence without
leave; four specifications of missing movement by design; and one specification of
willful disobedience of a superior commissioned officer in violation of Articles 86,
87, and 90, Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. §§ 886, 887, and 890 (2006)
[hereinafter UCMJ]. The military judge sentenced appellant to a bad-conduct
discharge, confinement for nine months, and forfeiture of $994.00 pay per month for
nine months. The convening authority approved the adjudged sentence and credited
appellant with 141 days confinement against the sentence to confinement.

      This case is before the court for review under Article 66, UCMJ . Appellant
assigns four errors, one of which warrants relief.

       In Specification 2 of Charge II, appellant was charged with missing the
movement of his unit, Alpha Company. However, the providence inquiry established
that he missed the movement of Charlie Company, or at the very least, a “follow-on
company” different and distinct from Alpha Company. The judge never resolved
this inconsistency or obtained appellant’s agreement to such a change in the
specification. See United States v. Garcia, 44 M.J. 496, 498 (C.A.A.F. 1996) (citing
UCMJ art. 45(a); Rule for Courts-Martial [hereinafter R.C.M.] 910(h)(2));
R.C.M. 603. Therefore, we find a substantial basis in law and fact to reject the plea.
See United States v. Inabinette, 66 M.J. 320, 321-22 (C.A.A.F. 2008); Manual for
Courts-Martial, United States (2008 ed.), pt IV, ¶ 11.c.(2)(a).

       The finding of guilty of Specification 2 of Charge II is set aside and
dismissed. The remaining findings of guilty are AFFIRMED. Reassessing the
sentence on the basis of the error noted, the entire record, and applying the
principles of United States v. Sales, 22 M.J. 305, 308 (C.M.A. 1986) and the factors
set forth in United States v. Winckelmann, 73 M.J. 11, 15-16 (C.A.A.F. 2013), the
sentence is AFFIRMED. All rights, privileges, and property, of which appellant has
been deprived by virtue of that portion of the findings set aside by this decision, are
ordered restored.

      Senior Judge LIND and Judge BORGERDING concur.
