Opinion

Opinion of the Court

Darden, Judge:

Absent supplementing evidence, the president’s pro forma inquiry does not satisfy us of the providency of appellant’s plea of guilty to the absences here charged. ■ Cf. United States v Care, 18 USCMA 535, 40 CMR 247. The decision of the board of review is reversed and the record of trial is returned to the Judge Advocate General of the Navy. A rehearing may be ordered.

Chief Judge Quinn and Judge Ferguson concur.
