AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
IN THE MATTER 0-F:
DOCKET NUMBER: 98-01985
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
Applicant requests that his general discharge be upgraded to
honorable. Applicant's submission is at Exhibit A.
The appropriate Air Force office evaluated applicant's request
and provided an advisory opinion to the Board recommending the
application be denied (Exhibit C). The advisory opinion was
forwarded to the applicant for review and response (Exhibit D).
As of this date, no response has been received by this office.
After careful consideration of applicant's request and the
available evidence of record, we find insufficient evidence of
error or injustice to warrant corrective action. The facts and
opinions stated in the advisory opinion appear to be based on the
evidence of record and have not been rebutted by applicant@.
Absent persuasive evidence applicant was denied rights to which
entitled, appropriate regulations were not followed, or
appropriate standards were not applied, we find no basis to
disturb the existing record.
Accordingly, applicant's request is denied.
The Board staff is directed to inform applicant of this decision.
Applicant should also be informed that this decision is final and
will only be reconsidered upon the presentation of new relevant
evidence which was not reasonably available at the time the
application was filed.
Members of the Board Mr. Vaughn E. Schlunz, Mr. Edward C.
Koenig, 11, and Mr. Kenneth L. Reinertson, considered this
application on 17 December 1998, in accordance with the
provisions of Air Force Instruction 36-2603, and the governing
statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.

550 C Street West Ste 11
Randolph AFB TX 78 150-47 13
SUBJECT: Application for Correction of Military Recor
The applicant, while serving in the grade of airman first class, was discharged from the Air
Force 16 Feb 83 under the provisions of AFM 39-10 (Msconduct-Pattern of Minor Disciplinary
Infiactions) with an under honorable conditions (general) discharge. He served 01 year 06
months and 14 days total active service.
Reauested Action. Applicant is requesting an upgrade of his discharge to honorable.
Basis for Request. Applicant claims it is doing him more harm than good to have been
discharge with a general discharge when seeking employment. He does not claim an injustice in
his discharge, he only appeals for an upgrade to honorable because he states he cannot lie about
his military service in applications for employment.
,
Facts. On 16 Feb 83, applicant was notified by his commander that involuntary discharge
action had been initiated against him for his minor disciplinary infi-actions. The commander
indicated applicant had been given a Letter of Reprimand for attempting to alter or change the
results of a commander directed urinalysis, he was counseled on a SAC Form 845 for failure to
go, counseled on a a SAC Form 845 for insufficient fbnds check, counseled the third time on a
15AF Form 182 for financial irresponsibility and finally, on 08 Dec 82, he was given a commande&
directed urinalysis. Test results indicated a positive for cocaine. Military counsel was appointed
to assist the applicant and he refbsed to submit statements in his own behalf. Applicant did
cooperate with the OS1 in their investigation and in addition, he received death threats for his
cooperation with the OSI. The case was reviewed by the base legal office and was found to be
legally sufficient to support discharge. The discharge authority approved the recommendation for
discharge on 16 Feb 83 and directed that the applicant be hrnished a general discharge certificate
without probation and rehabilitation.
Discussion. This case has beeh reviewed for separation processing and there are no errors or
irregularities causing an injustice to the applicant. The discharge complies with directives in effect
at the time of his discharge. The records indicate member’s military service was reviewed and
appropriate action was taken.
Recommendation. Applicant did not identi@ any specific errors in the discharge processing nor
provide facts which warrant an upgrade of the discharge he received. Accordingly, we
recommend applicant’s request be denied. He has not filed a timely request.
