AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

IN THE MATTER OF: 

DOCKET NO:  98- 02317 

COUNSEL:  NONE 
HEARING DESIRED:  NO 

FE. $,  2  ;.j$$ 

Applicant requests that his general  (under honorable conditions) 
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. Walter J.  Hosey, 
and  Mr.  Richard  A.  Peterson  considered  this  application  on 
10 February 1999,  in accordance with the provisions of Air  Force 
Instruction 36- 2603,  and the governing statute, 10 U.S.C.  1552.

The applicant, while serving in the grade of airman, was discharged fiom the Air Force 07 Jan 
82 under the provisions of AFM 39-12 (Unsuitability Apathy, Defective Attitude) with an under 
honorable conditions (general) discharge.  He served 01 year 11 months and 24 days total active 
service. 

Requested Action.  The applicant is requesting his discharge be upgraded to honorable. 

Basis for Request.  Applicant does not claim an injustice in his discharge. 

Facts.  On 02 Dec 8 1, applicant was notified by his commander that involuntary discharge 

action had been initiated against him with a view to effecting his discharge for defective attitude 
and progressive downward trend in duty performance.  Applicant had received two Article 15 
actions for failure to obey a lawful order on 21 Jan 81 which resulted in a reduction in grade, fine, 
and correctional custody.  He also received ATC Forms 18 for coming to work late, failure to 
complete work when having stated it was finished, and failure to keep filling work caught up.  An 
Evaluation Officer was duly appointed an interviewed the applicant and made a finding that 
member was unsuitable for fbrther military and recommended his discharge with a general 
discharge.  Applicant did not submitted a statement in his own behalf  The case was reviewed by 
the base legal office and found to legally sufficient to support discharge.  The discharge authority 
approved the recommendation for discharge on 05 Jan 82 and directed that the applicant be 
hrnished a general discharge certificate without probation. 

Discussion.  This case has been 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.
