APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 3
November 1998, for review and response within thirty days. As of this
date, no response has been received by this office.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing law or
regulations.
2. The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the interest
of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.
3. We find no impropriety in the characterization of the applicants
discharge. It appears that responsible officials applied appropriate
standards in effecting the separation, and we do not find persuasive
evidence that pertinent regulations were violated or that the applicant was
not afforded all the rights to which entitled at the time of discharge. We
conclude therefore, that the discharge proceedings were proper in
characterization of the discharge and was appropriate to the existing
circumstances. In view of the above, we agree with the AFDRB’s rationale
as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim
of an error or injustice. Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the
contrary we find no basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this
application.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not demonstrate
the existence of probable material error or injustice; that the application
was denied without a personal appearance; and that the application will
only be reconsidered upon the submission of newly discovered relevant
evidence not considered with this application.
