INDEX CODE: 110.00
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His general discharge be upgraded to honorable.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
The reasons the applicant believes the records to be in error or
unjust and the evidence submitted in support of the appeal are at
Exhibit A.
No supporting documentation was submitted. The applicant’s complete
submission is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 16 July 1984 for a
period of 4 years. He received a General (Under Honorable Conditions)
discharge on 6 March 1987 under the provisions of AFR 39-10
(unsatisfactory performance). He had completed 2 years, 7 months and
21 days and was serving in the grade of airman first class (E-3) at
the time of discharge. He received an RE Code of 2B, which defined
means "Involuntarily separated under AFR 39-10 with a general
discharge or under other than honorable conditions (UOTHC) discharge.”
Applicant's discharge case file is not in his military personnel
records; therefore, the facts surrounding his separation from the Air
Force cannot be verified.
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application, extracted
from the applicant’s military records, are contained in the letter
prepared by the appropriate office of the Air Force at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
HQ AFPC/DPPRS recommends the application be denied. DPPRS stated that
the applicant was discharged for unsatisfactory performance, which is
shown in his performance reports. The applicant did not submit any
new evidence or identify any errors or injustices that occurred in the
discharge processing. Additionally, he provided no facts warranting
an upgrade of his discharge. The HQ AFPC/DPPRS evaluation is at
Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to applicant on 10
May 2002 for review and response. As of this date, no response has
been received by this office (Exhibit D).
_________________________________________________________________
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. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate
the existence of error or injustice. We took notice of the
applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of the case;
however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the Air Force
office and adopt their rationale as the basis for our conclusion that
the applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice.
Therefore, absent sufficient evidence to the contrary, we find no
compelling 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 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.
