_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPRS recommends denial. DPPRS states that the applicant received a
Letter of Reprimand for failure to properly sign out on leave, an Article
15 for being Absent Without Leave (AWOL) from 1 - 5 Jun 72, an Article 15
for damage to Government property and failure to go, and an Article 15 for
being AWOL from 25 - 28 Nov 72. He was administratively discharged on 26
Dec 72 under the provisions of AFR 39-12 and received a general discharge.
The discharge was consistent with the procedural and substantive
requirements of the discharge regulation and was within the discretion of
the discharge authority. The applicant did not submit any new evidence or
identify any errors or injustices that occurred in the discharge
processing. The DPPRS evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 8 Nov
02 for review and comment within 30 days. As of this date, this office has
received no response.
_________________________________________________________________
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 see no evidence of an error in this
case and after a thorough review of the evidence of record, we do not
believe he has been the victim on an injustice. Therefore, we agree with
the opinion and recommendation of the Air Force office of primary
responsibility and adopt their rationale as the basis for our conclusion
that the applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice. In
the absence of 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.
