She graduated from the Security Forces Academy in March 2000.   She  has  no
documents to prove that she graduated, only her badge.

submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

Applicant contracted her initial enlistment in the Regular Air Force  on  13
Oct 99 in the grade of airman  basic.   She  entered  into  Security  Forces
technical training on 29 Nov 99.  On 11 May 00,  she  was  notified  by  her
commander that he was recommending she be  discharged  from  the  Air  Force
under the provisions of AFI 36-3208,  Administrative  Separation  of  Airmen
(Homosexual Acts).  The  basis  for  his  recommendation  was  an  Inspector
General (IG) investigation determined that at various times between  October
1999 and January 2000, she engaged in homosexual conduct.   A  copy  of  the
investigative report is appended at Exhibit  F.   She  was  advised  of  her
rights  in  this  matter  and  after  consulting  counsel,  she  offered   a
conditional waiver of her rights contingent upon receipt of no less than  an
honorable discharge.  The base staff judge advocate found her  case  legally
sufficient and  recommended  acceptance  of  the  conditional  waiver.   The
discharge authority  approved  her  separation  and  directed  that  she  be
discharged   with   an   honorable   discharge   without    probation    and
rehabilitation.  She was discharged on 17 Aug 00.  She served 10 months  and
5 days on active duty.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPPWB recommends denial.  DPPPWB states individuals  enlisting  for  a
period of six  years  are  promoted  upon  completion  of  either  technical
training or 20 weeks of technical  training,  whichever  occurs  first,  and
recommended for promotion by the immediate commander.  No documentation  was
found to verify she completed the  Security  Specialist  course.   There  is
also  no  written  recommendation  from  her  commander  for  promotion   or
promotion  order  indicating  advancement  to  the  grade  of  A1C.   DPPPWB
therefore assumes she  was  not  recommended  for  promotion  based  on  the
findings  of  her  investigation  and  subsequent  discharge.   The   DPPPWB
evaluation is at Exhibit C.

AFPC/DPPRS recommends denial.  DPPRS states that the  applicant's  discharge
was consistent with the  procedural  and  substantive  requirements  of  the
discharge  regulation  and  was  within  the  discretion  of  the  discharge
authority.  She did not submit any new evidence or identify  any  errors  in
the discharge processing.  The DPPRS evaluation is at Exhibit D.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the  applicant  on  18
Mar 05 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 timely filed.

3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been  presented  to  demonstrate  the
existence of error or  injustice  that  would  warrant  an  upgrade  to  her
narrative  reason  for  separation.   We  took  notice  of  the  applicant's
complete submission in judging  the  merits  of  the  case;  however,  after
thoroughly reviewing the evidence of record we find no evidence of an  error
in this case and are not persuaded that  she  has  been  the  victim  of  an
injustice.  With respect to her request that her  records  be  corrected  to
show she completed Security Forces training  and  she  be  promoted  to  the
grade of E-3, we find no evidence, other than her own assertions,  that  she
completed  Security  Forces   training   and   satisfied   her   contractual
requirements for promotion to the grade of E-3.  Therefore,  we  agree  with
the opinions and  recommendations  of  the  Air  Force  offices  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.
