APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

requirements.

Applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant enlisted into the Regular Air Force on 29  August  1972.
On 26 April 1973, his commander notified him that he was  recommending
he be discharged.  The basis for the action was that on 1 March  1973,
he was diagnosed with a character and behavior disorder best described
as passive-aggressive personality; on  2 April  1973,  he  received  a
Letter of Reprimand for failure to maintain his room to the  standards
of cleanliness and on 6 April 1973, he  received  an  Article  15  for
dereliction in the performance of his duties and  being  disrespectful
in  language  toward  his   superior   noncommissioned   officer.   He
acknowledged receipt of the notification  of  discharge  on  26  April
1973.  The discharge authority approved the  separation  and  directed
that  applicant  be  discharged  with  a  general   (under   honorable
conditions) discharge without probation and rehabilitation.

Applicant was discharged on 27 April 1973, under the provisions of AFM
39-12,  Separation  for  Unsuitability,  Misconduct,  Resignation,  or
Request for Discharge for the Good of the Service and  Procedures  for
the  Rehabilitation  Program  (unsuitability-character  and   behavior
disorder-individual  evaluation),  with  a  general  (under  honorable
conditions) discharge.  He served a total of 7 months and 29  days  of
active duty service.

Pursuant to the Board's request, the Federal Bureau of  Investigation,
Clarksburg, WV, provided a copy of an Investigation Report  pertaining
to the applicant, which is at Exhibit E.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPRS recommends denial.  Based on the documentation on  file  in
the master personnel records, the discharge was  consistent  with  the
procedural and substantive requirements of the  discharge  regulation.
The discharge 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.  He  provided
no other facts warranting an upgrade of his discharge.

The AFPC/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
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 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 opinions  and  recommendation  of  the  Air
Force office of primary responsibility and adopt its 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 compelling basis to recommend granting the relief
sought in this application.

4.  The applicant's case is adequately documented and it has not  been
shown  that  a  personal  appearance  with  or  without  counsel  will
materially  add  to  our  understanding  of  the  issue(s)   involved.
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably considered.

_________________________________________________________________

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.
