MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE:  24 SEPTEMBER 2006


___________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His undesirable discharge be upgraded.

___________________________________________________________________

RESUME OF CASE:

On 26 May  2005,  the  AFBCMR  considered  and  denied  applicant’s
request  for  upgrade  of  his  undesirable  discharge.    For   an
accounting  of  the  facts  and   circumstances   surrounding   the
application, and the rationale  of  the  earlier  decision  by  the
Board, see the Record of Proceedings (ROP) at Exhibit H.

Subsequent  to  the  Board,  applicant  submitted  six  letters  of
character reference from acquaintances, his former  pastor,  and  a
former landlord.  His complete submission, with attachments, is  at
Exhibit I.

___________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  After careful consideration of the evidence of record  and  the
applicant’s most recent submission, we found no evidence  that  his
discharge was either erroneous or  unjust.   Applicant’s  discharge
had its basis in his frequent involvement of a discreditable nature
with civil and military authorities, as evidenced  by  his  illegal
operation  of  a  two-wheeled  vehicle,  incidents  of  drunk   and
disorderly conduct in  public  places,  communicating  threats  and
using provoking speech, and an assault  upon  another  airman.   We
have noted the letters  of  character  reference  provided  in  the
applicant’s behalf.  However, in view of the overall quality of the
applicant’s service, the events which precipitated  his  discharge,
and the contents of the FBI Report of  Investigation,  we  are  not
persuaded that an upgrade of the characterization of his  discharge
is warranted on the basis of clemency.  Based on the foregoing, and
in the absence of  persuasive  evidence  that  applicant’s  service
warranted a better characterization than the one  he  received,  we
are unpersuaded that a revision of  our  earlier  determination  is
warranted.

2.  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   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.
