IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2004-01454
            INDEX CODE:  111.05

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her general (under honorable conditions discharge) be upgraded to  honorable
and her reenlistment eligibility (RE) code be changed.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant was separated from the Air Force  on  28  Apr  99,  under  the
provisions of AFI 36-3208  for  misconduct-minor  disciplinary  infractions,
with a general discharge.

The Air Force Discharge Review Board (AFDRB) denied applicant’s request  for
an upgrade of her general discharge to honorable on 22 Feb 00.

Her application was considered and denied by the Board  on  31 Aug 04.   For
an accounting of the facts and  circumstances  surrounding  the  applicant’s
initial request, and the rationale of the earlier  decision  by  the  Board,
see the Record of Proceedings at Exhibit E.

The applicant requests reconsideration and contends  that  she  has  matured
and would like to serve in the Reserves.  She has  worked  at  a  recruiting
station, completed a Bachelors Degree and is aware of individuals that  have
enlisted with worse backgrounds who have received waivers.

In support of the appeal, the applicant  provides  two  character  reference
letters.

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit F.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

In an earlier finding, we determined that there  was  insufficient  evidence
to warrant any corrective action regarding the applicant’s request that  her
general discharge be upgrade to honorable, and her RE code be  changed.   We
have reviewed the applicant’s most recent submission and find  the  evidence
provided insufficient to warrant a reversal of  our  previous  determination
in this case.  The applicant has not provided any evidence that her  service
characterization was improper or contrary to the prevailing  regulation,  or
that her RE code was erroneously assigned.  Further, because of the lack  of
documentation concerning her activities since leaving the  service,  we  are
not inclined to recommend upgrading her discharge based on clemency at  this
time.  In view of the foregoing, and in  the  absence  of  evidence  to  the
contrary, we find no compelling basis to act favorably  on  the  applicant’s
request for upgrade of her discharge and change of her RE code.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented  did  not  demonstrate
the existence of an 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.
_________________________________________________________________
