APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His general discharge be upgraded to honorable.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His discharge was based on bad credit and debts incurred by his spouse.   He
was a dedicated airman and feels his discharge should be upgraded.

In support of this application, the applicant submits a copy of his DD  Form
293, Application for the Review of Discharge from the Armed  Forces  of  the
United States.

The applicant's complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 6 Apr 84, the applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force.

On 11 Apr 86, his commander  notified  him  that  he  was  recommending  his
separation from the Air Force under the provisions of Air  Force  Regulation
39-10,  Administrative  Separation   of   Airmen,   for   Misconduct-Pattern
Discreditable Involvement with Military or Civil Authorities.   The  reasons
for his actions were as follows:

      1.  On 22 and 25 Jun 84, the applicant wrote two worthless  checks  to
the Noncommissioned Officers (NCO) Club.  For this offense, he was  verbally
counseled.

      2.  On 26  Jul  84,  the  applicant  assaulted  his  wife.   For  this
offense, he received an Article 15.

      3.  On 2 and 4 Jan 86, he wrote  four  worthless  checks  to  the  NCO
Club.  For this offense, he received a Letter of Reprimand (LOR).

      4.  Between 13 Feb and 2 Mar 86, the applicant wrote worthless  checks
to on-base establishments.  For these offenses, he received an Article 15.

A review of the discharge case file by the Staff Judge  Advocate  was  found
legally sufficient.  On 5 May  86,  the  discharge  authority  approved  the
applicant’s  general  (under   honorable   conditions)   discharge   without
probation and rehabilitation.  He was discharged on 8 May 86, and  served  4
years, 11 months and 5 days on active duty.

In response to the Board’s request, the FBI indicated they  were  unable  to
identify with an arrest record pertaining to the applicant on the  basis  of
information furnished.

_________________________________________________________________

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.   After  careful  consideration  of  the
available evidence, we found no indication that the actions taken to  effect
his discharge were improper or contrary to the provisions of  the  governing
regulations in effect at the time, or that the  actions  taken  against  the
applicant were based on factors  other  than  his  own  misconduct.   Having
found no error or injustice with regard to the actions that  occurred  while
the applicant was a military member, we conclude that  no  basis  exists  to
grant favorable action on his request.

_________________________________________________________________

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.
