APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
While attending Basic Military Training the applicant, serving in
the grade of airman basic (E-1), was diagnosed with adjustment
disorder with depressed mood during a mental health evaluation.
During the evaluation, the applicant self-reported he struggled
with symptoms of anger and depression since he was 17 years old.
On 13 June 2011, the applicant was notified of his commander’s
intent to recommend him for discharge from the Air Force with an
entry-level separation (Fraudulent Entry) for intentionally
concealing a prior service medical condition, which if revealed,
could have resulted in rejection of his enlistment. The
applicant acknowledged receipt of his commander’s intent and
waived his rights to consult counsel and to provide a statement
in his own behalf.
On 14 June 2011, the discharge authority approved the recommended
discharge under the provisions of Air Force Program Directive 36-
32 and Air Force Instructions 36-3208, Chapter 5, Section 5C,
Paragraph 5.15.
On 15 June 2011, the applicant was discharged with an entry level
separation with a separation code of “JDA” and a narrative reason
for separation of “Fraudulent Entry into Military Service.”
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOS recommends denial. DPSOS states that based on the
documentation on file in the master personnel records, 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. His
uncharacterized service is correct and in accordance with
Department of Defense and Air Force instructions.
DPSOS indicates the applicant did not submit any evidence or
identify any errors or injustices that occurred in the discharge
processing. He provided no facts warranting a change to his
separation code or narrative reason for separation.
The complete DPSOS 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 27 March 2012, 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 an error or an injustice. We took
notice of the applicant's complete submission in judging the
merits of the case; however, we agree with the opinion and
recommendation of the Air Force office of primary responsibility
and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion the
applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice.
Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no
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.
