RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-02128 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: YES 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His under other than honorable conditions (UOTHC) discharge be 
upgraded to honorable. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He had six years of outstanding service and feels his discharge 
was unjust. His problems began the six months prior to his 
discharge. His separation from his wife and children caused him 
to make some bad choices. His discharge was based on an isolated 
incident. 

 

No supporting documentation was submitted. 

 

The applicant's complete submission is at Exhibit A. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

On 11 Jul 85, the applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force. 
On 9 Sep 88, his commander notified him that he was recommending 
his separation from the Air Force under the provisions of AFR 39-
10, Administrative Separation of Airman. The specific reasons 
for the action was conduct prejudicial to good order and 
discipline wherein the applicant wrongfully used marijuana, 
operated a vehicle under the influence of alcohol, assaulted 
another airman, failure to go and public intoxication. On 11 Oct 
88, he received an under other than honorable conditions 
discharge after serving 3 years, 8 months and 13 days on active 
duty. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 


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 affect 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. We note the 
applicant has not submitted documentation pertaining to his post-
service activities; therefore, we do not find it in the interest 
of justice to exercise clemency in this case. However, should he 
provide information documenting his post-service activities, we 
may be inclined to reconsider his request based on clemency. 
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. 

 

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 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.

    On 20 Jan 88, the discharge authority approved the separation and directed a general discharge without probation and rehabilitation. Based on the available evidence of record, it appears the discharge was consistent with the substantive requirements of the discharge regulation and within the commander’s discretionary authority. We considered upgrading the discharge based on clemency; however, we do not find the evidence presented is sufficient to compel us to recommend the relief sought on...
