STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted into the Regular Air Force on 11 Jul 80.
The applicants commander recommended him for discharge under
the provisions of AFR 39-10, paragraph 5-46. The specific
reasons for this action was for being late in paying
recreational supply rental fees, failing to wear the seat belt,
having his driving privileges suspended, being late to work,
improperly using a tool bag and checklist, and rendering checks
with insufficient funds. After a legal review, the case was
found to be legally sufficient. The applicant acknowledged
receipt of the discharge action and waived his right to submit
statements in his behalf. He received a general discharge on 22
Jul 83 after serving 3 years and 12 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. Based upon the
presumption of regularity in the conduct of governmental affairs
and without evidence to the contrary, we must assume that the
applicant's discharge was proper and in compliance with
appropriate directives. In the interest of justice, we
considered upgrading the discharge based on clemency; however,
there was no evidence submitted to compel us to recommend
granting the relief sought on that basis. Therefore, in the
absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis upon which
to recommend granting the relief sought.
________________________________________________________________
_
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.
