AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE | ¢p3002.0099

     

GENERAL: The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge to honorable and for a change in the

and the reason and authority for discharge.

    
  

The applicant’s case was considered by the Discharge Review Board (DRB), at Andrews AFB
March 20, 2003. The applicant appeared before the DRB but did not have counsel.

     
   
 
  
    
  
  
  
  
   
 

    
  

The attached brief contains available pertinent data on the applicant and the factors leading to the @scharge.

FINDINGS: The DRB denies the requested relief.

 
   
 

The DRB finds that the evidence of record and that provided by the applicant does not substantiatqjan
inequity or an impropriety that would justify an upgrade of the discharge and a change to the RE Gbde and
reason and authority for the discharge.

  
     
 
 
 
 

ISSUES: The applicant was discharged with a general service characterization from the Air Force for
misconduct or, more specifically, minor disciplinary infractions. He had three records of fAdividual
counseling, all for failure to go; two AF Forms 1048 (traffic ticket) for speeding on base; t¥fo verbal
counselings, one for failure to go and the other for failure to pay a just debt; two letters of reprimafid, one of
which concerned theft of government property and the other involved intentionally mishangfling and
damaging full mobility bags while loading an aircraft during an exercise; an Article 15 for uffing false
pretenses to get into the base club without paying the entrance fee; and four correctional cust@ly forms
evidencing numerous failures to conform to the rules and requirements of correctional custdHy. The
applicant complained because he was scparated after completing the entire 30-day correctional custody
period and because he felt the discharge was too harsh a sanction for the minor misconduct infivhich he
engaged. He also alleged racial discrimination and a personality conflict with his first serlfe
supervisor.

 
  
 
 

      
  

  
 

CONCLUSIONS: The DRB concludes that the discharge was consistent with the substa
procedural requirements of the discharge regulation and was not an abuse of discretion by the ff
authority.

    
  
 

  

for his other misconduct—the more serious incidents he either minimized his involvement
committing the misconduct. His attempt to deflect responsibility for his conduct was marked by |
that was generally inconsistent, improbable, and/or incredible.

 
   
   

For example, he initially claimed that his attempt to avoid paying the entrance fee for the club wg nothing
more than a joke and that he intended to pay the fee. He then noted that he had not intended to pa
it was simply bad judgment on his part. He then attempted to explain that he is often allowe
without paying. However, when questioned more closely about the incident and his claim that he
not required to pay, he related a set of circumstances the DRB found implausible. As for t
government property, he denied any intention to take the items. He averred they were “free isghe” items
that could be used for any purpose and did not have to be returned. The DRB was not convincfid by this
claim since such items are usually reserved for official use only and must be returned for propeg{disposal.
His explanation for keeping these items in a locked cubbyhole while he was deployed als
disingenuous. He claimed he intended to throw away some of the items because they were brok
inexplicably kept them for several weeks, locked them up while he was deployed, and never did q scard the
broken items. ‘The DRB was also perplexed by ms failure to secure any of his Valuables

 
  
     
   
   

 
 
   
  
 
  
  
  

baggage-handling incident, he tried to minimize his conduct by making it sound like nothing mae than an
accident. He attempted to persuade the DRB he simply missed when he tossed one bag to anothdf baggage
handler. His description of the events differed so much from the version set forth in the file Rat it was
impossible to reconcile the two versions. Presuming regularity, the DRB credited the version cagtained in
the file. Finally, although the applicant generally admitted his correctional custody deling
attempted to minimize his participation and motives in an effort to give the impression the cc
custody monitors simply overreacted to his behavior. The DRB was unconvinced by his interpret@fion.

At points during the hearing, the applicant claimed he was the victim of racial discrimination. Affhough he
did not raise the issue himself (questions by board members brought the issue to light), he prgvided no
evidence of discrimination and could not explain why he perceived such mistreatment. The DRE
credible evidence of discrimination in this case. Nor did the DRB find any evidence of impro
based on a personality conflict.

The applicant also claimed that the action was too harsh, unfair, and unwarranted since he
correctional custody. However, a careful review of the documents revealed that the applicant wa
a correctional custody failure. The applicant’s record substantiated that determination.

Given the nature and frequency of the applicant’s misconduct, the command’s decision to dis
applicant with a general service characterization was appropriate.

The DRB denies the requested relief.

Tam a three and a half-year Air Force veteran. I am originally from New Orleans,
LA. After my separation from the Air Force, I was employed by Swift Transportation
Trucking Company and am currently employed by Tulane University. I began working
for Tulane with the intent of attending the college, an opportunity I did not get in the
military. I am writing to correct my separation by general discharge under honorable
conditions to an honorable discharge so that ] may acquire my GJ Bill and continue with
my mission in life.

My current duty assignment was with the 81" Training Wing, 81° Supply
Squadron, Keesler AFB, MS. On 27 February 1999, defraud aaa
employee at the Vandenburg Community Center, by wrongfully walking past him
without paying the $3.00 entrance fee. First of all I feel this discharge was an extremely
severe punishment for one single minor offense. As you can clearly see, this $3.00
miscue at the club is the only infraction of Article 15 I committed. I reported to
Correctional Custody and completed my thirty-day sentence. Now, after I have
completed the program, I am being unceremoniously and suddenly discharged from the
Air Force. The narrative reason for my discharge was misconduct, which I feel is an
error or injustice in simple, direct terms. I have not had any opportunity to present any
statement of defense to my commanding officer. [am being denied my constitutional
rights,

I contend that the decision to discharge me from the United States Air Force was
altogether unjust, unfair, and is a direct violation of my constitutional rights. I intend to
irrefutably prove that I was clearly and totally denied my constitutional right of due
process. The record will show that since entering the Air Force in November 1995, I
have faithfully carries out my assigned duties with distinction, pride, and honor. I came
into the military at the age of 18. Again, I did initially make some mistakes while
adjusting to the military lifestyle. [ have also made some great strides and lasting
contributions to my unit’s effective mission accomplishment.
According to Air Force directives, CC is an avenue used by commanders to rehabilitate
young airmen who still have the potential to continue in valued service to their country.
It is intended to reiterate the Air Force core values, of Integrity, Service before self, and
Excellence in all we do. While in CC I was visited by my commander and first sergeant
every week, They told me that I was doing well and if I keep up the good work, I will be
returned to my workcenter to continue my career. The daily curriculum and routine was
arduous and challenging. I did make some mistakes, however I did complete my
sentence as opposed to other servicemen who were assigned to CC during my stay that
were thrown out of the program and prepared for immediate discharge.

Suddenly, after my completion of the CC program I am now being recommended for
discharge. I have not talked to my commander about this. ] was not given any chance to
refute any of the allegations or accusations levied against me. If 1 was doing so terribly
bad, and was incompatible, then why didn’t my commanding officer tell me so? Better
yet, why wasn’t I removed from the program and discharged a long time ago just like
others? Where is the justice in all of this? Admittedly, the image that the CC staff has
portrayed of me is not at all flattering. They have depicted me as a lazy, dishonest, and
worthless airmen. However, I must remind you that every airman sent to CC obviously
has had some problems. The whole purpose of this program is “rehabilitate” wayward
troops. I completed the program. I was given 30 days, I completed 30 days! How can I
be judged on what occurred in CC after I have completed the program? It’s tantamount
to judging a soldier for the mistakes he made during basic military training and then
using it to prosecute him after he graduates. No matter how many mistakes the troop has
made, the mere fact that he successfully graduates indicates to all that he’s qualified for
further service.

Attached to this letter are several statements and letters of appreciation that will directly
refute the insidious and improper image portrayed by the CC staff. I have been
recognized on several occasions for my outstanding efforts and service. I want to
continue my Air Force career. As you may well know, the military in general, and the
Air Force in particular are having a very hard time maintaining proper strength levels.
People are not staying in for various reason...i.e. the good economy, pursuing education,
fast paced and frequent TDYs, and for many other reasons. I willingly volunteered to go
to Saudi Arabia where I served faithfully and with distinction. I want to stay in the
United States Air Force and believe I have earned the right to do so.

They cannot touch me on my job performance. I completed my technical job-
proficiency upgrade training ahead of time and as you can see by the many letters sent in
my behalf, I have made many positive impressions on several NCOs and officers alike.
[p2c02~- po 77

I need your help. I am not a criminal. Should I be subjected to this type of injustice
simply because of an ill-advised and misguided $3.00 prank? I know of your service and
commitment to the armed services and I trust in your love and devotion to constitutional
principles. I am anxiously awaiting your response and effective intervention into this:

matter.
