AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISI@NAL RATIONALE FD-2005-00004

  
 
 
 
  
  
  
  
   
  
 
 
  
  
  

GENERAL: The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharffe to honorable, change the reason and authority
for the discharge, and change the reenlistment code.

The applicant was offered a personal appearance before the§[Discharge Review Board (DRB) but declined to
exercise this nght.

The attached brief contains available pertinent data on the agplicant and the factors leading to the discharge.

FINDINGS: The Board grants partial relief. The discha§ge is upgraded to Honorable. The reason and
authority for discharge and the reenlistment code will not bafchanged.

 
   

  
 
  
  
 
 
 
 

The Board finds that neither the evidence of record nd that provided by applicant substantiates an
impropriety that would justify a change of discharge. Mlowever, based upon the record and evidence
provided by applicant, the Board finds the applicant’s reasorand authority for discharge inequitable.

ISSUE: Applicant does not contest her discharge; She stat@s that she feels that she is able to contribute her
expertise to our military and would like to rejoin. Sheffalso states that she lost her civilian job upon
returning from Desert Shield/Desert Storm. The majority [pf the applicant’s military records are missing.
From what the Board does have, it indicates the applicant sefved satisfactory for eight (8) years and then hurt
her back, as documented in the available medical records§ then missed her UTAs and was subsequently
demoted from SSgt to SrA on 15 Dec 92. The Board app§auds the applicant for her desire to reenter the
military, however, since she is currently 51 years of agefland only has eight good years for retirement
purposes which means she cannot obtain the remaining
reaching age 60, her reentry to the military is not possible.

    
  
 

to the applicant’s eight good years served, noting that she sighed up for six years and extended for 36 months
in order to deploy to Desert Shield/Desert Storm, that herfoverall characterization should be classified as
Honorable.

 
 
  
    
 

CONCLUSIONS: The Discharge Review Board concluges that the discharge was consistent with the
procedural and substantive requirements of the discharge gegulation and was within the discretion of the
discharge authority and that the applicant was provided full #dministrative due process.

However, in view of the foregoing findings, the Board]ffurther concludes that the overall quality of
apphcant’s service is more accurately reflected by an Honordble under the provisions of Title 10, USC 1553.
