FD-2005-00221
GENERAL: The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge 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 right.
The attached brief contains available pertinent data on the applicant and the factors leading to the discharge.
FINDINGS: Upgrade of discharge, change of reason and authority for discharge, and change of
reenlistment code are denied.
The Board finds that neither the evidence of record nor that provided by the applicant substantiates an
inequity or impropriety that would justify a change of discharge.
ISSUE: Applicant contends discharge was inequitable because it was too harsh. The records indicated the
applicant received a General Discharge for Misconduct, specifically, Drug Abuse. The Board concluded the
misconduct was a significant departure from conduct expected of all military members. The characterization
of the discharge received by the applicant was found to be appropriate. Applicant states that his discharge
did not take into account the good things he did while in the service. The DRB took note of the applicant's
duty performance as documented by his performance reports, letters of recommendation and other
accomplishments. They found the seriousness of the willful misconduct offset any positive aspects of the
applicant's duty performance. The Board concluded the discharge was appropriate for the reasons which
were the basis for this case.
CONCLUSIONS: The Discharge Review Board concludes that the discharge was consistent with the
procedural and substantive requirements of the discharge regulation and was within the discretion of the
discharge authority and that the applicant was provided full administrative due process.
In view of the foregoing findings the Board further concludes that there exists no legal or equitable basis for
upgrade of discharge, thus the applicant's discharge should not be changed.
