CASE NUMBER

   

FD-2005-00245.

  
 

GENERAL: The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge to honorable.

 
 

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 is 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 an Under Other Than Honorable Conditions (UOTHC) Discharge for Misconduct,
specifically for Commission of a Serious Offense — Theft. The discharge documents are missing from the
record and based on the presumption of regularity, the request is denied. 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. If he can provide additional
documented information to substantiate an issue, the applicant should consider exercising his right to make a
personal appearance before the Board. If he should choose to exercise his right to a personal appearance
hearing, the applicant should be prepared to provide the DRB with factual evidence of the inequity and any
exemplary post-service accomplishments as well as any contributions to the community.

      
      
     
 
      
     
     
     
 

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.

    The records indicated the applicant received an Article 15 for being disrespectful toward a TSgt on two separate occasions and for failure to go. The Commander could have used adjustment disorder as a narrative reason for discharge, but this would have resulted in the applicant having “Personality Disorder” on his DD Form 214 (not “medical” as the applicant desired).
