AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE 

CASE NUMBhK 

FD-2U05-00363 

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

The applicant was offered a personal appearance before the Discharge Revicw 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: 

Issue I .   The applicant cited his desire to reenlist to complete his obligation.  The DRB noted the applicant's 
desire but concluded that his desire standing alone was not a matter of inequity or inlpropriety which would 
warrant an upgrade 

Issue 2.  Applicant suggested that his miscoilduct was a result of his youth, immaturity and  irresponsibility. 
The records indicated the applicant received an Article  15, two Letters of Reprimand, a Letter of Counseling, 
a Memorandum for Record, and five AAFES letters for misconduct.  These administrative actions were as a 
result of numerous infractions for failing to pay debts, writing bad checks, failure to obey a direct order and 
making false statements The DRB opined that through these administrative actions, the applicant had ample 
opportunities to change his negative behavior.  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. 

Issue 3.  The DRB was pleased to see that the applicant was doing well.  However, no inequity or 
impropriety in his discharge was suggested or found in the course of the hearing.  The Board concluded the 
misconduct of the applicant appropriately characterized his term of service. 

CONCLUSIONS:  The Discharge Review Board concludes that the discharge was co~isistent 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.

1.  FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES. On  17 Aug  94, ~$Colj --,------- l Commander of the 
i be  involuntarily discharged 
10th Air  Support Operations Squadron, recommended  SrAi 
from the  United  States Air  Force  pursuant  to  AFR  39-10;pCiEiph  5-47d,  for  a  pattern  of 
misconduct  involving  the  failure  to  pay  just  debts.  Lt  Col  -- ----- ---: 
: also  recommended 
sr*;  - - - - - - - - - - - - 
benice be charhterized as general (under honorable conditions) and recommended 
against any fkther rehabilitative efforts in this case.

2.  EVIDENCE: 

- - - - - - - - - , 

---------. 

a.  E~dence for the Government.  SrA i ---------. 

:has received  an Article  15, two Letters of 
Reprimand, and two Letters of Counseling for failing to pay just  debts and/or issuing dishonored 
chccks. His misconduct began  over a year ago,  15 Jul 93, when  he received his first Letter of 
Counseling for writing five checks ?!-  gaccount in which there were insufficient funds to cover 
the  checks.  Subsequently,  SrA: . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _  _I : was  scheduled  for  an appointment  for  kancial 
i received his first Letter of 
management at Rhein Main AB, Germany.  On  14 Dec 93, s~A!--------- 
Reprimand  for  non-payment  of  debts  owed  to  the  Army  Gd'E'Force  Exchange  Service 
(AAFES) and the commissary, for dishonored checks .--------- 
and non-payment on his AAFES  Deferred 
i received an Article  1 5, Non-Judicial 
Payment Plan (DPP) account.  On  16 Mar 94,  SrAi 
Punishment for failing to pay just debts.  These "just debts" were once again .--------- 
in the form of checks 
i  had  already 
written on  an  account  that  did  not  have  sufficient funds.  Although  SrAi 
.--------- 
received a LOC, a LOR and an Article 15, he continued to flil to pay his debii:'~ii2 Jun 94, SrA 
i failed to obey a direct order to make a payment and/or obtain a receipt for payment on his 
L....-.-.. W E - D P P  account, which is documented by  a memo for record by  his flight NCOIC. When 
SrA i - -------- :was 
questioned by his supervisor, he evaded the issue by saying he could not obtain a 
receipt.  It wasn't until further inquiry by his supervisor that he finally admitted to not paying this 
debt and not having the money to do so.  On the same day, the first sergeant discovered that SrA 
, - - - - - - - - - - - 
i  Diners  Club account  was  delinquent and  had  been  delinquent for  approximately six 

-.-..-.-.. 

months.  When a payment was made, the check was returned for insufficient h d s .   SrA i---------i 
received a Letter of Reprimand for this incident. 

L..-.-....-a 

, 

b.  Evidence for the Beagondent.  After  consultation with  military  defense  counsel,  the 

respondent submitted statements in his own behalf  The respondent states the difficulties for his 

AMC-GUIBAI,  REACH FOR AMERICA 

financial situation have been beyond  his control.  His problems started when  he was  married in 
June 1993 and moved to Germany only one month later without his family.  Due to a family crisis 
involving his wife, he hrrd  to return to the United States.  In order to make the return trip, he had 
to  borrow  money  from the  Air  Force  Aid  Society to help  defray the  expenses  incurred.  The 
respondent contends the family crisis left his wife with emotional scars causing her  spending to 
get  out  of control.  By  the  time  he  was  able to control  her  spending,  his  debts were beyond 
control.  After returning to the United  States the respondent contends there were errors with his 
pay  and that he did not  receive the follow-up financial counseling he needed from his  superiors. 
The respondent feels he should receive an honorable discharge because these "hardships"  should 
not be considered "significant negative aspectsy' of his military career. 

In -my opinion, the evidence in the

standards of conduct.  Despite two ftnancial management seminars (one at Rhein Main, Germany

srA one

The e&'fili-h&atcs 

b.  The initiating commander, Lt C O ~  

3 has recommended against any further probation 
and rehabilitation in this -. 
the respondent has already received ample 
rehabilitative actions, financial assistance (Air Force Aid  Society) and professional counselings in 
an effort to correct his behavior.  These efforts have been continuously met with negative results, 
AFR 39-10, paragraph 7-2g, indicates that you,  the separation authority, may  offer probation and 
rehabilitation.  In this case,  in view of the respondent's record and  in  consideration to the many 
prior unsuccessful attempts at rehabilitation, I believe this is not an appropriate case to offer any 
additional probation and rehabilitation. 

, - - - - - - - - - , 

c.  SrA: 

:requests that  he receive an honorable discharge if the separation authority 
approves  hik~iih&e.  Paragraph  5-45d states that  the  service of  a  member  discharged  for 
misconduct  may  be  characterized  as  honorable  only  if  "the  member's  record  has  been  so 
srAi - - - - - - - - - - that 
-,  any  other  characterization  would  be  clearly  inappropriate." 
In  this  case, 
meritorious 
i service cannot be described as "meritorious." According to AFR 30- 10, paragraph 

1-1 8b, "[c]haracterization of service as general is warranted when significant negative aspects of 

------------ 

the airman's  conduct or perEormance of duty outweigh positive aspects of the airman's  mi itary 
record."  Given  the  significant  negative  aspects  of  his off-duty  conduct  in  this  enlistment, 
srAi- - - - - - - - - 

i deserves nothing better than a general (under honorable conditions) discharge.
