AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE 

CASE NUMBER 

FD-2006-00316 

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

The applicant was offered a personal appearance before the Discharge Review Board (DRR) but dcclincd 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 the applicant submitted no issues contesting the equity or propriety of the discharge, and 
after a thorough review of the record, the Board was unable to identify any that would justify  a change of 
discharge. 

ISSUE: 

The applicant submitted no issues and requested that the review be completed based on the available service 
record.  The Roard reviewed the entire record and found no evidence of impropriety or inequity in this case 
on which to base an upgrade of discharge.  The records indicated applicant had received three Articles 15, 
two Vacations'  and a Letter of Reprimand for misconduct.  The applicant's  first Article  15 was for having 
sexual intercourse with a married man.  She was punished with a suspended reduction in grade to Airnlan 
First Class, forfeiture of $400.00 pay for two months, and a reprimand.  The applicant received a Vacation 
action of the suspended reduction in grade for causing damage to a passenger vehicle by scratching it with a 
key.  'I'he  second Article 15 was for damaging a screen door and screen; scratching the vehicle of another 
airman with a key; and scratching another airmail on thc arms, chest and face with her fingernails.  She 
received a suspended reduction  in grade to Airman, restricted to Dover AFB for 30 days which was defcrrcd 
until November 2 1, 2005.  The applicant received her second Vacation of the suspended reduction  in grade 
to Airman for failing to obey a lawful order by contacting another airman (the married man from the first 
Article  15).  Her final Article  15 was for failure to obey a no-contact order and driving in a reckless manner. 
She received a reduction in grade to Airman Basic and a reprimand.  Applicant also had misconduct in 
which she was administratively disciplined for failure to obey a no-contact order, dorm room infractions, and 
for being in a government vehicle as a passenger and driving outside of the limits of base.  The DRB opined 
that through these administrative actions, the applicant had ample opportunities to change her negative 
behavior.  The Board concluded the misconduct was a significant departure from conduct expected of all 
military members.  The characteri~ation of the discharge received by the applicant was found to be 
appropriate. 

CONCLUSIONS:  The Discharge Review Board collcludes 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.
