AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD  DECISIONAL RATIONALE 

CASE NUMBER 

FD-f 006-00346 

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

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: 

The applicant did not receive an administrative discharge.  I-Ie received a Bad Conduct Discharge, a punitive 
discharge, as part of his sentence resulting from a Special Court-Martial conviction. Under the provisions of 
Section 1553, 10 USC, the only basis for a change of a Bad Conduct discharge is clemency. The applicant 
did not present evidence which thc DRB could consider for upgrade.  Thereibre, the DRB opined his 
application did not warrant granting clemency. 

CONCLUSIONS:  The  Discharge  Review  Board  concluded  that  the  applicant's  punitive  discharge  by 
Special Court-Martial  is appropriate  under the facts and circumstances of this case and there is  insufficient 
basis, as an act of clemency, for change of discharge.
