CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2006-00403
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 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:
Issue 1. Applicant contends discharge was inequitable because it was too harsh. She has expressed a desire
to have her discharge upgraded so that she may be eligible to reenlist into the armed forces. The records
indicated the applicant received an Article 15, three Letters of Reprimand, two Letters of Counseling, and
two Records of Individual Counseling for misconduct. Her misconduct included wrongfully possessing with
intent to deceive an instrument purporting to be an AF Form 73, Visitor/Vehicle Pass, failure to obey a
lawful order, failure to go (2x), traffic ticket, being late for work and arriving out of uniform, dereliction of
duty, and disrespect towards an NCO and members of the unit (2x). The DRB opined that through these
administrative actions, the applicant had ample opportunities to change her negative behavior. The Board
concluded that the negative aspects of the applicant’s service outweighed the positive contributions she made
in her Air Force career. The characterization of the discharge received by the applicant was found to be
appropriate.
Issue 2. Applicant states that her discharge did not take into account the good things she did while in the
service. The DRB took note of the applicant's duty performance as documented by her 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.

The applicant was offered a personal appearance before the Discharge Review Board (DRB) but declined and requests that the review be completed based on the available service record. FINDING: The Board denies the upgrade of the discharge. After a review of the record, the Board found no evidence to indicate that the applicant did not know right from wrong or that in her three years of service she was unaware of the Air Force policy of zero tolerance to drug use.
