AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2008-00024
GENERAL: The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge to honorable, to change the reason for
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 reason 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 that her discharge was inequitable because it was based solely upon bias and
was used as an abuse of power by her chain of command (mainly her three first sergeants). The applicant
states that she was threatened, harassed and mentally abused. She adds that her entire Air Force career was
judged on very short period of time, where she was picked apart and continuously mistreated. The record
indicates that applicant received two Letters of Counseling, a Letter of Admonition, a Letter Reprimand and
two Article 15s for misconduct which included: failing to follow verbal instructions, failing to comply with
laboratory and quality control procedures, negligently failing to properly follow lab procedures, negligently
failed to properly label a specimen and disrespectful towards a noncommissioned officer. The Board found
no evidence to mitigate the applicant’s contention of mistreatment; just the opposite. The applicant was
afforded the opportunities to excel in her education and other base/unit activities; it was until her misconduct
that she was restricted from her activities. The Board found the commander’s decision to initiate
administrative action is supported by the evidence in the record and concludes the discharge was appropriate.
Issue 2: Applicant contends that there was something about her chain of command that was off and that
because of her desire to become an officer offended her superiors. The Board found no evidence available in
the record and none was presented by the applicant to warrant a change of the discharge.
Issue 3. Applicant contends that her discharge did not take into account the good things she did while in the
service. The Board took note of the applicant's duty performance as documented by performance reports,
letters of recommendation and other accomplishments. They found the seriousness of the misconduct offset
any positive aspects of the applicant's duty performance. The Board concluded that the discharge received by
the applicant was appropriate.
Issue 4: Applicant contends that she started having issues after a break-up with a long time boyfriend after
the New Year’s holiday. The record indicates that the applicant was seen at the Life Skill Center and was
diagnosed Adjustment Disorder with mixed anxiety/depressed mood and occupational problems; but was not
serious enough to warrant submission to a Medical Evaluation Board. In addition, in a memo written by her
clinical social worker the applicant was having problems managing occupational/social stressors and
maintaining military standards; but able to conform her behavior and considered responsible for her
behavior. The Board found no evidence to substantiate to warrant an upgrade of the discharge.
