CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2008-00154
GENERAL: The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge to honorable.
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 contends that his discharge was inequitable because it was based on his commander not
wanting him dating a stripper. The record indicates that the applicant received 1) three Letters of Reprimand
for violating dress and appearance standards by wearing a tongue ring while in uniform and for driving his
vehicle on a runway taxiway without a pass and for reckless driving; and 2) two Article 15s for failing to go
at time prescribed to his appointed place of duty and dereliction in performance of his duty by negligently
failing to take action to schedule and complete his required flight physical within time prescribed. After
review of the record, the Board found that the applicant submitted no evidence, nor was there any in the
record, to indicate that he was discharged based on his dating situation. The Board concluded that the
negative aspects of the applicant’s service outweighed the positive contributions he made in his Air Force
career. The characterization of the discharge received by the applicant was found to be appropriate.
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.

AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD HEARING RECORD NAME OF SERVICE MEMBER (LAST, FIRST MIDDLE INITIAL) GRADE AFSN/SSAN po AB TYPE GEN | PERSONAL APPEARANCE RECORD REVIEW _ COUNSEL.) FINDING: The Board denies the upgrade of the discharge. AFI 44-121, Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention and Treatment (ADAPT) Program, paragraph 3.8.1 states that commanders shall refer all service members for assessment when substance abuse is suspected to be a contributing factor in any incident, such as DUI.

Therefore, his request for upgrade was reviewed based upon the record and his submission. 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. In addition, the applicant received an LOR for test driving a Honda, informing the sales person that he would return the car at 1730 that evening.

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. He contends he “took a General Discharge” because the Air Force was down-sizing. The applicant request that his discharge be upgraded so he can reenlist in the Air Force Reserve.
