CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2008-00164
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 submits his personal perspective regarding the events which led to his eventual discharge. The
applicant alludes to a personality conflict with his immediate supervisors, separation from his spouse,
miscarriage of a baby and his medical condition led to his administrative actions. The record indicates the
applicant received three (3) letters of counseling, one (1) letter of reprimand and one (1) Article 15 with a
Vacation action. His misconduct included failure to go (x4), frequent tardiness from work, and
disrespect/insubordination to a commissioned officer. The Board opined that through these administrative
actions, the applicant had ample opportunities to change his behavior. The Board found the seriousness of
the willful misconduct offset any positive aspects of the applicant's duty performance. The Board reviewed
the entire record and found no evidence of impropriety or inequity in this case on which to base an upgrade
of the discharge.
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.
