AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE

FD-2008-00197

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 the 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:

Applicant submitted no specific issues regarding the inequity or impropriety of his discharge, but requests an
upgrade of his discharge so that he can return to military and serve his country. The applicant submits no
information or documentation demonstrating that an act of inequity or impropriety adversely affected the
means and process of his discharge from the Air Force. The records indicated the applicant received a Letter
of Counseling for failing to carry on his person his restricted area badge; a Letter of Reprimand for failure to
go and disobeying a lawful order (by failing to wear his security forces beret in an outdoor environment);
and an Article 15 for drunk and disorderly conduct bringing discredit to the Armed Forces. The Board found
the applicant conducted himself in a manner that disrupted the good order and discipline necessary to the
success of the Air Force and his unit’s mission. After thorough review of the record, the Board determined
that the discharge, reason for discharge and reenlistment code were 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.
