AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2008-00364

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
and requests that the review be completed bascd on the available service record. The attached brief contains
available pertinent data on the applicant and the factors leading to the discharge.

FINDINGS: The Board denies the upgrade of the discharge.

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.

Evidence in the record indicates the applicant received:

1. Two (2) Letters of Reprimand for derelict in performance of duties (failed to follow an order/false
official statement) and failure to complete Introductory Flight Training due to factors within his
control.

One (1) Letter of Counseling for failure to attend a meeting with his commander

One (1) AETC Form 126a for allowing several awards to go undelivered to recipients

One (1) statement from the MSS/CC concerning late report for a flight

Five (5) Memoranda for Record for failure to call in sortie counts, failure to complete assigned
duties, oversleeping and reporting late for duty, inability to meet suspenses and failure to track
inventory of chemical defense equipment and failure to report for duty

ISSUES: The applicant contends his was inequitable bascd on 1) instances that were either not within his
control or influence 2) his commander showed unprofessionalism throughout the discharge process and
attacked the applicant’s personality in an unlair way

The Board opined that the applicant had ample opportunities to change his behavior. Given the record in
hand, the Board concluded that the negative aspects of the applicant’s service outweighed the positive
contributions he made in his Air Force career. The Board determined the discharge was appropriate.

However, the Board highly recommends, that if the applicant can provide additional documented
information to substantiate his issues, he should consider exercising his right to make a personal appearance
before the Board. If he should choose to exercise his right, the applicant should be prepared to provide the
Board with factual evidence of the inequity and any exemplary post-service accomplishments as well as any
contributions to the community.

CONCLUSIONS: At this time, 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.
