CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2008-00575
GENERAL: The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge to honorable, to change the reason and
authority for the discharge, and to change the reenlistment code.
The applicant was offered a personal appearance before the Discharge Review Board (DRB) but declined
and requests that the review be completed based on the available service record.
The attached brief contains available pertinent data on the applicant and the factors leading to the discharge.
FINDING: The Board denies the upgrade of the discharge, change of reason and authority for discharge,
and change of reenlistment code.
The Board finds the applicant submitted no issues contesting the equity or propriety of the discharge, and
after a thorough review of the record, the Board was unable to identify any that would justify a change of
discharge.
ISSUE:
Applicant submitted no issues regarding the inequity or impropriety of his discharge. The applicant does
express a desire to have his discharge upgraded so that he may be eligible to reenlist into the armed forces.
The record indicates the applicant received an Article 15, two Letters of Reprimand, and two Letters of
Counseling for misconduct. His misconduct included failure to maintain proper dress and appearance,
failure to go (3x), and failure to meet dormitory standards. The Board opined that through these
administrative actions, the applicant had ample opportunities to change his behavior. They 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 to warrant an upgrade of
the discharge.
CONCLUSION: 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 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 and determines the discharge should remain unchanged.
