CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2008-00592

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 based 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.

ISSUE: The applicant contends discharge was inequitable because the discharge improperly weighed a
month of misbehavior compared to his previous outstanding military record.

Applicant states that his discharge did not take into account the good things he did while in the service. The
DRB took note of the applicant's duty performance as documented by his letter of evaluation, letter of
appreciation, the stresses of an air traffic controller, and other accomplishments. The records indicated the
applicant received an Article 15 and a Vacation Action for misconduct. Both the Article 15 and Vacation
Action were for underage drinking. The Article 15 also indicated that he was drunk and disorderly. The
records further indicated that he had been referred to ADAPT after the issuance of the Article 15. 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 the applicant 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.
