CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2009-00055
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.
FINDING: The Board denics 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:
Applicant submitted no issues regarding the inequity or impropriety of his discharge. He admits that he was
young and immature. The records indicate the applicant received an Article 15, a Vacation and a Letter of
Reprimand. His misconduct consisted of being drunk and disorderly (2x) and was charged by civilian
authorities for driving under the influence of alcohol. The DRB recognized the applicant was 22 years of
age when the discharge took place. However, there is no evidence he was immature or did not know right
from wrong. The Board opined the applicant was older than the vast majority of first-term members who
properly adhere to the Air Force’s standards of conduct. The DRB concluded that the characterization of the
applicant’s discharge was appropriate due to the misconduct.
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.
