CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2009-00086
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.
After a review of the record, the Board unanimously voted to grant the relief of the requested upgrade as
discussed below.
FINDING: The Board denies the upgrade of the discharge.
The Board finds the applicant submitted no issues contesting the equity or propricty 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 cite
his desire to receive the G.l. Bill benefits as justification for upgrade. The DRB noted that when "
applicant applied for these benefits, he signed a statement (DD Form 2366) that he understood he must
receive an Honorable discharge to receive future educational entitlements. The Board was sympathetic to
the impact the loss of these benefits was having on the applicant, but this is not a matter of inequity or
impropriety which would warrant an upgrade.
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.
