CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2009-00143
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.
FINDINGS: The Board denies the upgrade of the discharge, change of reason and authority for discharge,
and change of reenlistment code are denied.
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 contends discharge was inequitable because it was too harsh. He further contends as a result of
being sexually assaulted by another airman it resulted in his drinking of alcohol and ADAPT failure. The
records indicated the applicant received a General Discharge in accordance with AFI 36-3208, paragraph
5.32.1.2 for Failure in Alcohol Abuse Treatment. The DRB opined that the applicant had ample
opportunities to change his negative behavior. 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.
The Board highly recommends that if the applicant can provide additional documented information to
substantiate his issue(s), that he should consider exercising their right to make a personal appearance before
the Board. If the applicant chooses to exercise this right, he should be prepared to provide the DRB with
factual evidence of the inequity/impropriety and any exemplary post-service accomplishments as well as any
contributions to the community.
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 duc 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.
