CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2009-00154
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 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:
Issue 1. The applicant acknowledged the “mistake” she made that led to her discharge. The record indicates
the applicant received an LOR dated 10 November 2008 for wrongfully using marijuana. The applicant
contends she was overwhelmed with stress from her unsuccessful marriage, husband’s severe mental issues,
and financial obligations. Although the applicant has no previous disciplinary infractions, drug abuse is
incompatible with military service. The Board concluded the misconduct was significant departure from
conducted expected of all military members. The characterization of the discharge received by the applicant
was found to be appropriate.
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.
