CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2010-00300
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: Applicant contends his discharge was inequitable because it is based on one isolated incident in 39
months of service. The record reflects the applicant received General discharge for Misconduct: Drug
Abuse. Upon review of the record, the Board was unable to find any documentation regarding the discharge.
Due to lack of evidence and supporting documentation to explain the discharge, the Board concludes that the
misconduct was a significant departure from the conduct expected of all military members. The Board relies
on the presumption of regularity and finds the characterization; reason for discharge and the reenlistment
code were 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.

ISSUE: Applicant received a General discharge for Misconduct — Drug Abuse. Notwithstanding the applicant’s claim that this was an isolated incident, the Board found the seriousness of drug abuse affords the commander authority to pursue administrative discharge to uphold good order and discipline, regardless of whether or not the member has an otherwise clear record. After a thorough review of the record, the Board found no evidence to justify an upgrade of the discharge.
