CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2010-00317
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 discharge is upgraded to general.
ISSUE: Applicant received an Under Other Than Honorable Conditions (UOTHC) discharge for
Misconduct — Commission of a Serious Offense
Applicant contends discharge was inequitable because it was based on an isolated incident. Additionally, he
states that his discharge did not take into account the good things he did while in the service. The records
indicated the applicant was convicted under a summary court martial, received one Article 15, two Letters of
Reprimand, one Letter of Counseling, and one Record of Individual Counseling. His misconduct included
attempted theft from AAFES, solicited an airman to steal from AAFES (2x), failed to report in after
emergency leave, failed to maintain dorm room standards (3x), disobeyed an order (3x), failed to perform
duties, misuse of government travel card, and failure to pay debt on government travel card. The DRB took
note of the applicant's duty performance as documented by his performance reports, letters of
recommendation and other accomplishments. Although the Board did not condone the applicant’s
misconduct, they found that based on his entire record and personal circumstances at the time of discharge a
UOTHC discharge was too harsh and concluded a General discharge more appropriately characterized the
applicant’s service.
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.
However, in view of the foregoing findings, the Board concludes that the overall quality of applicant’s
service is more accurately reflected by an Under honorable Conditions (General) under the provisions of
Title 10, USC 1553.

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. Applicant submitted no issues regarding the inequity or impropriety of his/her discharge. The DRB took note of the applicant's duty performance as documented by his performance reports, letters of recommendation and other accomplishments.
