AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE | rp 5919-00343

GENERAL: The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge to honorable and to change the reason and
authority for the discharge, and to change the reenlistment code.

The applicant appeared and testified before the Discharge Review Board (DRB), with counsel, via video
teleconference between Andrews AFB Maryland and Randolph AFB Texas on 25 Oct 2012.

The attached brief contains available pertinent data on the applicant and the factors leading to the discharge.

FINDING: The requests to upgrade the discharge, to change of reason and authority for discharge, and to
change of reenlistment code are denied.

ISSUE: Applicant submitted no issues regarding the inequity or impropriety of her discharge. The
applicant does submit that she believes she deserves a second chance despite her discrepancies so that she
may serve her country in the United States military. The record indicates the applicant received seven
Letters of Reprimand and two Records of Individual Counseling and was convicted by a summary court-
martial officer with an adjudged sentence of confinement. Her misconduct included failure to go (3x),
failure to perform duties (2x), insubordinate to supervisor (2x), failure to obey an order (2x), and failure to
maintain her dorm room within standards. The Board opined that through these administrative and military
justice actions, the applicant had ample opportunities to change her behavior. They found the seriousness of
the willful misconduct offset any positive aspects of the applicant's duty performance. The Board reviewed
the entire record and found no evidence of impropriety or inequity to warrant an upgrade of the discharge.

The DRB was pleased to see that the applicant was doing well and has a good job. However, no inequity or
impropriety in her discharge was suggested or found in the course of the hearing. The Board concluded the
misconduct of the applicant appropriately characterized her term of 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.

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.
