CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2010-00375
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.
ISSUE: Applicant received a General discharge for Unsatisfactory Performance — Irresponsibility in the
Performance of Personal Finances
Applicant submitted no issues regarding the inequity or impropriety of her discharge. The record indicates
the applicant received one Article 15, two Letters of Reprimand, and a Record of Individual Counseling.
Her misconduct included with intent to defraud two airmen issued checks from their accounts without
authority payable to the applicant, with intent to defraud twice issued checks from another individuals
account without permission of the account holder payable to the applicant, failed to pay military Star Card
(2x), failed to pay just debt, made a false statement, abused Government Travel Card (2x), and failed to
make payments on Government Travel Card (5x). The Board opined that through these administrative
actions, the applicant had ample opportunities to change his 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 applicant cited her desire to receive the G.I. Bill benefits as justification for upgrade. The DRB noted
that when the applicant applied for these benefits, she signed a statement (DD Form 2366, on June 7, 2001)
that she understood she must receive an Honorable discharge to receive future educational entitlements. The
Board was sympathetic to the impact the loss of these benefits was having on the applicant, but this is not a
matter of inequity or impropriety which would warrant an upgrade.
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.
