AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE |
CASE NUMBER FD-2013-00602 |
| GENERAL:
The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge to honorable, to change the reason and authority for the discharge to change the reenlistment code. 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 change of reason and authority for discharge, and change of reenlistment code are denied. ISSUE: Applicant contends that it is his true desire to continue to serve his country in the Armed Forces. He regrets his unsatisfactory participation. The record indicates the applicant received a General discharge from his Reserve Unit: Unsatisfactory Participation. 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 finds the applicant submitted no issues contesting the equity or propriety of the discharge, and after a thorough review of the record, the Board was unable to identify any that would justify a change of discharge. 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. Attachment: Examiner's Brief |
