AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE
CASE NUMBER

FD-2013-00603
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 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.

ISSUE:

Applicant contends his discharge was improper and based solely on his civilian convictions received while serving on active duty. The records indicated the applicant received one Article 15, three Letters of Reprimand, four Letters of Counseling, two Letters of Admonishment and one Record of Individual Counseling. His misconduct includes multiple failures to go, making a false statement to an NCO, disrespect toward an NCO, a civilian conviction of assault upon a police officer and resisting arrest, a DUI, and reporting to duty in an incapacitated state due to overindulgence in alcohol. 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 and member's contentions have no merit. The Board reviewed the entire record and found no evidence of impropriety or inequity to warrant an upgrade of the discharge.

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.
