(1-2) The issues are rejected. The Board noted that the applicant met entrance qualification standards to include age.

The Board fully considered all faithful and honorable service as well as infractions of discipline, the extent thereof, and the seriousness of the offenses. The Board concluded that the discrediting entries in the applicant's record were not outweighed by prior or subsequent service of sufficient merit to warrant an upgrade of the discharge being reviewed.
