PART IV - PREHEARING REVIEW

SECTION A-ANALYST’S ASSESSMENT
l. Facts and Circumstances:

         a. Evidence of record shows that on 8 July 1986, the unit commander notified the applicant of initiation of separation action under the provisions of
Chapter l4, AR 635-200, by reason of misconduct—patterns of misconduct, with a general (GD) discharge. He was advised of his rights. The applicant acknowledged notification, consulted with legal counsel, was advised of the impact of the discharge action, and did not submit a statement on his behalf. The unit commander subsequently recommended waiver of further rehabilitative efforts. The intermediate commander reviewed the proposed discharge action and recommended approval. Staff Judge Advocate determined the separation action to be legally sufficient. On 31 July 1986, the separation authority waived further rehabilitative efforts and directed that the applicant be discharged with a GD.

         b. On 11 August 1986, the applicant was discharged with a general, under honorable conditions discharge. At the time of discharge, the applicant had
1 year, 11 months, and 7 days service on his current enlistment.

2.
Legal/Regulatory Basis for Separation Action : Army Regulation 635-200 sets forth the basic authority for the separation of enlisted personnel. Chapter l4 establishes policy and prescribes procedures for separating members for misconduct. Specific categories include minor disciplinary infractions, a pattern of misconduct, commission of a serious offense, to include abuse of illegal drugs, convictions by civil authorities and desertion or absence without leave. Action will be taken to separate a member for misconduct when it is clearly established that rehabilitation is impractical or unlikely to succeed. Army policy states that an under other than honorable conditions discharge is normally considered appropriate, but a general discharge under honorable conditions or an honorable discharge may be granted.
