PART IV - PREHEARING REVIEW

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

         a. The applicant’s record contains a properly constituted DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty). This DD Form 214 indicates that he was discharged under the provisions of Chapter 14, Section II, AR 635-200 by reason of civilian conviction with a characterization of service of general, under honorable conditions.

         b. On 26 May 1987, the applicant was discharged. At the time of discharge, the applicant had 3 years, 5 months, and 8 days service on his current enlistment and 6 years, 4 months and 5 days total time in service.

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.
