PART IV - PREHEARING REVIEW

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

	a.  Evidence of record shows that on 28 March 2000, the applicant was notified of initiation of elimination proceedings under the provisions of Chapter 4, AR 600-8-24, by reason of misconduct, moral or professional dereliction.  On 17 April 2000, the applicant voluntarily tendered her resignation from the service under the provisions of Chapter 4, AR 600-8-24, resignation in lieu of further elimination proceedings.  The chain of command recommended approval of the resignation in lieu of elimination proceedings with issuance of a general, under honorable conditions discharge.  On 20 July 2000, the Deputy Assistant Secretary (Army Review Boards) approved the recommendation of the Army Ad Hoc Review Board and directed that the applicant be discharged with a characterization of service of general, under honorable conditions.  

	b.  On 9 February 1996, the applicant was discharged.  At the time of discharge, the applicant had completed 4 years, 6 months, and 22 days of active military service.

2.  Legal/Regulatory Basis for Separation Action:  Army Regulation 600-8-24 sets for the basic authority for Officer transfers and discharges.  Chapter 4 outlines the policy and procedure for the eliminating officer from the active Army for substandard performance of duty, misconduct, moral or professional dereliction, and the interest of national security.
