VI. Facts, Circumstances, and Legal Basis for Separation
a. Facts and Circumstances:
The facts and circumstances leading to the applicants discharge from the State of Illinois Army National Guard and as a Reserve of the Army are not contained in the available records. However, the record does contain a properly constituted NGB Form 22 (Report of Separation and Record of Service), which the applicant was unavailable for signature. Her NGB Form 22 indicates that she was discharged under the provisions of paragraph 8-27(a), NGR 600-200, by reason of acts or patterns of misconduct, with a characterization of service of general, under honorable conditions and a Reenlistment Eligibility Code of RE "3." Evidence of record shows that on 24 October 2003, Department Of Military Affairs, State Of Illinois, Springfield, Illinois, Orders 297-103, discharged the applicant from the Army National Guard and as a Reserve of the Army, effective date: 18 September 2003.
b. Legal Basis for Separation:
National Guard Regulation (NGR) 600-200 and Army Regulation 135-178 govern procedures for the administrative separation of enlisted personnel of the Army National Guard and Army Reserve. Chapter 8 of NGR 600-200 covers, in pertinent part, reasons for discharge and separation of enlisted personnel from the State Army National Guard and as a Reserve of the Army. The regulation defines misconduct by reason of one or more of the following: minor disciplinary infractions, a pattern of misconduct, commission of a serious offense, abuse of illegal drugs, and conviction by civil authorities.
c. Response to Issues, Recommendation and Rationale:
After a careful review of all the applicants available military records for the period of enlistment under review and the issue she submitted, the analyst recommends that relief be denied in this case. The applicants record is void of the specific facts and circumstances concerning the events that led to her discharge from the State of Illinois Army National Guard and a reserve of the Army. However, the record does contain a properly constituted NGB Form 22 (Report of Separation and Record of Service), which the applicant was unavailable for signature. This document identifies the reason and characterization of the service and the analyst presumed Government regularity in the discharge process. The evidence of record shows the applicant was discharged under the provisions of Chapter 8, Paragraph 8-27(a), NGR 600-200, by reason of acts or patterns of misconduct with a characterization of service of general, under honorable conditions. Barring evidence to the contrary, the analyst was satisfied that all requirements of law and regulation were met and the rights of the applicant were fully protected throughout the separation process. Therefore, the narrative reason for discharge remains both proper and equitable.
