EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The applicant was discharged for Pattern of Misconduct due to alcohol related incidents, an inappropriate
relationship and assaulting another shipmate.
The Board finds no issues with propriety or equity in this case. The applicant was notified of the intent to
discharge, and the applicant was advised of the rights to an attorney. A statement was made while objecting to
the discharge.
The member was discharged with the SPD code of JKA due to the variety of misconduct during the period of
service. The applicant states that the command recommended an Honorable Discharge, although all the
separation documents read with a recommendation for a General Discharge. The applicant received a General,
Under Honorable Conditions Discharge with an RE4 reentry code.

aligned with the Military Separations Manual, COMDTINST M1000.4, Art 1.B.17 vice the Certificate of
Release of Discharge Form Active Duty, DD Form 214 Manual.
