		COUNSEL:  NONE

		HEARING DESIRED:  NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

In the applicant's request for reconsideration, he requests his general (under honorable conditions) discharge be upgraded to honorable.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force (RegAF) on 30 June 1999, as an airman first class (A1C) for a period of four years.

The applicant's request to be reinstated to active duty and be awarded back pay was considered and denied by the Board on 19 November 2002.  For an accounting of the facts and circumstances surrounding the applicant's request to receive back pay and reinstatement to active duty, and the rationale of the earlier decision by the Board, see the Record of Proceedings, with attachments, at Exhibit J.

The applicant submitted an undated letter with attachments requesting reconsideration of his request that his general discharge be upgraded to honorable (Exhibit K).

Pursuant to the Board’s request, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Washington, D.C., provided an investigative report which is attached at Exhibit C.  The report was not forwarded to the applicant because the only entry was the assault charge while on active duty (Exhibit L).

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

After careful consideration of the applicant’s reconsideration request and the documentation submitted in support of his appeal, we are not persuaded that reversal of our previous decision is warranted.  The applicant’s contentions are duly noted, however, 
we find no impropriety in the characterization of applicant’s discharge.  It appears that responsible officials applied appropriate standards in effecting the separation, and we do not find persuasive evidence that pertinent regulations were violated or that the applicant was not afforded all the rights to which entitled at the time of discharge.  Therefore, we conclude the discharge was appropriate under the existing circumstances and we find no compelling basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this application.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not demonstrate the existence of probable material error or injustice; that the application was denied without a personal appearance; and that the application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this application.
