RESUME OF CASE:

On 4 Aug 07, the AFBCMR considered the applicant’s request that 
her discharge be upgraded to honorable and her narrative reason 
for separation be changed.  After careful consideration of the 
available evidence, the Board denied the applicant’s request and 
stated should the applicant provide evidence of successful post-
service rehabilitation that they would be willing to reconsider 
her appeal based on the new evidence. For an accounting of the 
facts and circumstances surrounding the application, and the 
rationale of the earlier decision by the Board, see the Record 
of Proceedings (ROP) at Exhibit F.  

By letter dated 12 Jun 08, applicant requests reconsideration of 
her appeal for an upgrade of her discharge to honorable.  She 
provided her resume, and thirteen letters of reference.  Her 
submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit G.

Pursuant to the Board’s request on 15 Jul 08, the Federal Bureau 
of Investigation, Clarksburg, West Virginia, indicated on 16 Jul 
08, that, on the basis of the data furnished, they were unable 
to locate an arrest record (Exhibit H).


THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT

After careful consideration of the evidence of record and the 
applicant’s most recent submission, we found no evidence that 
her discharge was either erroneous or unjust.  It appears the 
applicant’s discharge was consistent with the substantive 
requirements of the discharge regulation and within the 
commander’s discretionary authority.  No evidence has been 
provided which would lead us to believe the characterization of 
her service was contrary to the provisions of the governing 
regulation, unduly harsh, or disproportionate to the offenses 
committed.  We have noted the letters of character reference 
provided in the applicant’s behalf.  However, in view of the 
overall quality of the applicant’s service, and the events which 
precipitated her discharge, we are not persuaded that an upgrade 
of the characterization of her discharge is warranted on the 
basis of clemency.  Based on the foregoing, we are not persuaded 
that a revision of the earlier determination is warranted.

_______________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

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