RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS. IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2015-00791 COUNSEL: NONE HEARING DESIRED: NO APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: His general (under honorable conditions) discharge be upgraded to honorable. APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: His general discharge is not deserved. He did not get into trouble and was a good Airman. He is 40 percent disabled and his conditions will only get worse. Since he is a disabled veteran he deserves to be treated fairly. The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A. STATEMENT OF FACTS: The applicant initially entered the Regular Air Force on 2 April 1985. On 15 May 1987, the applicant’s commander notified him that he was recommending his discharge from the Air Force for Misconduct (Pattern of Minor Disciplinary Infractions). The specific reasons for the action were as follows: a)  On 17 June 1986, the applicant received a second notice for a dishonored check. b)  On 14 November 1986, the applicant received notification for revocation of his driving privileges due to the accumulation of 17 traffic points over a 12 month period. c)  On 14 November 1986, the applicant received a Letter of Reprimand (LOR) for disregard of his security police duties and responsibilities. An AF Form 1058, Unfavorable Information File (UIF) Action Under AFR 35-32, was initiated and he was placed on the control roster for a period of four months. d)  On 2 December 1986, the applicant received non-judicial punishment (NJP) under Article 15 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) in violation of Article 92. e)  On 19 March 1987, the applicant received a Letter of Counseling (LOC) for failure to go. f)  On 30 April 1987, the applicant received a LOR for violating his limited base driving privileges and it was placed in his existing UIF. He was placed on the control roster for four months. On 15 May 1987, the applicant acknowledged receipt of the action and, after consulting with legal counsel, waived his right to submit a statement in his own behalf. On 20 May 1987, the case was found to be legally sufficient. On 26 May 1987, the discharge authority directed the applicant be furnished a general discharge, without probation and rehabilitation. On 27 May 1987, the applicant was furnished a general (under honorable conditions) discharge, and was credited with 2 years 1 month, and 26 days of active service. On 18 November 1992, the Air Force Discharge Review Board (AFDRB) considered the applicant’s request to upgrade his discharge to honorable and concluded that the discharge was consistent with the procedural and substantive requirements of the discharge regulation, was within the discretion of the discharge authority, and that the applicant was provided full administrative due process. On 2 April 2015, a request for post-service information was forwarded to the applicant for comment within 30 days. As of this date, no response has been received by this office (Exhibit C). THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 1.  The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing law or regulations. 2.  The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file. 3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the existence of error or injustice. We took notice of the applicant’s complete submission in judging the merits of the case; however, we find no evidence of an error or injustice that occurred in the discharge process. Based on the available evidence of record, it appears the applicant’s general (under honorable conditions) discharge for Misconduct – Pattern of Minor Disciplinary Infractions was consistent with the substantive requirements of the discharge regulation and within the commander’s discretionary authority. In the interest of justice, we considered upgrading the discharge based on clemency; however, in the absence of any evidence related to the applicant’s activities since leaving the service, we find no basis to recommend granting the relief sought on that basis. In view of the foregoing, and in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we conclude no basis exists to upgrade the applicant’s general (under honorable conditions) discharge. THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT: The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not demonstrate the existence of material 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.
