documentation on file in the master personnel records, the 
discharge, to include the service characterization, was 
appropriately administered and within the discretion of the 
discharge authority. Further, the applicant did not provide any 
evidence that an error or injustice occurred in the processing 
of his discharge warranting a change to his character of 
service. 

 

The complete HQ AFPC/DPSOS evaluation is at 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 agree with the opinion and recommendation 
of the Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt its 
rationale as the basis for our conclusion the applicant has not 
been the victim of an error or injustice. Therefore, in the 
absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to 
recommend granting the relief sought in this application.

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that 
the application was denied without a personal appearance; and

submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered 
with this application.
