AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE

GENERAL  The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge to Honorable

CASE  L, 1BER

FD02-0009

The applicant was offered a personal appearance before the Discharge Review Board (DRB) but declined to exercise this right

The attached brief contains the available pertinent data on the applicant and the factors leading t o the discharge

FINDINGS	Upgrade of discharge is denied

The board finds that neither evidence of record nor that provided by the applicant substantiates an inequity or impropriety, which would just ify a change of discharge

The applicant's issues are listed in the attached brief

ISSUE: The applicant contends her discharge was inequitable because it was too harsh	She mentions her problems were the fault of	and his wife  And that she was the one that was getti ng phone cal ls  The record shows that the applicant received four Article I S's  One for Assault, one for failure to go, one for wrongfully using her government charge card for unofficial business, and the last one for violati ng a no­ contact order	In add ition, she also received two Letters of Reprimand for failure to go and being late for work   The board concluded the misconduct was a significant departure from conduct expected of all  military members	The Board found no evidence of impropriety or inequity in this case on which to base an upgrade of discharge and that the characterization of the discharge received by the applicant was found to
be  appropriate

CONCLUSIONS:   The Discharge Review Board  concludes that the discharge was consistent with the procedural  and substantive requirements  of the discharge regulation  and was within the discretion  of the discharge authority  and that the applicant was provided fu ll administrative due process

In view of the foregoing findings the board  further concludes that there exists no legal  or equitable basis for u pg rade of discharge, th us the applicant's discharge should not be changed.
