AIR FORCE DISCHARGE  REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE	CASE !'IUMBER

1•002-0177	

GENERAL:  The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge to Honorable.

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 to the discharge.

F1NDINGS:  Up1',l'ade of discharge is denied.

The board finds that the applicant submitted no issues contesting the equity or propriety of the discharge,  and after a thorough review of the record, the Board was able to identi!'y none that would justify a change of discharge.

ISSUE:  The applicant submitted no issues and requested that the review be completed based on the available service record.  The Board reviewed the entire record and fbund no evidence of impropriety or inequity in this case on which to base an upgrade of discharge.  The records indicated applicant had  received four Article 15's. The first one was for possessing marijuana; the second one was for being drunk on duty, the third for being disorderly and the fourth for operating a vehicle in a reck less manner, being disrespectful and disorderly.  He also received six Letler's of Reprimand and ten Letter's ol Counseling for speeding, disorderl y conduct, uniform violations, failure to follow procedures, playing dominoes during commander's call, substandard duty perl(mnance, absent from his duty seciion without approval, failed to
attend a supervisor safety course, failure to report a vehicle accident, writing worthless checks, late for duty and having a delinquent DPP account.   The DRB opined that through these administrati ve actions, the applicant had ample opportunities to change his negative/repetitive behavior.  The Board concluded the disciplinary infractions were a significant departure from the 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.

CONCLUSIONS:   The Discharge Review Board concludes that the discharge was consistent with the procedural and substanti ve requirements of the discharge regulation and \Vas within the discretion of the discharge authority and that the applicant was provided foll administrative due process.

In view of the foregoing findings the board further concludes that there exists no legal or equita ble ba.'<i s for upgrade of discharge, thus the applicant's discharge should not be changed.
