AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE	CASE NUMBER

FD2002·0521	

GENERAL:  The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge to Honorable, change of reason for discharge, and change of reenlistment eligibility (RE) code.

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

The attached brief contains the available pertinent data on the applicant and the factors leading to the discharge.

FINDINGS:  Upgrade of discharge is denied.

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

The applicant's issues are listed in the attached brief.

Issue. Applicant states that his discharge was based on one incident in what were 13 years and 7 months of otherwise exemplary service. The records indicated that the applicant received two Letters of Reprimand and one Article 15 for misconduct. The misconduct included engaging in unprofessional relationships with subordinates. The applicant asked an Airman First Class to lie on his behalf and engaged in unprofessional relationships with two Airman under his direct supervision. The DRB opined that the applicant had an adequate understanding of his duties and responsibilities as a non-commissioned officer. The Board concluded the misconduct was a significant departure from the conduct expected of all military members, and particularly so for non-commissioned  officers.

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 full administrative due process.

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

Attachment: Examiner's Brief
