AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE	CASE NUMBER

FD03-0020	

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.

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 justify  a change of discharge.

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

ISSUE: The applicant does not contest the discharge; he states that his conduct while in the Air Force was unacceptable. However, he would like to re-enlist in the Army. The record indicates the applicant received two Article 15's for Failure to go, wrongfully failing to remain  on Sheppard AFB, wrongfully failing to remain in proper military uniform, and making a false official statement. And, for attempting to unlawfully enter the dorm room of another airman. In addition, he received a Letter of Reprimand for violation of room security standards, and failure to obey an order or regulation by not maintaining his dorm room in accordance within base guidelines.  The Board concluded the misconduct of the applicant appropriately characterized his term of service. No inequity or impropriety in his discharge was suggested or found in the course of the records review. His misconduct was a significant departure from conduct expected of all military members. The Board conc1uded that the character and reason for discharge were appropriate due to his misconduct.

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 of discharge or change the reason for discharge, thus the applicant's discharge should not be changed.
