AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL  RATIONALE	CASE NUMBER

FD-2004-00208	

GENERAL:  The applicant appeal s for upgrade of discharge to honorabl e.

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

The attached brief contains avail able pertinent data on the applicant and the factors Jcading to the discharge.

Fl NDINGS:   Upgrade of discharge is denied.

The Board finds the applicant submitted no issues contesting the equity or propriety of the discharge, and after a thorough review of the record, the Board was unable to identify any that would justify a change of discharge.

ISSUE: The records indicated the applicant received two Article  1 Ss, three Letters of Reprimand and two Letters of Counseling for  misconduct. The ORB opined that through these administrative actions,  the applicant had ample opportunities to change his negative behavior. The Board  concluded  the misconduct was a significant departure from conduct expected of all military mc1nbcrs. 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 substanti ve requirements of the discharge regul ation and was withi n the discretion of the discharge authority and that the appl icant was provided full administrative due process.

Tn vi ew of the foregoing findings the Board further concludes that there exists no legal or equitable basis for upgrade of discharge, thus the applicant's discharge should not be changed.
