AIR FORCE DISCHARGE  REVIE\V BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE

CASE   UMBER

FD-2005-00062

GENERAL:  The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge to honorable, change the reason and authority for the discharge, and change the reenlistment code.

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

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

FINDINGS: Upgrade of discharge, change of reason and authority for discharge, and  change  of reenlistment code are denied.

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

ISSUE: Applicant does not contest her discharge. She states that her comments  to her  MTL  and other higher ups would never be taken into consideration. This issue is without merit as the applicant did not go into any detail as to what she is referring to. She also feels that time and time again she was made out to be a liar and was threatened by her MTL. This issue is also without merit as there is no documentation as to what the applicant is referring to. The records indicated the applicant received four Letters of Repri mand and one Record of Individual Counseling for dereliction of duty, failure to obey lawful orders, failing her room inspection several times and for violating curfew. The  DRB  opined  that  through  these  administrative actions, the applicant had  ample opportu nities to change her negative behavior.   The Board  concluded the
misconduct was a significant departure from conduct expected of all military members.  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 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, thus the applicant's discharge should not be changed.
