AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATlONALE	CASE NUMBER

FD-2008-00448	

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 and requests that the review	completed based on the available service record .

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

FINDING:  The Board denies the upgrade of the discharge.

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:

Applicant submitted no issues regarding the inequity or impropriety of his discharge.  The record indicates the applicant received an Article 15, a Letter of Repri mand, two Letters of Admonishment and three Records oflndividual Counseling.  His misconduct incl uded reporting for duty out of uniform, failure to secure work station, failure to log mandatory  workouts, reporting late for duty (2x) and failure to go.  The Board opined that through these administrative actions, the applicant had ample opportunities to change his behavior.
They found the seriousness of the willful miscond uct	any positive aspects of the applicant's duty performance.  The Board reviewed the ent ire record and found no evidence of impropriety or inequity to warrant an upgrade of the discharge.

CONCLUSION: The Discharge Revievv 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 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 and determines the discharge should remain unchanged.
