AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE	CASE NUMBER

FD-2010-00214	

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 be 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.

ISSUE:	Applicant received a General discharge for a Pattern of Misconduct - Conduct Prejudicial to Good Order and Discipline

Applicant submitted no issues regarding the inequity or impropriety of his discharge.  The record indicates the applicant received one Article 15, one Vacation, two Letters of Reprimand, and one Record oflndividual Counseling.  His misconduct included underage drinking (2x), having females in his dorm room, tampered with a smoke detector, violated curfew, failed to report on time to place of duty, driving while intoxicated, failed to obey order to go to physical fitness, and failed to report to duty on three separate occasions.   The Board opined that through these administrative actions, the applicant had ample opportunities to change his behavior.  They found the seriousness of the willful misconduct offset any positive aspects of the applicant's duty performance.  The Board reviewed the entire record and found no evidence of impropriety or inequity  to warrant an upgrade of the discharge.

CONCLUSION: 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 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.
