CASE NUMBER
AIR FORCE DISCHARGE REVIEW BOARD DECISIONAL RATIONALE FD-2005-00113
GENERAL: The applicant appeals for upgrade of discharge from a bad conduct discharge to an under
honorable conditions (general) discharge.
The applicant requested a personal appearance before the Discharge Review Board (DRB) and was
scheduled for an appearance on 26 January 2006, via video-teleconference between St. Augustine FL, and
Andrews AFB, MD, but she did not keep the appointment or call to reschedule. Therefore her request for
clemency was reviewed based upon the record and her submission.
The attached brief contains available pertinent data on the applicant and the factors leading to the discharge.
FINDINGS: Upgrade of discharge is denied.
The Board finds that the applicant did not provide sufficient evidence to persuade the DRB that clemency
action was justified in the applicant's case.
ISSUE:
The applicant received a Bad Conduct Discharge, a type of punitive discharge, as part of her sentence
resulting from a Special Court-Martial conviction. Her case was reviewed by the convening authority and
military appellate courts and they approved the findings and sentence of the court-martial. Under the
provisiol~s Title 10 of the United States Code, Section 1553, the only basis for a change of a Bad Conduct
of
discharge is clemency. The applicant presented evidence which the DRB opined did not warrant granting
clemency. While the applicant alleges that her unit did not help her with her problems, the record does not
support that contention and she provided no additional explanation of her contention. She argued that the
checks she wrote bounced due to her then-husband's actions, but the record shows that she wrote checks
knowing she would not have the money in the bank to pay them. She stated that she has received additional
education since her conviction but did not provide the DRB with any evidence of the type of education she
has received. She states she has now married a new husband and has a family, but did not explain why those
facts warrant granting clemency. While the DRB was sympathetic to her situation as the wife of an
irresponsible husband, that did not excuse her own intentional misconduct. The DRB noted that she had
terminated that relationship and begun a new family, but that did not justify granting clemency.
CONCLUSIONS: The Discharge Review Board concludes that the discharge was consistent with the
procedural and substantive requirements of the Unites States Code and was within the discretion of the
discharge authority and that the applicant was provided full administrative and legal due process.
The Discharge Review Board concluded that the applicant's punitive discharge by Special Court-Martial is
appropriate under the facts and circumstances of this case and there is insufficient basis, as an act of
clemency, for change of discharge.
