SUBJECT: Letter of Reprimand - NO SHOW
1. It has come to my attention that
during the month of February, you were a NO SHOW for
Chemical Warfare training. This was a scheduled appointment that you had been
briefed about
and were aware of.
2. You are hereby reprimanded. You have engaged in aberrant behavior which
will not be
tolerated from a member of the United States Air Force. Your past behavior has
raised serious
questions about your ability to remain in the United States Air Force. Your
failure to attend this
scheduled appointment is a violation of Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ),
Article 86,
Absence without Leave. Military members are expected to be at every appointment
on time. I
assure you many airmen have been given Article 15’s and court-martialed for
similar
misconduct. This unit, this wing, and indeed, the entire Air Force cannot
function when
members become undependable. Any future incidents of this nature will bring
stronger
administrative or punitive actions.
