Letter of Counseling Rebuttal

Responding to a Letter of Counseling

Response to Room Inspection LOC

MEMO FOR

SUBJECT: Letter of Counseling Response, A1C Shammy Wow

To whom it may concern,

My name is A1C Shammy Wow. I work as an avionics specialist and would like to address an LOC I recently received. I appreciate the opportunity to present my side of the story and would like to express my thanks for the consideration shown me by my supervisor and the squadron.

On 11 March 2010, I was suddenly awoken, unsure of who was at the door and blinded by the morning sunlight as I opened it. I asked for a moment to compose myself and to assess the situation in an informal manner. In no way was I disrespectful and spoke out as I would speak out to anyone who suddenly awoke me. In my confused state and without properly inspecting my room judgement was passed based upon a piece of garbage that was too large to fit in my trashcan and had been left by the door that morning before I fell asleep; waiting to be taken out when I awoke later that day. That alone should not have been reason to fail me on my room inspection and consideration due to the fact that the rest of the room was clean and the intention of properly disposing of this article recognized. For that reason I don't believe I should have received a Letter of Counseling.

Sincerely,

A1C Shammy Wow, USAF
