An Air Force lieutenant who had a child from an affair with a married superior officer has been discharged. The secretary of the Air Force granted the general discharge to 1st Lt. Crista Davis. Davis, 28, must reimburse the government about $13,000 for her Air Force Academy education because she is leaving the service early, Barksdale Air Force Base spokesman Capt. Mark Phillips said. After a disciplinary hearing in August, she was fined $2,000 and officially reprimanded for displaying conduct unbecoming an officer, lying, not following orders and being absent without leave.
