IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-00067 

 INDEX CODE: 100.03, 100.05 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His reentry (RE) code of “2X” (Denied Reenlistment) be changed to 
one that will allow him to reenter the military. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He served his country honorably for over eight years and would 
like the opportunity to enlist in the Army Reserves. He was 
allowed to separate in 2007 under the FY07 Rollback Program due 
to having received an Article 15 which gave him an RE Code of 
“4H” (Serving suspended punishment pursuant to Article 15). Had 
he been allowed to complete his term of enlistment through 2012 
his RE Code of “4H” would have expired. While serving in the Air 
Force he had all but one “5” Enlisted Performance Reports (EPRs). 
He was selected as one of 50 Air Force personnel to complete the 
Army Interrogation School and later deployed to Iraq for a year 
using his newly acquired skill. 

 

His complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant enlisted into the Regular Air Force on 3 Mar 99 and 
was progressively promoted to the grade of senior airman (E-4), 
having assumed that grade effective and with a date of rank of 
17 Jan 07. The applicant was involuntarily separated under the 
FY07 Rollback Program. He received $10,314.00 in separation pay 
and received a “2X” RE Code. 

 

According to his AF IMT 475, Education and Training Report, dated 
15 Dec 05, he failed to return to training for the Enhanced 
Analysis Interrogator Training Course; was in an unauthorized 
leave status; and did not deploy due to not meeting deployment 
standards. 

 

 

 


The applicant received an Article 15 on 17 Jan 07 for being 
derelict in the performance of his duties when he failed to limit 
the use of his government travel card to official business and 
for committing adultery. 

 

The applicant received an honorable discharge on 1 Aug 07 after 
serving 8 years, 4 months, and 29 days on active duty.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSOS recommends denial. DPSOS states the applicant was 
non-selected for reenlistment by his commander on 15 Mar 07 which 
established an RE Code of “2X”. The Rollback Program utilizes 
the Separation Program Designation (SPD) of “LBK”, more than 6 
years of active service, with a corresponding narrative reason 
for separation of “Completion of Required Active Service” since 
the member is denied further continuation or reenlistment and as 
in the applicant’s case; the DOS/ETS may be involuntary 
accelerated. Members holding the “2X”, along with other RE 
Codes, were subject to discharge under the rollback program. 

 

The DPSOS complete evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit C. 

 

AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial. DPSOA states the applicant could 
not have volunteered to separate under the FY07 Rollback Program 
because the program is involuntary. The applicant received 
separation pay based on being in an involuntary separation 
status. The applicant states he was one of the first “50” 
members to volunteer to complete the Army Interrogation School 
and deploy to Iraq to use the skill learned; however, he did not 
complete the program and was in an unauthorized leave status, and 
he did not deploy. He received an RE Code of “2X” as a result of 
his commander’s decision under the SRP not his Article 15. 

 

The DPSOA complete evaluation is at Exhibit D.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the 
applicant on 9 Jul 10 for review and comment within 30 days. As 
of this date, this office has received no response. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 

 

1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing 
law or regulations. 

 


2. The application was timely filed. 

 

3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice. The 
applicant’s contentions are duly noted; however, we are not 
persuaded that he has been the victim of an error or injustice. 
At the time members are separated from the Air Force, they are 
furnished an RE code predicated upon the quality of their service 
and circumstances of their separation. After a thorough review of 
the evidence of record, we find that given the circumstances 
surrounding the applicant’s separation, the RE code issued was in 
accordance with the appropriate directives. Therefore, we find no 
basis upon which to recommend favorable action on this 
application. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT: 

 

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that the 
application was denied without a personal appearance; and that the 
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of newly 
discovered relevant evidence not considered with this application.
