After reenlisting, he served two more years without incident and attained the rank of Staff Sergeant, E-5. During his last year of service he received an Article 15 for dereliction of duty and was honorably discharged under the DOS rollback system. He believes wholeheartedly that he can be an asset to the Air National Guard and therefore, requests he be granted a reentry code that allows him the opportunity to continue serving this great nation. The applicant did not provide any documents in support of his request. The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A. ________________________________________________________________ STATEMENT OF FACTS: The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 6 July 2004 and was released from active duty on 31 May 2011 with an honorable character of service and was credited with 6 years, 10 months, and 25 days of active duty service. The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application extracted from the applicant’s military personnel records are contained in the letter prepared by the appropriate Air Force office of primary responsibility at Exhibit C. ______________________________________________________________ AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 1. AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial. DPSOA states the applicant was discharged on 31 May 2011 under the FY11 Air Force (AF) Force Shaping Rollback Program with an honorable character of service and was authorized severance pay. The applicant's commander made a conscious decision to separate him under the Rollback guidance by non-selecting him for reenlistment; meaning he had to be separated and could not have stayed in the AF. His commander non-selected him on an AF IMT 4I8, Selective Reenlistment Program Consideration, on 10 February 2011 and the applicant acknowledged his non-selection and rendered his intent to appeal the decision on 24 February 2011. 2. AFI 36-2606, Reenlistment in the USAF, states commanders have selective reenlistment selection or non-selection authority. The Selective Reenlistment Program (SRP) considers the members Enlisted Performance Report (EPR) ratings, unfavorable information from any substantiated source, the airman's willingness to comply with Air Force standards and/or the airman's ability (or lack of) to meet required training and duty performance levels. The applicant did not provide any proof of an error or injustice in reference to his RE code and his non-selection was in accordance with current guidance. The applicant stated he had one Article 15 for dereliction of duty, however, his commander cited a Letter of Reprimand (LOR), for criminal mischief, LOR for falsifying an official document, and two Article 15s (30 July 2010) and (4 October 2010) for dereliction of duties. The applicant's non-selection for reenlistment is the result of his own pattern of misconduct. The complete AFPC/DPSOA evaluation is at Exhibit C. ________________________________________________________________ APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 19 April 2013 for review and comment within 30 days.
