RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 
 
 
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-1996-03760 
  INDEX CODE:  110.02 
   COUNSEL:  NONE  
  HEARING DESIRED: YES 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 
 
His reentry (RE) code of “3B” (first-term, second-term or career airman who was ineligible to reenlist, the ineligible condition no longer exists, and the airman requires Selective Reenlistment Program consideration or reconsideration; AF Form 418, Selective Reenlistment Program Consideration, is required; Don’t separate airmen with this RE code) be changed to allow him reentry into military service. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
STATEMENT OF FACTS: 
 
On 6 May 97, the Board considered a similar appeal and granted the applicant’s request to change his RE code to “3B.”  For an accounting of the facts and the rationale of the earlier decision by the Board, see the Record of Proceedings at Exhibit E.  
 
In his current submission, he states that he was advised by his recruiter that his package for Officer Training School (OTS) could not be submitted because the waiver for his RE code was denied.  He further states that at the time, he had completed all the necessary requirements, to include achieving competitive Air Force Officer Qualification Test (AFOQT) scores, physical exam, essay, and letters of recommendations. 
 
The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit F. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 
 
1.  The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing law or regulations. 
 
2.  The application was timely filed. 
 
3.  Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the existence of error or injustice.  Based on the evidence provided, it appears the Board’s previous correction in 1997 of the applicant’s record, changing his reentry code from “2I” to “3B” failed to provide the intended relief.  Additionally, we note that under Air Force policy at the time, a “3B” code was not to be assigned at the time of the member’s discharge, which in effect the previous correction did.  Therefore, under the circumstances of the applicant’s discharge, it appears the more appropriate code would be “3K” and we recommend his records be corrected as indicated below. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT: 
 
The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force relating to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that his reentry code issued in conjunction with his honorable discharge on 27 July 1996 was “3K.” 
 
_________________________________________________________________

    The supervisor stated that he was unable to select the applicant for reenlistment at the time because the applicant had not demonstrated the desire or capability to accept the additional duties and responsibilities required of a career airman in today’s Air Force. The evidence of record indicates that the applicant was not selected for reenlistment in the Air Force. Furthermore, it now seems that the applicant has the motivation and the desire to commit himself to the service of his country.

    In support of his appeal, applicant submitted two letters of recommendation from the commander of the Air Force Band of the Golden West and the commander of the Air Force Band of Mid-America.

Therefore, as a matter of clemency, we recommend that the applicant’s RE Code be changed to “3K.” This is a code that can be waived...
