RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
Qjsby 1 3 19%
IN THE MATTER OF:
DOCKET NO: 98-00676
COUNSEL : None
HEARING DESIRED: No
Applicant requests his reenlistment eligibility (RE) code 2C
(Involunarily separated under AFR 39-10 with an honorable
discharge or entry level separation without characterization of
service) be changed to RE-1 which would allow him to join the
U.S. Navy. Applicant's submission is at Exhibit A.
The appropriate Air Force offices evaluated applicant's request
and provided advisory opinions to the Board recommending the
application be denied (Exhibit C). The advisory opinions were
forwarded to the applicant for review and response (Exhibit D).
As of this date, no response has been received by this office.
After careful consideration of applicant's request and the
available evidence of record, we find insufficient evidence of
error or injustice to warrant corrective action. The facts and
opinions stated in the advisory opinion appear to be based on the
evidence of record and have not been rebutted by applicant.
Absent persuasive evidence applicant was denied rights to which
entitled, appropriate regulations were not followed, or
appropriate standards were not applied, we find no basis to
disturb the existing record.
Accordingly, applicant's request is denied.
The Board staff is directed to inform applicant of this decision.
Applicant should also be informed that this decision is final and
will only be reconsidered upon the presentation of new relevant
evidence which was not reasonably available at the time the
application was filed.
Members of the Board Mr. Vaughn E. Schlunz, Mr. Richard A.
Peterson, and Mr. Patrick R. Wheeler considered this application
on 29 September 1998 in accordance with the provisions of Air
Force Instruction 36-2603 and the governing statute, 10 U.S.C.
1552.

MEMORANDUM FOR AFBCMR

1535 Command Drive, EE Wing, 3rd Floor
Andrews AFB MD 20762-7002
SUBJECT: Application for Correction of Military Records
Applicant’s entire case file has been reviewed and is forwarded with the following findings,
conclusions and recommendations.
REQUESTED ACTION: The applicant requests a change in his reenlistment code from 2C
to RE-I to allow him to enter the Navy.
FACTS: The applicant received an entry level separation for fraudulent enlistment on 14
August 1991, which reason was later changed to Erroneous Enlistment on appeal to the Air
Force Discharge Review Board (AFDRB) on 14 February 1992. The separation came about
because of the applicant’s failure to complete basic training requirements at which time his past
history of treatment for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder was revealed. Although
treatment had apparently stopped some 3 years before the applicant came on active duty, his
examining psychiatrist at Lackland AFB felt his failure to integrate into the military role likely
was a residual effect of this disorder.
DISCUSSION: Although the AFDRB concluded that there was no fraud involved in the
applicant’s entry to the Air Force (with an appropriate separation program designator code
change being made), the reenlistment code was proper for the entry level uncharacterized
service rendered, and cannot be changed as the applicant requests. The fact remains that he
was separated within the first 6 months of entry, a situation calling for such a reentry code
under directives that implement the law.
RECOMMENDATION: The BCMR Medical Consultant is of the opinion that no change in
the records is warranted and the application should be denied.

We conducted a review of applicant’s case file. The Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) Code
“2C” is correct. The type of discharge drove assignment of the RE code.
