AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

IN THE MATTER OF: 

DOCKET NO:  98-01584 

COUNSEL:  NONE 
HEARING DESIRED:  NO 

auv  3  3 

- 

Applicant requests that his Reenlistment Eligibility  (RE) code be 
changed.  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 opinions 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  n o t  
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,  Ms.  Charlene  M.  Bradley,  Mr.  Joseph  G. 
Diamond, and Mr. Terry A. Yonkers considered this application on 
10 November 1998, in accordance with the provisions of Air Force 
Instruction 36-2603, and the governing statute, 10 U.S.C.  1552.

MEMORANDUM FOR AFBCMR 

FROM:  HQ AFPC/DPPRS 

550 C Street West Ste 1 1  
Randolph AFB TX  78 150-47 13 

The applicant, while serving in the grade of airman basic, was separated fiom the 

Air Force 03 Apr 98 under the provisions of AFI 36-3208 (Entry level Performance and Conduct) 
with an uncharacterized discharge. He served 02 months and 05 days total active service. 

Requested Action.  The applicant is requesting his reentry code be changed fiom 

2C to 1C so he can enlist in the Navy. 

Basis for Request.  Applicant states his offenses were minor in nature, he was 
never court-martial.  He believes it is conceivable that the person who typed his DD Form 214 
made an error typing 2C instead of 1C. 

Facts.  The applicant was notified by his commander on 12 Mar 98 that discharge 
action had been initiated against him for unsatisfactory entry level performance or conduct.  The 
commander indicated his action was being recommended because of applicant’s failure to adapt to 
the military environment, failure to make satisfactory progress in a required training program, 
reluctance to make an effort necessary to meet Air Force standards of conduct and duty 
performance, his lack of self-discipline and minor disciplinary infractions as indicated by a Letter 
of Reprimand dated 24 Feb 98..  The commander advised applicant that if his recommendation is 
approved, that his discharge would be described as entry level separation and that he would be 
ineligible for reenlistment in the Air Force.  He was advised he had a right to consult counsel and 
the right to submit statements in his own behalf.  He consulted counsel and submitted a statements 
in his own behalf requesting retention in the Air Force.  On 02 Apr 98, the discharge authority 
approved  the Entry Level Separation.  Airmen are given entry level separatioduncharacterized 
service characterization when separation action is initiated against them in the fim  180 days of 
continuous active service. 

Discussion.  This case has been reviewed for separation processing and there are 

no errors or irregularities causing an injustice to the applicant.  The discharge complies with 
directives in effect at the time of his discharge.  The records indicate member’s military service 
was reviewed and appropriate action was taken. 

Recommendation. Applicant did not identifjl any specific errors in the discharge 
processing nor provide facts which warrant a change in the discharge he received.  Accordingly, 
we recommend applicant’s request be denied.  He has filed a timely request.

550 C Street West Ste 10

We conducted a review of applicant’s case file.  The Reenlistment Eligibility (N3) 

Code “2C” is correct.  The type of discharge drove assignment of the RE code.
