                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  87-00353
            INDEX NUMBER:  100.03

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) Code of 2X be upgraded.

EXAMINER’S NOTE:  RE-2X denotes considered  but  not  selected  for
reenlistment under the Selective Reenlistment Program.

___________________________________________________________________

RESUME OF CASE:

On 15 May 1987, the AFBCMR considered and denied a  similar  appeal
submitted by the applicant requesting that his RE  Code  of  2X  be
changed to a 1X and that his DD Form 214,  Certificate  of  Release
from Active Duty, be changed  to  reflect  the  grade  of  sergeant
rather than senior airman (Exhibits A through E).

On 2  April  1999,  the  applicant  submitted  another  application
requesting that his RE Code be upgraded and provided  a  Report  of
Medical Examination in support  of  his  appeal  (Exhibit  F).   On
11 May 1999, he was advised that  the  current  Report  of  Medical
Examination did not pertain to the  issues  cited  in  his  initial
application requesting his RE Code  be  upgraded.   Therefore,  his
request did not meet the criteria for reconsideration (Exhibit G).

By letter dated 9 June 1999, applicant requested an upgrade of  his
RE  Code  on  the  basis  of  clemency.   He  provided   additional
documentation in the form of three letters of  character  reference
from his pastor, a co-worker, and an acquaintance, as well as  four
Airman Performance  Reports  (APRs)  and  letters  of  appreciation
received while he was in the service, and two certificates (Exhibit
H).

Pursuant  to  the  Board’s   request,   the   Federal   Bureau   of
Investigation,  Clarksburg,  WV,  provided  a  copy   of   an   FBI
Identification  Record  pertaining  to  the  applicant,  which   is
attached at Exhibit I.

___________________________________________________________________


THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

In its initial review of this case, the Board noted the absence  of
an AF  Form  418,  Selective  Reenlistment/Noncommissioned  Officer
Status Consideration, from the applicant’s records.  Therefore, the
facts  surrounding  the  denial  of  reenlistment  eligibility  are
unknown.  Nevertheless, based on the presumption of  regularity  in
the conduct of governmental affairs and  without  evidence  to  the
contrary, we must assume that the RE code assigned at the  time  of
the applicant’s separation was proper and in  compliance  with  the
governing regulation.  We  have  noted  the  letters  of  character
reference provided in the applicant’s behalf.  However, in view  of
the  very  limited  documentation  pertaining  to  the  denial   of
reenlistment  action,  as  well  as  the  contents   of   the   FBI
Identification Record (Exhibit I), we  are  not  persuaded  that  a
change to the applicant’s RE Code is  warranted  on  the  basis  of
clemency.  In view of the foregoing, we therefore conclude that  no
basis exists to change the Board’s previous decision  to  deny  the
applicant’s request.

___________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified  that  the  evidence  presented  did  not
demonstrate the existence of probable 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.

___________________________________________________________________

The following members of the Board considered this  application  in
Executive Session on 2 and 24 September 1999, under the  provisions
of AFI 36-2603:

      Mr. Terry A. Yonkers, Panel Chair
      Mr. Joseph A. Roj, Member
      Dr. Gerald B. Kauvar, Member

The following additional documentary evidence was considered:

    Exhibit F.  DD Form 149, dated 2 Apr 99, w/atch.
    Exhibit G.  Letter, AFBCMR, dated 11 May 99.
    Exhibit H.  Letter from Applicant, dated 9 Jun 99, w/atchs.
    Exhibit I.  FBI Identification Record.




                                   TERRY A. YONKERS
                                  Panel Chair
