IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 98-03381
INDEX CODE: 110.00
COUNSEL: None
HEARING DESIRED: No
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, DD Form 214,
be corrected as follows: Block 6 should read 5 August 1999 and Block
26 should read LCC.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
The reasons the applicant believes the records to be in error or
unjust and the evidence submitted in support of the appeal is at
Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The relevant facts pertaining to this application, extracted from the
applicant's military records, are contained in the letter prepared by
the appropriate office of the Air Force. Accordingly, there is no
need to recite these facts in this Record of Proceedings.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
The Mil Personnel Mgt Spcl, Separations Branch, Dir of Personnel
Program Mgt, AFPC/DPPRS, reviewed the application and states that Item
6 of the DD Form 214 is correct and does not need changed since
applicant had completed his Military Service Obligation (MSO) and did
not enlist in the Ready Reserve until the day following his release
from active duty. Item 26 of the DD Form 214 should be corrected to
read “LCC” and item 28 corrected to read “Reduction in Force.”
A complete copy of the Air Force evaluation is attached at Exhibit C.
The Special Programs and BCMR Manager, Dir of Personnel Program
Management, AFPC/DPPAES, reviewed the application and states that the
reenlistment eligibility (RE) code “4D” indicates grade is senior
airman or sergeant, completed at least 9 years TAFMS, but fewer than
16 years TAFMS, and has not been selected for promotion to staff
sergeant. The applicant’s RE code is correct.
A complete copy of the Air Force evaluation is attached at Exhibit D.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A complete copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the
applicant on 29 March 1999, for review and response. As of this date,
no response has been received by this office.
_________________________________________________________________
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 probable error or injustice warranting amending items
6 and 28 on DD Form 214. The Air Force states that item 26 of the DD
Form 214 should be corrected to read “LCC” and item 28 corrected to
read “Reduction in Force.” Therefore, we recommend his record be
corrected to the extent indicated below. In regard to the applicant’s
request to amend item 6 of the DD Form 214 to read 5 Aug 99, the Air
Force states that the applicant had completed his MSO and did not
enlist in the Ready Reserve until the day following his release from
active duty. In view of the above, and in the absence of evidence to
the contrary, we find no basis upon which to recommend favorable
action on this portion of his application.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:
The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force
relating to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that his DD Form 214,
Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, be amended in
block 26, Separation Code, to read “LCC” and block 28, Narrative
Reason for Separation, to read “Reduction in Force.”

He was promoted to the grade of master sergeant (E-7) with a date of rank and effective date of 1 March 1993.

(Exhibit C) The Separations Branch, AFPC/DPPRS, reviewed this application and recommended denial, stating the applicant did not submit any new evidence or identify any errors in the discharge processing nor provide facts, which support a change in the separation reason and reenlistment code she received.

On 27 October 1997, the Air Force Discharge Review Board (AFDRB) considered and denied an application submitted by the applicant requesting that the reason for discharge be changed. After a thorough review of the available records, we found no evidence that the narrative reason for discharge or the RE Code assigned at the time of applicant’s separation were in error. Accordingly, we recommend that the records be corrected as indicated below.

Accordingly, they recommend that his separation code and narrative reason for separation be changed to “JFF - Secretarial Authority.” Airmen are given entry level separation/uncharacterized service characterization when separation is initiated in the first 180 days of continuous active service. However, since the governing directives do not provide for a narrative reason of “adjustment disorder,” we recommend that the reason for separation be changed to “Secretarial Authority,” with a...
