                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  00-01796

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO


_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code be changed from a 2B to a  code  that
would allow him to enlist into the Army Reserves as a Military Chaplain.

_________________________________________________________________

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  Directorate  of  Personnel  Program  Management,  AFPC/DPPRS,  and  the
Special  Activities  Branch,  AFPC/DPPAES,  reviewed  the  application   and
recommend denial (Exhibits C and D).

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were  forwarded  to  the  applicant  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 not timely filed; however, it is in the interest  of
justice to excuse the failure to timely file.

3.    Sufficient relevant evidence has been  presented  to  demonstrate  the
existence of probable error or injustice.   While the RE  code  assigned  to
the applicant, at the time, was technically correct and in  accordance  with
regulation, we believe it  would  be  an  injustice  for  the  applicant  to
continue to suffer its effects in the way  of  enlistment  opportunities  in
the armed forces.  In our opinion, the incident that led  to  his  discharge
and the assignment of a 2X RE code was an isolated incident.  We  note  that
since his discharge, the applicant  has  become  an  ordained  minister  and
wishes to enlist in the Army Reserve as a Military Chaplain and  we  believe
that  he  should  be  given  the  opportunity  to  apply   for   enlistment.
Therefore, we recommend that the RE code of 2X be  changed  to  3K,  a  code
that can be waived for prior service enlistment consideration.   We  believe
this action affords the applicant fitting and proper  relief  based  on  the
evidence presented and the facts of the case.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air  Force  relating
to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that on 31 Dec 81 he was separated  under
the provisions of AFI 36-3208, paragraph 1.2 (Secretarial Authority) with  a
separation code of JFK and a reenlistment eligibility (RE) code of 3K.
