RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 97-02095
INDEX CODE: A67.90
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
Applicant requests that his general discharge be upgraded to honorable
and his reenlistment eligibility (RE) code of “2B” be changed to allow
him to reenlist in the military. Applicant's submission is at Exhibit
A.
The Air Force Discharge Review Board (AFDRB) considered and denied the
applicant’s request for upgrade of his discharge on 27 Jun 97. On 22
Mar 00, the applicant’s case was closed administratively by the AFDRB
and, in accordance with policy, the application was forwarded to this
Board for further consideration (Exhibit C). The AFDRB Brief was
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 that his general
discharge be upgraded to honorable and the available evidence of
record, we find insufficient evidence of error or injustice to warrant
corrective action. The decision of the AFDRB appears to be based on
the evidence of record and has not been rebutted by applicant.
Regarding his request that his RE code be changed, we note that
members separated from the Air Force are furnished an RE code
predicated upon the quality of their service and the circumstances of
their separation. Applicant's RE code accurately defines the
circumstances of his separation. In view of the above, and 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 applicant's case is adequately documented and it has not been
shown that a personal appearance with or without counsel will
materially add to our understanding of the issues involved.
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably considered.
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. David W. Mulgrew, Mr. Christopher Carey, and
Ms. Kathy L. Boockholdt considered this application on 27 Jun 00 in
accordance with the provisions of Air Force Instruction 36-2603 and
the governing statute, 10 U.S.C. 1552.
