RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 00-02589
INDEX NUMBER:110.02
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His entry-level separation be upgraded to an honorable discharge, his
reason for separation be changed to “convenience of the government”
and his reenlistment eligibility (RE) code be changed to an RE code 1,
with a corresponding separation program designator (SPD).
_________________________________________________________________
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 are 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 Separations Branch, HQ AFPC/DPPRS, reviewed this application and
recommended denial. A complete copy of the evaluation is at Exhibit
C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on
27 Oct 00 for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D). 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. We found no evidence that
responsible officials applied inappropriate standards in effecting the
applicant’s discharge, that pertinent regulations were violated or
that the applicant was not afforded all the rights to which entitled
at the time of discharge. Therefore, we do not believe favorable
consideration of the applicant’s stated requests would be appropriate
on the basis of the evidence provided. Nevertheless, we believe that
there may have been mitigating circumstances that affected the
applicant’s performance while in basic training. In this regard, it
appears that the applicant was led to believe that he would be
performing duty in a field other than the one he was guaranteed at the
time of enlistment; i.e., radio and television broadcasting. In view
of this, and noting how well he has adapted to civilian life, we
believe some form of relief is warranted. We therefore recommend that
the narrative reason for his separation and corresponding separation
code be changed to reflect “Secretarial Authority.” We further
recommend that his Reenlistment Eligibility Code be changed to “3K,”
which is a code that can be waived for prior service enlistment
consideration, provided he is otherwise qualified for enlistment under
an existing prior service program. We believe these actions provide
the applicant fitting and proper relief.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:
The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force
relating to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that on
12 January 1994, he received an entry level separation under the
provisions of AFR 39-10, (Secretarial Authority), with Separation
Program Designator (SPD) code “KFF,” and Reenlistment Eligibility
(RE) code “3K.”
