_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

Applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force  on  17  February  1981  in  the
grade of airman basic for a period of 4 years.

He was a first-term airman who was considered and denied reenlistment  under
the Selective Reenlistment Program (SRP) and denied promotion to E-4.

On 18 June 1984, the applicant’s commander signed an AF Form 418,  Selective
Reenlistment/Noncommissioned   Officer   Status    Consideration,    denying
promotion and reenlistment.

The applicant received an RE code of “2X” (First-term airman considered  but
not selected under SRP, or has been denied appointment  to  NCO  status,  or
has had NCO status vacated).







A resume of the applicant's performance reports since 1983 follows:

            PERIOD ENDING         OVERALL EVALUATION

             23 Feb 83    Letter of Evaluation (LOE)
                 6 Nov 83               5
             30 Mar 84            7
             11 Feb 85            8

Applicant was honorably discharged on 16 February  1985,  in  the  grade  of
A1C, in accordance with AFR 39-10 (Expiration Term Of Service).   He  served
a total of 4 years.

Pursuant to the  Board’s  request,  the  Federal  Bureau  of  investigation,
Washington, D.C., indicated on the basis of the  data  furnished  they  were
unable to locate an arrest record (Exhibit C).

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

The  Chief,  Skills  Management  Branch,  Directorate,   Personnel   Program
Management, HQ AFPC/DPPAE, reviewed this application and  states  that  they
recommend applicant’s request be denied.  The  commander’s  action  to  deny
reenlistment  and  promotion  was  justified.   The  commander  states   his
decision was based on the applicant’s “immaturity and  slow  progression  of
training…coded ineligible to reenter the active or  reserve  armed  forces…”
and that his decision was “…prudent, in no-way in error;  and  in  the  best
interest of the Air Force…”  The applicant has not satisfactorily  indicated
the commander’s action to deny reenlistment  was  inappropriate  or  not  in
compliance with Air Force policy.  However, if the decision is to grant  the
relief sought, applicant’s record should be corrected to reflect an RE  code
of 3K, “Reserved for use by HQ AFPC or the Air Force  Board  for  Correction
of Military Records (AFBCMR) when no  other  reenlistment  eligibility  code
applies or is appropriate.”

A complete copy of the Air Force evaluation is attached at Exhibit D.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

On 19 January 2001 a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded  to  the
applicant for review and response within thirty (30) days (Exhibit  E).   As
of this date, no response has been received by this office.

In response to the  Board’s  request  for  post-service  documentation,  the
applicant has  submitted  additional  documentation  which  is  attached  at
Exhibit F.

_________________________________________________________________

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.    Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to  demonstrate  the
existence  of  probable  error  or  injustice.   We  took  notice   of   the
applicant's  complete  submission  in  judging  the  merits  of  the   case;
therefore, the Board agrees with the opinion and recommendation of  the  Air
Force and adopt their rationale as the basis for  our  conclusion  that  the
applicant has not been the victim of an error or  injustice.   The  RE  code
issued at the time of separation  was  in  accordance  with  the  applicable
regulations.  The RE code “2X” is  used  for  “First-term,  second-term,  or
career airmen  considered  but  not  selected  for  reenlistment  under  the
Selective Reenlistment Program (SRP).”  A review of the applicant’s  overall
duty performance while on active  duty  would  appear  to  substantiate  the
reason he was not selected for reenlistment.  Therefore, in the  absence  of
evidence to the contrary, the Board finds no compelling basis  to  recommend
granting the relief sought in this application.

_________________________________________________________________

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.
