                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  01-00242
            INDEX NUMBER:  110.07
            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO


_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His separation code  and  his  reenlistment  eligibility  (RE)  code  2C  be
changed to an eligible code so that he can reenlist and continue in the  Air
Force.

_________________________________________________________________

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  Special  Programs  and  AFBCMR  Manager,  HQ  AFPC/DPPAES   found   the
reenlistment eligibility code “2C” correct.

A complete copy of the evaluation is at Exhibit C.

The Separation Procedures Section, HQ AFPC/DPPRS, reviewed this  application
and recommended denial.

A complete copy of the evaluation is at Exhibit D.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to  Applicant  on  18 May
2001, 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.   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.  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  had  difficulty
concentrating which was associated with the illness of his mother.  In  view
of  this,  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 26 October 2000, he  received  an
entry level separation under the provisions of AFI 36-3208,  paragraph  1.2,
(Secretarial Authority),  with  Separation  Program  Designator  (SPD)  code
“JFF” and Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code 3K.

    She served 2 years, 2 months and 13 days of active service. The AFPC/DPPRS evaluation is at Exhibit C. AFPC/DPPAE stated that the Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code of 2C, “Involuntarily separated with an honorable discharge; or entry level separation without characterization of service” is correct. However, after reviewing the applicant’s records, the Board believes the narrative reason for separation and her current RE code are somewhat harsh.
