RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 01-01710
INDEX CODE: 100.3
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
___________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His reenlistment eligibility (RE) code “2C” be changed so he can enlist in
the Air National Guard.
___________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was unable to pass the Security Police weapons training while in
technical school. Being a security policeman was all he ever wanted to do.
He feels that it was an error for him to be coded so that he could not try
again in the Air National Guard. He was never in any trouble throughout
boot camp; he just couldn’t pass the weapons training.
In support of this application, he submits a personal statement, a letter
from the NYANG recruiter, character reference letters and a copy of his DD
Form 214 and other military personnel records (Exhibit A).
___________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant entered the Regular Air Force on 5 October 2000. While
serving in the grade of airman basic, he was eliminated from the Security
Police technical training course for failing three attempts at weapons
qualification. On 21 December 2000 he was separated from the Air Force
under the provisions of AFI 36-3208, Entry-Level Perfomance and Conduct,
and received an uncharacterized entry-level separation. He served 2 months
and 17 days total active service.
___________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
The Separations Branch, AFPC/DPPRS, states that the Department of Defense
(DOD) determined if a member served less than 180 days of continuous active
service, it would be unfair to the member and the service to characterize
their limited service. Therefore, the applicant’s uncharacterized
character of service is correct and in accordance with DOD and Air Force
instructions (Exhibit C).
The Skills Management Branch, AFPC/DPPAE, conducted a review of the
applicant’s case and found the Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code of 2C,
“Involuntarily separated with an honorable discharge; or entry-level
separation without characterization of service,” is correct (Exhibit 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, this office has received no
response (Exhibit E).
___________________________________________________________________
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 took note that the applicant
failed to meet the M-16 qualification score for continuance in the Security
Police career field. However, Air National Guard recruiters are of the
opinion he would be suited for other positions within the reserves. The
applicant has expressed a desire to enlist into the Air National Guard and
we believe he should be given the opportunity to apply for enlistment.
Therefore, we recommend the applicant's records be corrected to the extent
indicated below.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:
The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force relating
to APPLICANT be corrected to show that his reenlistment eligibility (RE)
code, issued in conjunction with his entry level separation on 21 December
2000 was “3K.”
