IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 02-00166
INDEX NUMBER: 100.03
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
___________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His reenlistment eligibility (RE) code be changed in order for him
to reenlist 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:
On 2 July 1996, the applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force in
the grade of airman basic. He was promoted to the grade of airman
(Amn/E-2), with an effective date and date of rank of
2 January 1997. Applicant’s grade at time of discharge was airman
(Amn/E-2).
On 3 June 1997, the applicant was discharged by reason of
misconduct and issued reenlistment eligibility (RE) code 2B. The
pertinent facts surrounding his discharge are contained in the Air
Discharge Review Board (AFDRB) Hearing Record at Exhibit C.
___________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
HQ AFPC/DPPRS reviewed this application and addressed the reason
for the discharge. They found that the discharge was consistent
with the procedural and substantive requirements of the discharge
regulation. Additionally, that the discharge was within the sound
discretion of the discharge authority. They also noted that the
applicant did not submit any new evidence or identify any errors or
injustices that occurred in the discharge process. Accordingly,
they recommended his records remain the same and his request be
denied (Exhibit D).
HQ AFPC/DPPAE reviewed the applicant’s case file and determined
that the reenlistment eligibility code of 2B, “separated with a
general or under other than honorable conditions (UOTHC) discharge”
is correct. They stated that on 3 June 1997, the applicant was
involuntarily separated and given a general (under honorable
conditions) characterization of service.
A complete copy of the evaluation is at Exhibit E.
___________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant
on 22 March 2002 for review and comment within 30 days. As of this
date, no response has been received by this office (Exhibit F).
___________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing
law or regulations.
2. The application was timely filed.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice. We took notice of
the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of the
case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the
Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt their
rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has
not been the victim of an error or injustice. Therefore, in the
absence of evidence to the contrary, we find 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 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.
