RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 02-00284
INDEX CODE: 110.00
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His reenlistment eligibility (RE) code of 2C be changed to allow
eligibility to reentry the military.
_________________________________________________________________
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.
The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant contracted his enlistment in the Regular Air Force on 24 Jul
01 for a period of 4 years.
On 15 Aug 01, the applicant received notification that he was being
recommended for discharge for fraudulent entry. He received an
uncharacterized entry level separation on 21 Aug 01 under the
provisions of AFI 36-3208 (fraudulent entry into military service).
Applicant received an RE Code of 2C, which defined means "Involuntary
separation with an honorable discharge; or entry level separation
without characterization of service."
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application, extracted
from the applicant’s military records, are contained in the letters
prepared by the appropriate offices of the Air Force at Exhibits C and
D.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
HQ AFPC/DPPRS stated that, on 15 Aug 01, the applicant was notified by
his commander that he was being discharged for fraudulent entry. The
applicant failed to indicate on his SF 93, Report of Medical History,
that he had a history of mental health treatment. DPPRS indicated
that airmen are given entry level separation/uncharacterized service
characterization when separation is initiated in the first 180 days of
continuous active service. The applicant’s uncharacterized character
of service is correct and in accordance with Department of Defense and
Air Force instructions. An entry level/uncharacterized separation
should not be viewed as negative and should not be confused with other
types of separation. The HQ AFPC/DPPRS evaluation is at Exhibit C.
HQ AFPC/DPPAE stated that the applicant was discharged on 21 Aug 01,
after serving 28 days of active service. The RE code of 2C is
correct. The HQ AFPC/DPPAE evaluation is at Exhibit D.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to applicant on 21
June 2002 for review and response. As of this date, no response has
been received by this office (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. 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
respective Air Force offices and adopt their rationale as the basis
for our conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an
error or injustice. Therefore, absent sufficient 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.
