AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 02-00444
INDEX CODE 100.06
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code be changed to allow her enlistment
in the Armed Forces.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Prior to her discharge, she was not performing well on her Career
Development Course (CDC) due to the birth of her child while a single
parent, and given her immaturity at the time, she requested separation.
The applicant states that she is now ready, prepared, and stable enough to
adjust to military life.
The applicant’s complete response, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 16 January 1997 for a
period of four years, at the age of 19.
The applicant was notified by her commander on 7 August 1998, of his intent
to recommend her for administrative discharge for unsatisfactory
performance - failure to progress in on-the-job training (OJT).
Specifically, for her second failure to achieve a minimum passing score of
65 percent on her CDC end of course test. The applicant acknowledged
receipt of the discharge notification and waived her right to consult
counsel.
The applicant was honorably discharged on 18 August 1998 under the
provisions of AFI 36-3208 (Unsatisfactory Performance) and was issued an RE
code of 4I (Serving on Control Roster).
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATIONS:
AFPC/DPPRS recommends the application be denied and states, in part, that
based on the documentation in the file, the discharge was consistent with
the procedural and substantive requirements of the discharge regulation.
Although the applicant states that she requested discharge, there is no
letter from the applicant requesting a discharge. Additionally, the
discharge was within the sound discretion of the discharge authority and
the applicant did not submit any new evidence or identify any errors or
injustices that occurred in the discharge processing. She provided no
facts warranting an upgrade of her discharge.
The AFPC/DPPRS evaluation is at Exhibit C.
AFPC/DPPAE states that the applicant was separated after serving 1 year and
7 months of active service and that the RE code of 4I (Serving on the
Control Roster) is correct.
The AFPC/DPPAE evaluation is at Exhibit D.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATIONS:
Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the applicant on 26
April 2002 for review and comment within 30 days. 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 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 error or injustice to warrant upgrading her RE Code. In this
respect, we note that the applicant’s discharge appears to be in compliance
with the governing Air Force Regulation in effect at the time of her
separation and she was afforded all the rights to which entitled.
Furthermore, she provides no evidence that her separation was
inappropriate. There being insufficient evidence to the contrary, we find
no compelling basis to recommend granting the relief sought.
_________________________________________________________________
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.

In support of her request, applicant provided DD Form 293, Application for the Review of Discharge from the Armed Forces of the United States.

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.
His DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, reflects that he was honorably discharged on 12 April 2000, under the provisions of AFI 36-3208, by reason of unsatisfactory performance, and was issued an RE Code of 2C.

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 offices 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. ...
