RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 02-01247
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) Code of 2C be changed to 3K.
_________________________________________________________________
THE APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
There was too much pressure on him to pass his Career Development Course
(CDC) examination and he was forced to take the examination before he was
ready.
The applicant states that after his first test failure, some discrepancies
on the test were found. Approximately one month after his first failure,
he was ready to retest; however, the test was still being corrected.
During the wait he and his superiors grew impatient. Without sufficient
notice, the test was ready and he was retested, although he was not
prepared to do so.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The facts surrounding the applicant’s discharge from the Air Force are
unknown inasmuch as the discharge correspondence is not available. 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. He was credited with 2 years, 7 months, and 23 days of active
Federal service.
The record contains one Enlisted Performance Report with an overall rating
of four.
The highest grade the applicant held while on active duty was airman first
class.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPAE states, in part, that the RE Code of 2C, “Involuntarily
separated with an honorable discharge; or entry level separation without
characterization of service” is correct.
The AFPC/DPPAE evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT’S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A complete copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant
on 7 June 2002 for review and response within 30 days. However, 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 file.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the
existence of error or injustice to warrant upgrading his RE Code. In this
respect, we note that the facts surrounding the applicant’s discharge from
the Air Force are unknown inasmuch as the discharge correspondence is not
available. However, 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. The available records also contain one Enlisted Performance
Report with an overall rating of four. In view of this, and given the
presumption of regularity in the implementation of governmental affairs, we
are not persuaded that his discharge was improper or that the assigned RE
code reflecting his involuntary separation was in error or unjust. 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.
