             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  93-01309
            INDEX CODE:  112.00

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  YES

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

In the applicant’s request for reconsideration, he requests  that  his
Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code be changed.

________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant was discharged with an  honorable  discharge  on      15
January 1990 because of expiration of term of service.  An  RE-2X  was
assigned (First-term, second-term, or career airman considered but not
selected  for  reenlistment  under  the  SRP  (Selective  Reenlistment
Program)).  At the time of his separation,  he  was  credited  with  6
years of active duty service.

On 1 October 1993,  the  applicant’s  request  that  his  RE  code  be
upgraded was  considered  and  denied  by  the  Air  Force  Board  for
Correction of Military Records.  See  the  Record  of  Proceedings  at
Exhibit C.

On 5 May 2002, the applicant submitted a request for  reconsideration,
contending that  his  military  record  was  impeccable  prior  to  an
accident with a government vehicle.  To support  this  assertion,  the
applicant provided a personal statement, two character references  and
copies  of  his  performance  reports.    The   applicant’s   complete
submission is at Exhibit D.

________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

Sufficient relevant evidence has been  presented  to  demonstrate  the
existence of probable error or injustice warranting a  change  in  the
applicant’s RE code.  While we can detect no error in the  applicant’s
current RE code, we believe a change to the code would be  appropriate
based on  the  following  considerations.   The  applicant’s  military
record was impeccable prior to the incident that led to  the  vacation
of his NCO status and his nonselection  for  reenlistment.   With  the
exception of this isolated incident, he served honorably and well  for
a total of six years.  Because this episode  occurred  shortly  before
the expiration of  his  term  of  enlistment,  he  did  not  have  the
opportunity  to  regain  his  status  as  an  NCO  and   reverse   his
ineligibility  to  reenlist.   In  view  of  the   totality   of   the
circumstances of this case and the character  references  provided  by
the applicant, we believe  his  continued  ineligibility  to  reenlist
constitutes  an  injustice  and  that  he  should  be   afforded   the
opportunity to reenlist in the armed services.  Whether or not  he  is
successful  will  depend  on  the  needs  of  the  service   and   our
recommendation in no way guarantees that he will be allowed to  return
to the Air  Force  or  any  branch  of  the  service.   Therefore,  we
recommend that applicant’s record be corrected to reflect an  RE  code
of “1J” (eligible to reenlist but elects separation).

________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:

The pertinent military records of the  Department  of  the  Air  Force
relating to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that at the  time  of  his
discharge on 15 January 1990, he was issued a Reenlistment Eligibility
(RE) code of “1J.”
