RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 02-01768
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her reenlistment eligibility (RE) code be changed from 2C to 1J so
that she may reenlist in the military.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She was unjustly released from active duty. At the time she was
released, she took her end of course exams twice and failed both times
due to working 12 hour days and suffering a miscarriage. She improved
on the 2nd exam but her acting chief had something personal against
her and wanted her out of the Air Force. She knew her job, paperwork
and text but she had a hard time taking written tests. If she could
have taken the test verbally, she would have passed.
In support of the applicant’s appeal, she submits a copy of DD Form
214, Certificate of Release or Discharge From Active Duty.
Applicant’s complete submission, with an attachment, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force as an airman basic on
7 July 1987 for a term of 4 years. The applicant was discharged for
unsatisfactory performance with service characterized as honorable on
11 January 1989 in the grade of airman first class. She served 1
year, 6 months and 5 days of active service.
On 3 August 1988 and 12 October 1988, the applicant failed her End of
Course Examinations. The squadron section commander had taken steps
to assist the member in order to pass her CDC's. She was provided a
trainer, was given a closed book VRE test prior to course exam retake,
and had passed it. On 10 November 1988, the member was removed from
formal upgrade training due to her second failure of the course exam.
On 5 December 1988, the applicant's commander notified her that she
was being discharge for unsatisfactory duty performance with a 2C RE
code.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPRS recommends denial. The applicant did not submit any new
evidence or identify any errors or injustices that occurred in the
discharge processing. She provided no other facts warranting a change
in her discharge. She has not filed a timely request.
AFPC/DPPRS evaluation is at Exhibit C.
AFPC/DPPAE stated the applicant's Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code
of 2C, "Involuntarily separated with an honorable discharge; or entry
level separation without characterization of service" is correct.
AFPC/DPPAE evaluation is at Exhibit D.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Complete copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the
applicant on 16 Aug 02, 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 an 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
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. Other than her own assertions, the applicant
has provided no evidence to substantiate her contention of being
unjustly released from active duty. 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 probable 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.

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.
The RE code of 2C, “Involuntarily separated with an honorable discharge; or entry level separation without characterization of service” is correct. After reviewing the applicant’s submission and the evidence of record, we are persuaded that some relief is warranted. ROSCOE HINTON, JR.
