                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  02-03134
            INDEX CODE:  110.00
            COUNSEL:  None

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His entry level discharge be changed to general and his  Reentry  (RE)  Code
be changed to allow him to reenter service.

_________________________________________________________________

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 is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The relevant facts pertaining to his discharge are contained in  the  letter
prepared by the appropriate office of the Air Force at Exhibit C.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPRS recommends the application be  denied.   DPPRS  states  that  the
applicant’s uncharacterized character of service is correct.   DPPRS  states
that  airmen  are  given  entry-level   separation/uncharacterized   service
characterization when separation is initiated  in  the  first  180  days  of
continuous active service.  DPPRS  identified  an  error  on  his  entry  to
active duty date.  On 18 October 2002,  A  DD  Form  215  was  sent  to  the
applicant advising him of  this  discrepancy.   The  AFPC/DPPRS  evaluation,
with attachment, is at Exhibit C.

AFPC/DPPAE states 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 D.

_________________________________________________________________



APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to  the  applicant  on  3
January 2003, for review and response.  As of this  date,  this  office  has
received no response (Exhibit E).

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided  by  existing  law  or
regulations.

2.  The application timely filed.

3.    Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to  demonstrate  the
existence of error or injustice.  After thoroughly  reviewing  the  evidence
of  record,  we  find  no  impropriety  in  the  characterization   of   the
applicant's  discharge.   It  appears  that  responsible  officials  applied
appropriate standards in effecting  the  separation,  and  we  do  not  find
persuasive evidence that pertinent regulations were  violated  or  that  the
member was not afforded all the rights to which entitled at the time of  his
discharge.  The only other basis upon which to upgrade his  discharge  would
be based on clemency; however, we do not  find  the  evidence  presented  is
sufficient to establish that  the  applicant  is,  and  has  been,  in  good
standing for an extended period of  time,  thereby  providing  a  basis  for
relief on clemency.  In view of the applicant’s age and apparent  immaturity
at the time of his enlistment, we believe that should  he  continue  in  his
successful rehabilitation and provide evidence of a lengthy and  established
pattern of good behavior, the Board would be willing to again  consider  his
request.  Likewise, since we have determined favorable consideration of  the
applicant’s request for a discharge  upgrade  is  not  appropriate  at  this
time, his request for his RE Code to be changed is not possible.

___________________________________________________________________

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.

The RE code of 2C “Involuntarily separated with an honorable discharge; or entry level separation without characterization of service” is correct. However, if the Board feels administrative relief is appropriate, DPPAE recommends RE code 3K “Reserved for use by HQ AFPC or the Air Force Board for Correction of Military Records (AFBCMR)...
