RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 02-02075
INDEX CODE:
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His record be changed to reflect a Reenlistment Code (RE) that would
enable him to reenlist in the Air Force.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
His discharge based on a personality disorder is in error.
Applicant’s appeal is located at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant entered active duty on July 21 1999. Based on his response
to a questionnaire (given to all trainees) he was referred to
Behavioral Analysis Service (BAS) for an evaluation. The results of
the evaluation were a diagnosis of Impulse-Control Disorder Not
Otherwise Specified and Alcohol Abuse.
Applicant’s commander initiated discharge action against the applicant
on 5 August 1999 for a condition that interferes with military
service, specifically for mental disorders. The reason for the
proposed action was the above-cited diagnosis. On the same date the
applicant acknowledged receipt of the discharge notification. He
waived his option to consult counsel and waived his right to submit
statements. On 6 August 1999, the discharge authority approved an
entry-level separation. On 10 August 1999, the applicant received an
uncharacterized entry-level separation under the provisions of AFI 36-
3208, by reason of Personality Disorder and was issued an RE code of
2C, (Involuntarily separated with an honorable discharge; or entry
level separation without characterization of service).
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
The BCMR Medical Consultant issued an opinion that no change was
warranted in the applicant’s record. He noted that the applicant had
been diagnosed with impulse control disorder and alcohol abuse that
were incompatible with military service. The applicant’s pattern of
behavior related to impulse and anger control had been long standing
prior to entering the service. In this case, the label of personality
disorder in the narrative reason for discharge is reasonably accurate
and appropriate. (Exhibit C)
HQ AFPC/DPPRS recommended denial stating that the discharge was
consistent with the procedural and substantive requirements of the
discharge regulation. Additionally, the applicant did not provide any
new evidence or identify any specific errors or injustices during his
discharge processing. (Exhibit D)
HQ AFPC/DPPAE verified that the RE code of 2C, (Involuntarily
separated with an honorable discharge; or entry level separation
without characterization of service) is correct. (Exhibit E)
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the applicant on
15 November 2002, for review and comment within 30 days. As of this
date, this office has received no response. (Exhibit F)
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing law
or regulations.
2. The application was timely filed.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate
the existence of error or injustice. After a thorough review of the
evidence of record and applicant's submission, the discharge appears
to be in compliance with the governing AFI and we find no evidence to
indicate that his separation from the Air Force was inappropriate. We
find no evidence of error in this case and after thoroughly reviewing
the documentation that has been submitted in support of applicant's
appeal, we do not believe he has suffered from an injustice.
Applicant’s assigned RE Code of 2C accurately reflects his involuntary
entry-level separation without characterization of service.
Therefore, based on the available evidence of record, we find no basis
upon which to favorably consider this application.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not
2
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.
