STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant contracted his enlistment in the Regular Air Force on 17 Mar
71 for a period of 4 years. He was progressively promoted to the
grade of airman, with an effective date and date of rank of 28 Apr 71.
On 19 Aug 71, the applicant received notification that he was being
recommended for discharge. The reason for this action was his
unsuitability due to character and behavior disorders, as evidenced by
two letters from the Chief, Psychiatry Service. The Chief, Psychiatry
Service, stated that there was a strong character and behavior
disorder of a passive aggressive type with both passive and aggressive
tendencies. The applicant consulted legal counsel, but waived his
rights to a hearing before an administrative discharge board and did
not submit statements. He received an honorable discharge on 27 Aug
71 under the provisions of AFM 39-12 (Unsuitability-character-behavior
disorder). He had completed a total of 5 months and 11 days and was
serving in the grade of airman (E-2) at the time of discharge. He
received an RE Code of 2, which defined means "ineligible to
reenlist.”
On 17 Apr 75, applicant applied to the Air Force Board for Correction
of Military Records (AFBCMR) for correction of his reenlistment
eligibility (RE) code, Docket Number SAFCB 75-3887. His application
was denied by the Board on 7 Nov 75. On 10 Nov 75, the applicant was
notified of the Board’s decision.
Applicant's request to have his RE code changed was denied by the Air
Force Discharge Review Board (AFDRB) on 8 Aug 75. A copy of the AFDRB
Hearing Record is appended at Exhibit C.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
HQ AFPC/DPPRS recommends the application be denied. DPPRS states that
based upon the documentation in the file, the discharge was consistent
with the procedural and substantive requirements of the discharge
regulation. Additionally, the discharge was within the discretion of
the discharge authority. The applicant did not submit any new
evidence or identify any errors or injustices that occurred in the
discharge processing. Additionally, he provided no facts warranting
an upgrade of his discharge. The HQ AFPC/DPPRS evaluation is at
Exhibit D.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to applicant on 4
October 2002 for review and response. As of this date, no response
has been received by this office (Exhibit E).
_________________________________________________________________
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 error or injustice. After reviewing the evidence of
record, we are unpersuaded that the applicant’s records are in error
or that he has been the victim of an injustice. The applicant did not
provide persuasive evidence showing the information in the discharge
case file was erroneous, his substantial rights were violated, or that
his commanders abused their discretionary authority. 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
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.
