                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2003-02435
            INDEX CODE:  110.02
            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO


_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code be changed.

_________________________________________________________________

THE APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He is a law-abiding citizen and is physically fit and  ready  to  fight  for
his country.

Applicant’s complete submission is attached at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 26 March 1997.

The applicant was punished by article 15 for failure to go.  In March  2001,
the suspended portion of the previously imposed article  15  punishment  was
vacated because he was in physical control of a vehicle while drunk.  On  25
March 2001, he was discharged  under  the  provisions  of  AFI  36-3208  for
completion  of  required  active  service  and  was  issued   an   honorable
discharge. He received a separation designator code of JBK and a RE code  of
4E.  He served four years on active duty.

Applicant does not contest the accuracy of the RE code and  after  reviewing
the applicable instruction, AFI 36-2606, it appears the RE  code  issued  is
accurate.

_________________________________________________________________

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 an  error  or  injustice.   Applicant’s  contentions  are  duly
noted; however, we are not persuaded that the applicant has been the  victim
of an error or injustice.  At the time members are separated  from  the  Air
Force, they are furnished an RE code predicated upon the  quality  of  their
service and circumstances of their separation.  After a thorough  review  of
the evidence of record, we believe that given the circumstances  surrounding
the applicant’s separation, the RE code issued was in  accordance  with  the
appropriate  directives.   Therefore,  we  find  no  basis  upon  which   to
recommend favorable action on 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.

_________________________________________________________________
