RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2003-02725
INDEX CODE: 110.02
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her reenlistment eligibility (RE) code be changed to one that would
enable her to enlist in the Air Force Reserve (AFRES).
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She was separated while undergoing punishment and was issued an RE
code that prevented her from reenlistment in the future. Had she
known at the time she would not be able to reenlist, she would have
extended her enlistment to prevent it.
In support of her appeal, the applicant has provided copies of her DD
Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty.
Her complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant entered active duty on 24 September 1997. She was charged
with violating a lawful general regulation by wrongfully using the
government communication system (e-mail), on or about 13 October 2000,
to send offensive material. On 28 November 2000, she received an
Article 15 with punishment consisting of reduction in grade to Airman
First Class (E-3), suspended until 16 May 2001, unless sooner vacated,
and 30 days additional duty. She was honorably discharged for
Completion of Required Active Service, on 23 September 2001. She had
served for 4 years and was separated in the grade of Airman First
Class (E-3). Her DOR was 30 December 1998. She was discharged with
an RE code of 2X (Considered but not Selected for Reenlistment).
After reviewing the applicable instruction, AFI 36-2606, it appears
the RE code is correct.
_________________________________________________________________
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 probable error or injustice that would warrant a
change to his RE code. We note that the RE code which was assigned at
the time of her separation accurately reflects the circumstances of
her separation and evidence has not been provided that would lead us
to believe otherwise. 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 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.
