RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2004-01590
INDEX CODE: 100.06
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her narrative reason for separation be changed or removed.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She believes that the narrative reason “unsatisfactory performance”
holds her solely responsible for training she did not receive prior to
testing for her upgrade training. The end of course test she failed
was different from what she was taught during on the job training.
In support of her request, applicant provided a personal statement.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 18 October 2000,
for a term of 4 years.
On 24 April 2002, she was notified of her commander’s intent to
recommend that she be discharged from the Air Force under the
provisions of AFI 36-3208, Administrative Separation of Airmen,
(Unsatisfactory Performance) and receive an honorable discharge. The
reason for this action was that she failed her career development
course (CDC) end-of-course test on 11 February 2002, and again on 18
March 2002. She was advised of her rights in this matter and
acknowledged receipt of the notification on that same date. She
consulted with counsel and submitted statements for consideration. In
a legal review of the case file, the base legal office found the case
legally sufficient to support discharge. The discharge authority
approved the separation and ordered an honorable discharge without
probation and rehabilitation. She was separated from the Air Force on
23 May 2002, with an honorable service characterization and received a
RE code of 2C ”Involuntarily separated with an honorable discharge; or
entry level separation without characterization of service.” She
served one year, seven months and three days on active duty.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPRS recommends denial. Based upon the documentation in master
personnel records, 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 process. She
provided no facts warranting a change to the narrative reason for
separation.
The DPPRS evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 4
Jun 04, for review and comment within 30 days. As of this date, this
office has received no response.
_________________________________________________________________
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 to warrant changing the
applicant’s discharge. We took notice of the applicant’s complete
submission in judging the merits of the case, however; we agree with
the opinions and recommendations of the Air Force office of primary
responsibility and adopt their rationale as the basis for our
conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an error or
injustice. 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.
