IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2004-02672
INDEX CODE: 112.00
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code be changed.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He accepted and received an RE code of 2Y which makes him ineligible for
entry into the California Air National Guard. He states his separation was
honorable and should be reflected as such.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
During the time period in question, the applicant enlisted in the Regular
Air Force in the grade of senior airman.
On 4 November 1987, the applicant was notified of his commander’s intent to
impose nonjudicial punishment upon him for the following: He was, at
Travis Air Force Base, California, on or about 29 October 1987, disorderly
by publicly kissing an airman, a woman not his wife.
After consulting with counsel, the applicant waived his right to a trial by
court-martial, submitted a written presentation in his behalf and requested
to make a personal appearance. However, he did not desire that it be
public.
On 12 November 1987, he was found guilty by his commander who imposed the
following punishment: A forfeiture of $100.00 per month for one month, two
weeks of additional duties, a reprimand, and his Selective
Reenlistment/NonCommissioned Officer Status Consideration was vacated - AF
Form 418, dated 12 November 1987.
The applicant did not appeal the punishment. The Article 15 was filed in
his Unfavorable Information File (UIF).
On 5 November 1984, the applicant was honorably discharge in the grade of
senior airman, under the provisions of AFR 39-10, Early Separation Program
- Strength Reduction. He served six years, five months and three days of
total active duty service. He received an RE code of 2Y - first term,
second-term or career airman considered but not selected for reenlistment
under the SRP.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPAE recommended denial indicating there was nothing to support the
course of action requested by the applicant.
The evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 8 October 2004, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the
applicant for review and response within 30 days. As of this date, no
response has been received by this office.
_________________________________________________________________
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. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the
existence of an error or an injustice. While the RE code assigned to the
applicant, at the time he was discharged, was technically correct and in
accordance with the governing regulation, the Board majority believes it
would be an injustice for the applicant to continue to suffer its effects.
It is noted the Air Force office of primary responsibility recommended not
changing the reenlistment code, but the Board majority believes the
applicant should be afforded the opportunity to apply for a waiver to
enlist in the armed services. Whether or not he is successful will depend
on the needs of the service and the Board majority recommendation in no way
guarantees he will be allowed to return to the Air Force or any branch of
the service. In view of the foregoing, we recommend the applicant’s
records be corrected to the extent indicated below.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:
The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force relating
to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that at the time of his discharge on 1
April 1988, he was issued a Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code of “3K.”
