INDEX CODE:
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her reenlistment eligibility (RE) code of 4E be changed and her DD
Form 214 reflect she was released from active duty and transferred to
the inactive reserve.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Her original contract placed her in inactive Reserve duty for four
years after separation.
Applicant's complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 20 May 1998 for a
period of four years. She was progressively promoted to the grade of
airman first class. She received three enlisted performance reports
(EPRs) closing 19 January 2000, 19 January 2001 (referral), and 19
January 2002, of which the over all evaluations were “4."
On 10 May 2002, applicant was notified by her commander that her
promotion to senior airman was being withheld because she had been
placed in the Air Force Weight and Body Fat Management Program.
On 19 July 2002, the applicant was discharged under the provisions of
AFI 36-3208 (Completion of Required Active Service) with an honorable
discharge. She was assigned a reenlistment eligibility (RE) code of
4E (Grade is airman first class or below and airman completed 31 or
more months (55 months for 6-year enlistees), if a first-term airman;
or, grade is airman first class or below and the airman is a second-
term or career airman). He served a total of four years and two
months active duty.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPAE states there was nothing to support the course of action
requested by the applicant.
A complete copy of the evaluation is attached at Exhibit C.
AFPC/DPPRS states based on the fact applicant was serving in the grade
of airman first class and had completed over 31 months of active duty,
she was ineligible to reenlist or extend her enlistment. Her
expiration term of service (ETS) was 19 July 2002 and effective that
date she received a voluntary honorable discharge. She was serving
under the Weight and Body Fat Management Program (WBFMP) at the time
of her discharge. Her separation program designator was established
as KBK (Expiration Term of Service) and her reenlistment eligibility
code was established as 4E, which are correct. Therefore, they
recommend denial of applicant’s request.
A complete copy of the evaluation is attached at Exhibit D.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 15 October 2004, copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded
to 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 timely filed.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate
the existence of error or injustice. 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 and adopt their rationale as the basis for the 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.
