IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2004-03070
INDEX CODE: 112.00
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her reenlistment eligibility (RE) code of 2C be changed.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She was involuntarily discharged and would like to be a career airman.
In support of the appeal, applicant submits a copy of her DD Form 214.
Applicant's complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 16 August 2000 for a
period of four (4) years. She was progressively promoted to the grade
of airman first class on 16 December 2001. She received one Enlisted
Performance Report (EPR) closing 15 April 2002, in which the overall
evaluation was “3.”
On 19 June 2002, applicant’s commander notified her that he was
recommending an honorable discharge for unsatisfactory performance.
Basis for the action: (1) On or about 28 February 2002, applicant
took the End of Course (EOC) examination requiring a minimum passing
score of 65%. Her report of court examination indicated she received
a failing score of 52%. On or about 16 May 2002, applicant again took
the EOC examination requiring a minimum passing score of 65%. Her
report of course examination indicated she received a failing score of
61%. (2) After her first EOC failure, a CDC Course Failure session
was held on 25 April 2002. During this session, the following plan
was established: (a) Supervised study time at work as the mission
permits. (b) Off-duty study. (c) Work center supervisors
administering practice tests to prepare her for the re-test and to
also assist her in test taking practices.
In addition to the above, applicant received four Letters of Reprimand
(LORs), three for dereliction of duty and one for disrespect/provoking
gestures. Applicant acknowledged receipt of the notification of
discharge and after consulting with legal counsel waived her right to
submit statements in her own behalf. The base legal office reviewed
the case and found it legally sufficient to support discharge and
recommended applicant be discharged with an honorable discharge
without probation and rehabilitation. The discharge authority
approved the separation and directed that applicant be discharged with
an honorable discharge without probation and rehabilitation.
The applicant was separated from the Air Force on 28 June 2002 under
the provisions of AFI 36-3208, Administrative Separation of Airmen
(unsatisfactory performance), with an honorable discharge. She served
1 year, 10 months and 12 days on active duty. She received an RE code
of “2C.” RE code 2C indicates an involuntary separation with an
honorable discharge or entry-level separation without characterization
of service.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPRS states, based on the documentation on file in the master
personnel records, the discharge was consistent with the procedural
and substantive requirements of the discharge regulation. The
discharge was within the discretion of the discharge authority.
Therefore, they recommend denial of applicant’s request.
A complete copy of the evaluation is attached at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 19 November 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 timely filed.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate
the existence of error or injustice. The applicant’s RE code had its
basis in her discharge because of unsatisfactory performance. The
applicant has provided no evidence to indicate the information in her
discharge case file was erroneous, or substantial rights were
violated, or her commanders abused their discretionary authority. In
addition, the applicant has not provided any evidence that would lead
us to believe that she has successfully overcome the shortcomings
leading to her separation. Without such evidence, favorable
consideration or her request is not possible.
_________________________________________________________________
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.
