AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2005-01309
INDEX CODE: 100.03, 100.06
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx COUNSEL: NONE
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx HEARING DESIRED: NO
MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE: 21 OCT 2006
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her reenlistment eligibility (RE) code “2C” be changed to one that
would allow her to enlist in the Air National Guard.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
A local Recruiter informed her that she was ineligible to enlist in
any branch of the military and requests her DD Form 214 be changed.
In support of her request, applicant provided DD Form 293, Application
for the Review of Discharge from the Armed Forces of the United
States.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 8 October 2002, for
a term of 4 years.
On 25 January 2005, 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) with an honorable discharge.
The reason for this action was that she failed her career development
course (CDC) end-of-course test on 13 April 2004, and again on 26 May
2004. 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 11 February 2005, 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 two years, four months and four days on active duty.
_____________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPRS recommends denial. DPPRS states based upon the
documentation in the file, 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 her RE code.
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
29 Apr 05, 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. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the
existence of an injustice. After reviewing the evidence of record, it
appears that her separation was proper and in compliance with the
appropriate regulations in effect at the time. However, since her
record is clear of any disciplinary problems, the Board majority
believes that she should be provided the opportunity to reapply for
entry in the Armed Forces. Whether or not she is successful will
depend on the needs of the service and our recommendation in no way
guarantees that she will be allowed to return to any branch of
service. Therefore, the Board majority recommends that her 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 her
discharge on 11 February 2005, she was issued a Reenlistment
Eligibility (RE) code of "3K".
