RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2005-
01690
INDEX CODE: 100.00,
110.00
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE: 24 NOVEMBER 2006
___________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) Code be changed from “3K” to a
“1.”
__________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Her conduct was not drastic enough to warrant 3K. She did not lie
to her commander as she was accused.
Applicant’s complete submission is attached at Exhibit A.
___________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 27 Jul 04, for a
period of six years in the grade of airman basic.
On 27 Sep 04, applicant was eliminated from training for
unsuitability/academic deficiency, based on her not meeting the
minimum academic standards for the training course. The Military
Training Flight commander recommended applicant not be reinstated
into the course at a later date and that she not be considered for
further technical training. The applicant’s commander recommended
she be discharged under the Force Shaping Program.
Applicant’s master personnel record contains an unsigned AF Form
31, Airman’s Request for Early Separation/Separation Based on
Change in Service Obligation, requesting to be separated under the
Force Shaping Program II. The commander of the Military Personnel
Flight (MPF) approved the request for separation on 8 Oct 04.
On 14 Oct 04, applicant received an uncharacterized entry-level
separation, by reason of entry-level performance or conduct, and
was issued an RE Code of 2C (involuntarily separated with an entry-
level separation). She served 2 months and 18 days of active
military service.
Examiners Note: On 15 May 05, applicant submitted an Application
for Correction of Military Records (DD Form 149) requesting that
her RE code “2C” be changed to “1.” On 14 Jun 05, HQ AFPC/DPPRSP
administratively corrected applicant’s RE code on her DD Form 214
from RE code 2C “Involuntarily Separated with an Uncharacterized
Entry Level Separation,” to 3K “Reserved for use by HQ AFPC or the
Air Force Board for Correction of Military Records (AFBCMR) when no
other reenlistment eligibility code applies or is appropriate.”
Her Separation Program Designator (SPD) was changed to JCC
(reduction in force).
___________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
HQ AFPC/DPPRS recommends the application be denied and states, in
part, the applicant requested to be discharged from the Air Force
under the Force Shaping Program. Her request was approved by the
discharge authority on 8 Oct 04.
The reenlistment eligibility code of 3K makes applicant ineligible
for immediate reenlistment (within 24 hours after separation), but
she is eligible for prior service enlistment with an approved
waiver (provided she is otherwise qualified).
Applicant did not submit any evidence or identify any errors or
injustices that occurred in the discharge processing. She provided
no facts warranting a change to her reenlistment eligibility code.
A complete copy of the Air Force evaluation is attached at Exhibit
C.
___________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 22 Sep 05, 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 (Exhibit D).
___________________________________________________________________
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. At the time a
member is separated from the Air Force, they are furnished an RE
Code predicated upon the quality of their service and the
circumstances of their separation. The assigned code reflects the
Air Force’s position regarding whether or not, or under what
circumstances, the individual should be allowed to reenlist. After
careful review of the evidence of record, we are not persuaded that
the assigned RE code is in error or unjust or that an upgrade is
warranted. Furthermore, we note that the applicant’s current RE
code of 3K is a code that can be waived for prior service
enlistment consideration, provided she meets all other requirements
for enlistment under an existing prior service program, and
depending on the needs of the service. In view of the foregoing,
and in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no 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.
