RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2006-00029-2
INDEX CODE: 110.02
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE: 15 APRIL 2008
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) Code of “2Q” be changed so he may enlist
in the military.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 16 May 2005, the, applicant was honorably discharged for “Disability,
Existed Prior to Service - PEB” with an RE code of 2Q, “Personnel medically
retired or discharged.” He had served 1 year, 3 months and 26 days on
active duty.
On 15 March 2007, the Board considered the applicant’s request and
determined that the applicant should be medically evaluated before it
rendered a decision regarding the applicant’s request. The Board therefore
directed that the applicant be issued invitational travel orders to Wilford
Hall Medical Center for the purpose of undergoing a physical examination to
determine his fitness for reentry into military service and that the
results be forwarded to the Board for a final determination on his request.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
The BCMR Medical Consultant recommends a change in the records to allow
reenlistment. The BCMR Medical Consultant states that evidence presented
in the recent pulmonary consultation indicates that the original diagnosis
of asthma may have been overstated and the applicant’s concomitant
infectious process temporarily interfered with his ability to perform
appropriately on bronchoprovocation testing. The BCMR Medical Consultant’s
complete evaluation is at Exhibit F.
_______________________________________________________________
APPLICANT’S REVIEW OF THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 14 Aug
07 for his review and comment within 30 days. As of
this date, this office has received no response.
_______________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
After receiving the results of the applicant’s physical examination, the
Board believes the applicant’s RE code and narrative reason for separation
should be changed to allow him to apply for reentry into military service.
The relief the Board recommends will in no way guarantee the applicant will
be accepted for military service, only that he will not be excluded from
applying. This recommendation also does not mean the previous discharge
action was in error or constituted an injustice at the time. Since the
applicant is now considered fit for military service, the Board believes he
should be afforded the opportunity to seek reentry into military service.
Therefore, the Board recommends the applicant’s records be corrected as
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 on 16 May 2005, he was discharged
under the provisions of AFI 36-3208 by reason of “Secretarial Authority,”
with a Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code of “3K.”
