On 27 Jul 05, the squadron commander initiated administrative
discharge action against the applicant for Unsatisfactory
Performance. The reasons for the proposed action were:
On 7 May 04, applicant was entered in On-the-Job-Training (OJT) for
the Security Forces Journeyman (AFSC 3P051) Career Development
Course (CDC). On 18 Nov 04, applicant failed the End-of-Course
exam. On 1 Feb 05, she again failed the End of Course exam.
Applicant expressed that she no longer wanted to be a Security
Forces member but was interested in retraining. She was allowed to
retrain; however, an initial review of her ASVAB scores indicated
that she had a very limited opportunity for retraining. She
subsequently retested but unfortunately her ASVAB re-test results
did not qualify her for retraining into another AFSC. Without a
definite desire to remain in the Security Forces career field and
the appropriate ASVAB scores to qualify for retraining, it was not
appropriate to pursue a waiver or to wait 90 days for re-
evaluation.
Applicant acknowledged receipt of the discharge notification and
waived her rights to consult counsel or to submit a statement in
her own behalf. The staff judge advocate found the case legally
sufficient and recommended an honorable discharge, without
probation and rehabilitation (P&R). In Aug 05, the discharge
authority approved the discharge action and directed she be
honorably discharged, without P&R.
On 27 Aug 05, applicant was honorably discharged under the
provisions of AFI 36-3208, by reason of “Unsatisfactory
Performance,” and was issued an RE code of 2C. She was credited
with 2 years and 9 months of active duty service, including 1 year,
4 months, and 1 day of foreign service.
___________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
HQ AFPC/DPPAE reviewed this application and recommended denial.
Based on circumstances of her discharge, they found no evidence of
an error or injustice; therefore, the applicant’s RE code of 2C is
correct. Additionally, if the applicant is seeking reentry into
military service, she should request a waiver of the RE code
through the enlisting component authority.
DPPAE’s complete evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit C.
___________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant
on 2 Feb 07 for review and comment 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. We took notice of
the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of the
case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the
Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt its rationale
as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has not been the
victim of an error or injustice. The Board noted, if the applicant
is seeking reentry into military service, she should request a
waiver of the RE code by the enlisting component authority.
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.
