RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2007-00409
INDEX CODE: 110.02
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her record be corrected to show a Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code
that would allow her to reenlist rather than the RE code of 2C,
Involuntary Separation with Honorable Discharge.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She no longer has the personality disorder she was diagnosed with
while in the Air Force. Just 12 days before entering the Air Force,
she was sexually attacked. It was really hard for her to deal with
that experience and Basic Military Training (BMT) especially as she
was so uncomfortable around men. She now feels as though she is ready
to join the Air Force as it is something she has always wanted to do.
She wants to serve her country and prove to herself she can be
successful in the Air Force.
In support of her appeal, the applicant has provided a personal
statement and a copy of her DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or
Discharge from Active Duty.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 8 August 2005. On 31
August 2005, she was notified by her commander that he was
recommending she be discharged based on a diagnosis of Personality
Disorder with depressed mood. On 12 September 2005, she was
discharged with an entry level separation with uncharacterized
service, as she had served less than 180 days. On 14 March 2007, HQ
AFPC/DPPRY directed her record be corrected to reflect an SPD code of
JFF (Secretarial Authority) rather than JFX (Personality Disorder),
and her Reason for Separation be changed from Personality Disorder to
Secretarial Authority. She has since been issued a new DD Form 214
reflecting the above changes.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
The AFBCMR Medical Consultant indicates the preponderance of the
evidence provided shows the applicant’s RE code should remain
unchanged pending receipt and review of previous psychological records
and a recent psychological consultation.
The remaining pertinent medical facts are contained in the advisory
prepared by the BCMR Medical Consultant at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Applicant states she wouldn’t be going through this process unless she
felt ready to follow through with it. She has bounced back from her
original problems and now feels as though she is mentally ready to
stick with her decision to rejoin the service for as long as it takes
for her to be successful.
Applicant’s complete response is at Exhibit E.
_________________________________________________________________
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 AFBCMR
Medical Consultant and adopt his rationale as the basis for our
conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an error or
injustice. 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.
