             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2007-00680
            INDEX CODE:  110.00, 112.00

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE:  7 SEP 08

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His reenlistment eligibility (RE) code and separation code be changed.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He desires to reenlist in the service.  He believes he would be  a  powerful
asset to the Air Force.

In support of his request, the applicant provided a personal  statement  and
documentation extracted from his military personnel record.

Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

Applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 16 March 2004.  On 5  October
2005, applicant was notified by his commander of  his  intent  to  recommend
that he be discharged from the Air Force under the provisions of AFPD  36-32
and  AFI   36-3208,   paragraph   5.26.3   –   unsatisfactory   performance.
Specifically, on or  about  12  July  2005,  he  failed  the  2T3X1A  Career
Development Course test, for the second time as documented  on  AFIADL  Form
9.  His score of 53% failed to meet the minimum passing score of 65%.  As  a
result of his second test failure, he was withdrawn from  training.   On  or
about 28 April 2005, he failed the 2T3X1A Career Development Course test  as
documented on AFIADL Form 9.  His score of 40% failed to  meet  the  minimum
passing score of 65%.  He was advised of  his  rights  in  this  matter  and
acknowledged  receipt  of  the  notification  on  that  same  date.    After
consulting with counsel the applicant elected to submit  statements  on  his
own behalf.  In a legal review of the case file, the  staff  judge  advocate
found the case legally sufficient and  recommended  that  he  be  discharged
with an  honorable  discharge  without  probation  and  rehabilitation.   On
27 October 2005, the discharge authority concurred with the  recommendations
and directed that he be discharged with an honorable  discharge.   Applicant
was discharged on 2 November 2005.  He served 1 year, 7 months and  17  days
on active duty.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPRS recommends denial.  DPPRS states based on  the  documentation  on
file in the master personnel records, the discharge was consistent with  the
procedural and substantive requirements of the  discharge  regulation.   The
discharge was within the discretion of the discharge authority.

Applicant did not submit any evidence or identify any errors  or  injustices
that occurred in the discharge processing.  He provided no facts  warranting
a  change  to  his  reenlistment  eligibility  code  or  separation  program
designator (SPD).

The DPPRS complete evaluation is at Exhibit C.

AFPC/DPPAE recommends denial.  DPPAE states they found no evidence of  error
or injustice; nor did the applicant submit any evidence.

The DPPAE complete evaluation is at Exhibit D.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

The applicant reviewed the evaluation and states he desires to  reenlist  in
the service and retrain into a new career field.  He states  he  will  be  a
powerful asset to the Air Force.  He has skills that can meet many jobs.  He
is now a U.S. citizen and can fulfill any job anywhere in the world.

Applicant’s complete response is at Exhibit F.

_________________________________________________________________

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.  Notwithstanding the  fact  that  the  separation
and reenlistment codes issued at the  time  of  the  applicant's  separation
were in accordance with the applicable regulations, we  believe  that  based
on the  particular  circumstance  of  this  case,  he  should  be  given  an
opportunity to request a waiver to serve in the Air Force.  Whether  or  not
he  is  successful  will  depend  on  the  needs  of  the  service  and  our
recommendation in no way guarantees that he will be  allowed  to  return  to
the Air Force or any other branch of  service.   Accordingly,  we  recommend
his 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 on 2 November 2005 he was  separated
under the provisions of AFI 36-3208, paragraph 1.2  (Secretarial  Authority)
with a separation code of JFF and a reenlistment eligibility  (RE)  code  of
3K.

    She served 2 years, 2 months and 13 days of active service. The AFPC/DPPRS evaluation is at Exhibit C. AFPC/DPPAE stated that the Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code of 2C, “Involuntarily separated with an honorable discharge; or entry level separation without characterization of service” is correct. However, after reviewing the applicant’s records, the Board believes the narrative reason for separation and her current RE code are somewhat harsh.
