RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2007-02289
            INDEX CODE:  110.00
            COUNSEL:  NONE
            HEARING DESIRED:  NO


MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE:  23 JAN 09


_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His reenlistment eligibility (RE) code be changed from  4G  (No  AFSC  skill
commensurate with grade), to allow him to reenter the Air Force.

_________________________________________________________________

THE APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His discharge was part of a large drawdown program going on at that time.

Applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 11 Jun 91  as  an  airman
for a period of six years.  On 19 Mar 94, he was honorably  discharged  from
active duty with an RE code of 4G.  He served two  years,  nine  months  and
nine days on active duty.

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application, extracted  from
the applicant's military records, are contained in the  letter  prepared  by
the appropriate office of the Air Force (Exhibit C)

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

HQ AFPC/DPPAE recommends the requested relief be denied.  DPPAE states  the
applicant was provided an opportunity to retrain but chose  to  voluntarily
separate without a valid ASFC, which resulted in the RE code he received.

The complete AFPC/DPPAE evaluation is attached at Exhibit C.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 31  Aug
07, for review and response within 30 days.  As of this  date,  no  response
has been received by this office.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing law or
regulations.

2.  The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the interest of
justice to excuse the failure to timely file.

3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been  presented  to  demonstrate  the
existence of an error or an injustice.  After careful consideration of  this
case, we are not persuaded that the RE  code  he  received  upon  separation
from active duty is in error or unjust.  Applicant’s  contentions  are  duly
noted; 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 failed to sustain  his  burden  of
proof that he has suffered either an error or an injustice.   Therefore,  in
view of the above and 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.
