INDEX CODE: 110.02
COUNSEL: NOT INDICATED
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His reenlistment eligibility (RE) code be changed to allow him to
reenlist into the military.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He served his time honorably without any nonjudicial punishment and
needs his RE code changed to reenter the Air Force.
In support of the appeal, the applicant submits a copy of DD Form 214,
Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, and AF Form 100,
Request and Authorization for Separation.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force as an airman basic on
26 Nov 97, for a term of four years. On 5 May 03, he received
nonjudicial punishment (NJP) under Article 15, of the Uniformed Code
of Military Justice punishment for failure to use his government
travel card for official travel only, dereliction of duty, and for
failure to medicate a military working dog. His punishment consisted
of reduction to the grade of airman first class, with a new date of
rank of 12 May 03, 14 days extra duty, and a reprimand.
On 24 Oct 03, he was released from active duty with an honorable
character of service. He received an RE code of 4E “Grade is airman
first class or below and the airman completed 31 or more months (55
months for 6-year enlistees), if a first term airman; or, grade is
airman first class or below and the airman is a second term or career
airman.” He served 5 years, 10 months and 29 days total active
service.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial. DPSOA states, no issue of error or
injustice warranting the requested relief is presented as the
applicant held the grade of airman first class or below at the time of
his discharge.
The DPSOA 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
16 Nov 07, for review and comment 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 injustice to warrant changing the
applicant’s reenlistment eligibility (RE) code. 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. 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.
