                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2008-01120
            INDEX CODE:  110.00
            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His reenlistment eligibility (RE) code of 2C be changed to  3A  so  that  he
can enlist in the Air Force Reserve.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He and his recruiter were misled to believe that he could enlist in the  Air
Force Reserve while on unsupervised probation.

He enlisted in the Air Force Reserve on 3  Mar  04.   He  was  charged  with
Driving Under the Influence (DUI) on April 4, 2004.   He  agreed  to  pay  a
$2,500 fine and perform 80 hours of community service.  The court agreed  to
suspend his sentence upon completion of Basic Military  Training,  Technical
School and return to his home of record.

He has paid his fine, completed  community  service  and  is  no  longer  on
probation.  He has not been in any trouble since this  incident.   Over  the
last three years, he has  demonstrated  personal  growth  and  maturity  and
would like to enlist in the Reserve.

In support of his  application,  the  applicant  submits  an  AF  Form  100,
Request and Authorization for Separation, an electronic  mail  message,  and
letters from his discharge package.

The applicant's complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant was discharged from the Regular Air Force  on  9  Jun  04  for
Erroneous Entry.  He had served one month 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 at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

HQ AFRC/A1E recommends denial.  A1E states the applicant  has  not  provided
documentation to support his request.  His RE code of 2C does  not  preclude
him from reentering the Air Force or Air Force Reserve, if  he  meets  entry
requirements.

The complete A1E evaluation is at Exhibit C.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 11  Apr
08 for review and comment within 30 days.  As of this date, this office  has
received no response (Exhibit D).

_________________________________________________________________

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  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 the 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  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 probable 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.
