RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2009-01187
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her reentry (RE) code 4J (Entered into Phase I of the Air Force
Weight Program, or the unit commander has declared the airman
ineligible to reenlist for a period of Phase II or probation) be
changed to allow her to enlist in the Reserves.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She had no discipline problems or write-ups in her records. She
was a great airman with great work ethics and a positive
attitude.
In support of her request, the applicant provided a copy of her
DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active
Duty.
The applicant's complete submission, with an attachment, is at
Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 7 Dec 94, the applicant contracted her initial enlistment in
the Regular Air Force. She was progressively promoted to the
grade of senior airman having assumed the grade effective and
with a date of rank of 7 Dec 97.
On 6 Jan 00, she was honorably discharged. She served five years
and one month on active duty.
On 8 Jun 09, AFPC/DPSOS informed the applicant that her DD From
214 will be administratively corrected to change the separation
code, reason for discharge and reserve obligation termination
date.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial. DPSOA states the applicant was not
eligible for reenlistment at the time of her separation based on
the RE code 4J. Service members released before serving the full
eight years of their military service obligation are transferred
to the Reserves and those who are not eligible for reenlistment
are discharged. Service members in Phase I or Phase II probation
of the Weight Management Program do not have any other mandatory
input in the personnel record, besides the 4J RE code.
The AFPC/DPSOA complete evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant
26 Jun 09 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 waive the failure to timely file.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of an error or an injustice. We took
notice of the applicant's complete submission in judging the
merits of the case; however, we agree with the opinion and the
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 of the
existence 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.
4. The applicant's case is adequately documented and it has not
been shown that a personal appearance with or without counsel
will materially add to our understanding of the issue(s)
involved. Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably
considered.
_________________________________________________________________
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.
