RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-02758 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

___________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His reentry (RE) code of “4” (Condition barring immediate 
reenlistment – not waiverable) be changed to “3” (Condition barring 
immediate reenlistment – waiverable within the Air Force) in order 
to make him eligible to reenlist. 

 

___________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He served honorably for 2 years in the Air National Guard (ANG). 
Prior to joining the ANG he served in the Marines and completed his 
Associates degree. While serving in the ANG he washed out of 
Combat Controller School; however, he then joined the North 
Carolina ANG and completed training as an Air Traffic Controller; 
he deployed to Iraq. Upon returning from Iraq, his troubles began 
when his marriage and financial situation fell apart. Later, he 
finished his Bachelor’s degree in Professional Aeronautics. He 
wishes to further his education and go back in the military. He 
would like a favorable consideration to his request which will give 
him a second chance to serve in the military. 

 

In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of a 
personal letter, copies of his NGB Form 22, National Guard Bureau 
Report of Separation and Record of Service, and copies of his DD 
Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty. 

 

His complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A. 

 

___________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

According to the applicant’s NGB Form 22, it appears he has 
11 years, 6 months, and 13 days of total service for pay. He 
received a general (under honorable conditions) discharge on 25 Oct 
05 in the grade of airman first class (E-2).

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

NGB/A1POE recommends denial. A1POE states the applicant was 
separated for unsatisfactory participation after missing more than 
nine unexcused absences from training. The applicant should have 
received a letter of notification prior to his separation that 
would have included the reason for this action, an explanation of 
his right to consult with counsel and the right to submit 
statements on his own behalf. The applicant does not show any 
evidence of an error or injustice occurring; therefore, A1POE 
cannot support this request. 

 

The NGB/A1POE complete evaluation is at Exhibit B. 

 

NGB/A1PS recommends denial. A1PS agrees with A1POE to deny the 
applicant’s request. 

 

The NGB/A1PS complete evaluation is at Exhibit C. 

 

___________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the 
applicant on 27 Aug 10 for review and comment within 30 days. As 
of this date, this office has received no response. 

 

___________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 

 

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

 

2. The application was timely filed. 

 

3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice. The 
applicant’s contentions are duly noted; however, we are not 
persuaded that the applicant has been the victim of an error or 
injustice. At the time members are separated from the Air Force, 
they are furnished an RE code predicated upon the quality of their 
service and circumstances of their separation. After a thorough 
review of the evidence of record, we believe that given the 
circumstances surrounding the applicant’s separation, the RE code 
issued was in accordance with the appropriate directives. 
Therefore, we find no basis upon which to recommend favorable 
action on 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.
