RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-02760 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His reentry (RE) code of 2Q (Personnel medically retired or 
discharged) be changed to a code that would allow him to 
reenlist. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He cannot enlist in any other branch of service due to his 2Q RE 
code. 

 

In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of his 
DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active 
Duty. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachment, is at 
Exhibit A. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 17 July 2007. 

 

A Medical Evaluation Board (MEB) convened on 23 June 2009 and 
referred his case to an Informal Physical Evaluation Board (IPEB) 
with a diagnosis of contact dermatitis to hydraulic fluids. On 
21 August 2009, the IPEB found him unfit for further military 
service and recommended discharge with severance pay with a 
disability rating of 10%. The applicant agreed with the findings 
and recommended disposition of the IPEB. On 29 September 2009, 
the Office of the Secretary of the Air Force directed the 
applicant be separated from active service for physical 
disability. He served 2 years, 3 months and 14 days on active 
duty.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSD recommends denial. DPSD states the correct 
reenlistment eligibility status code for a person who is approved 
for a medical retirement or separation is 2Q. JFL is the correct 
separation code for a person who is approved for a medical 
separation. The preponderance of evidence reflects that no error 
or injustice occurred during the disability process or at the 
time of separation. 

 

The DPSD complete evaluation is at Exhibit C. 

 

AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial. DPSOA states the applicant’s RE 
code is correct per AFI 36-2606, Reenlistment in the USAF, 
chapter 3, based on his disability discharge. The applicant does 
not try to prove an error occurred but states he cannot sign up 
for any branch of the military because of his RE code. 

 

The DPSOA complete evaluation is at Exhibit D. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

On 12 November 2010, copies of the Air Force evaluations were 
forwarded to the applicant for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit D). 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. After a 
thorough review of the evidence of record, it is our opinion that 
given the circumstances surrounding his separation from the Air 
Force, the RE code assigned was proper and in compliance with the 
appropriate instructions. In addition, the applicant has not 
provided any evidence which would lead us to believe that a 
change to his RE code to allow him to reenlist is warranted. 
Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no 
basis to recommend granting the relief sought. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

 


 

 

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT: 

 

The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice; the 
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the 
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of 
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this 
application.
