COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His reentry (RE) code of 2C, which denotes involuntarily
separated with an honorable discharge; entry level separation
without characterization of service, be changed so he can
reenter the military.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
His RE code should be changed to NA or any eligible RE code
that makes him eligible for reenlistment.
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:
On 1 Jul 03, the applicant entered the Regular Air Force.
On 27 Aug 03, the applicant was diagnosed with an Adjustment
Disorder with Depressed Mood and was recommended for discharge.
On 12 Sep 03, the applicant was notified of pending discharge
action based on his diagnosed Adjustment Disorder. He waived
his right to consult counsel and to submit statements in his own
behalf.
On 16 Sep 03, the Chief of Adverse actions found the discharge
legally sufficient and recommended discharge with an entry level
separation. The discharge authority concurred and directed
discharge.
On 23 Sep 03, the applicant was discharged with an entry level
separation with a narrative reason for separation of Personality
Disorder and a RE code of 2C; however, in November 2003, his
discharge was administratively corrected to reflect Secretarial
Authority rather than Personality Disorder.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
HQ AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial and states the applicants RE
code is required based on his entry level separation with
uncharacterized service in accordance with AFI 36-2606, Reenlistment in the USAF, Chapter 3.
The complete DPSOA 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 12 Nov 10 for review and comment within 30 days
(Exhibit D). As of this date, this office has not received a
response.
_________________________________________________________________
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 our conclusion 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 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.
