RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-04040
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His reentry code (RE) 2C (involuntary separation with an
honorable discharge; or entry level separation without
characterization of service) be changed to allow him to reenlist
in the Ohio Air National Guard.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
While in technical school, he was unable to pass the basic air
crew block one test. He is capable of far greater things. He
is capable of passing college level tests and he did so while
waiting to be discharged at Lackland Air Force Base. Serving in
the Air Force has always been his dream and he is disappointed
he is unable to do so.
In support of his appeal, the applicant provides a copy of his
DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active
Duty, two supporting statements and a copy of his CLEP
transcript.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 20 April 2010, the applicant enlisted in the Regular Air
Force. On 11 August 2010, the commander notified the applicant
of his intent to discharge him from the Air Force for failing to
make satisfactory progress in a required training program. The
applicant acknowledged receipt of the notification memorandum
and his right to consult an attorney and submit matters on his
behalf: he declined both rights. The case was found legally
sufficient on 17 August 2010.
On 18 April 2010, the commander directed the applicant be
discharged under the provision of AFI 36-3208, Administrative
Separation of Airmen, for entry level performance or conduct:
failure to make satisfactory progress in a required training
program. He was separated with an entry level separation. His
service was uncharacterized and his RE code was 2C. He was
credited with serving 4 months and 1 day on active duty.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOS recommends denial. DPSOS states the discharge and
the narrative reason for separation were appropriate and within
the discretion of the discharge authority.
The complete DPSOS evaluation is at Exhibit C.
AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial. DPSOA states code 2C is required
per AFI 36-2606, Reenlistments in the USAF, based on his entry
level separation and uncharacterized service.
The complete DPSOA evaluation is at Exhibit D.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the
applicant on 8 April 2011, for review and comment within 30 days
(Exhibit E). 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 error or injustice. We took notice
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of
the case; however, we find no evidence of an error or injustice.
Therefore, we agree with the opinions and recommendations of the
Air Force offices of primary responsibility, and adopt their
rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has
not been the victim of an error or injustice. In view of the
foregoing and absent evidence to the contrary, we conclude that
no basis exists upon which to recommend favorable action on the
applicants request.
________________________________________________________________
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.
