XXXXXXX COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her Reentry (RE) code of 2C (Involuntarily discharged with an honorable discharge) be changed to a “1.”
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She did not do anything directly wrong to earn the 2C RE code and wants it changed so that she may reenlist in the Navy.
The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The relevant facts pertaining to this application are contained in the letters prepared by the appropriate offices of the Air Force. Accordingly, there is no need to recite these facts in this Record of Proceedings.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOS recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of an error or injustice. The applicant was discharged from the Air Force for Unsatisfactory Performance for disenrollment from her technical training program for academic deficiency. Specifically, she failed two block 3 tests and failed 11 test objectives required of the National Registry for Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) written exam. Prior to being disenrolled, she attended test-taking and study skills classes at the Wing Learning and Development Center, received two letters of counseling, and was washed back academically. She acknowledged receipt of the action and was afforded the opportunity to consult with counsel and submit statements on her own behalf. The case was found legally sufficient and the discharge authority approved her separation and directed her honorable discharge. She received counseling on several occasions and was afforded ample opportunity to overcome her deficiencies. She has presented no evidence of an error or injustice with respect to the discharge action. The RE code of 2C was properly established based upon her involuntary discharge and honorable service characterization.
A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSOS evaluation is at Exhibit C.
AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of an error or injustice. The applicant’s RE code of 2C was appropriately issued in conjunction with her involuntary discharge with an honorable service characterization as required per AFI 36-2606, Reenlistments in the USAF.
A complete copy of the AFPC/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 23 Dec 10 for review and comment within 30 days. As of this date, no response has been received by this office (Exhibit E).
________________________________________________________________
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. We took notice of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of the case; however, 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 the applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice. No evidence has been presented which would lead us to believe the RE code of 2Q was not appropriately assigned or did not accurately reflect the circumstances of her discharge. 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 the evidence presented did not demonstrate the existence of material 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.
