RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-02306
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
1. His entry-level discharge be upgraded to honorable.
2. His reentry (RE) code of 2C (Involuntarily separated with an
honorable discharge; or entry-level separation without
characterization of service) be changed.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He would like to enlist in the Ohio Air National Guard; however,
based on his 2C RE code, he does not qualify to join. He is
requesting the change due to his deep desire to reenter the
military, mainly the Air Force. He has been trying to reenter
the military since 2002 without success. His level of commitment
and confidence far exceeds what he had as a young eighteen year
old. He has excelled in his career as a mechanic and as a marine
since leaving the military.
The applicant does not submit any supporting documentation.
His complete submission is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Air Force on 30 Sep 92 and was
discharged on 19 Jan 93 for failing to make satisfactory progress
in his training program. He served on active duty for 3 months
and 20 days.
Additional 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. The applicant failed to
successfully complete the Apprentice Tactical Aircraft
maintenance Specialist Course that was a requirement to graduate.
The discharge was consistent with the procedural and substantive
requirements of the discharge regulation and was within the
discharge authoritys discretion. Additionally, the applicant
did not provide any evidence of an error or injustice that
occurred in the discharge processing.
The complete DPSOS evaluation is at Exhibit B.
AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial. The applicant received a 2C RE
code based on his entry-level separation with an uncharacterized
service. The applicant states that he would have chose a
different path if he had been properly informed; however, his
discharge was involuntary and directed by his commander. It is
noted the applicant desires to serve in the military; however,
each component of the military decides what conditions and RE
codes they will or will not accept for prior service members,
which can change over time.
The complete DPSOA evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the
applicant on 4 Nov 11 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 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 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.
Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no
basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this
application.
4. The applicant's case is adequately documented and it has not
been shown that a personal appearance with or without counsel
will materially add to our understanding of the issues involved.
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably considered.
_________________________________________________________________
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.
