COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His reentry (RE) code of 2C (Involuntarily separated with an
honorable discharge, or entry-level separation without
characterization of service) be changed to a 1-series RE code to
allow him to reenter military service.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Since his separation he has tried to better himself and would
like his RE code changed to allow him the opportunity to enlist
the Navy Reserve.
In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of his
DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active
Duty, and an expanded statement.
The applicant's complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 19 Jul 95, the applicant contracted his enlistment in the
Regular Air Force. He served as a Biomedical Equipment
Apprentice.
On 20 Mar 97, the applicants commander notified him that he was
recommending his discharge from the Air Force for unsatisfactory
performance. The specific reasons for the discharge action were
the applicants receipt of five Records of Individual Counseling
(RIC) for failure to perform assigned duties and unsatisfactory
performance.
On 25 Mar 97, after consulting with legal counsel, the applicant
acknowledged receipt of the notification for discharge and waived
his rights to submit statements in his own behalf.
On 25 Mar 97, the legal office reviewed the case and found it
legally sufficient to support separation and recommended the
applicant be honorably discharged without probation and
rehabilitation.
On 28 Mar 97, the discharge authority concurred with the
commanders recommendation and directed the applicant be
honorably discharged without probation and rehabilitation.
The applicant was discharged on 2 Apr 97 and was credited with
1 year, 8 months, and 14 days of active service.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
HQ AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial noting the applicant does not
contend there was an error and injustice and the RE code he
received is appropriate and is required in accordance with AFI
36-2606, Reenlistments in the USAF, based on him being
involuntarily discharged with an honorable character of service.
The complete AFPC/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 21 Oct 11 for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D).
As of this date, no response has been received by this office.
_________________________________________________________________
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 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 opinion and the
recommendation of the Air Force office 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.
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.
