RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-04471
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His uncharacterized service be changed to an honorable discharge.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He did not fraudulently enlist in the Air Force.
In support of his request, the applicant submits a personal
statement and medical documentation.
The applicant's complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 29 August
2011.
The applicant was notified by his commander of his intent to
recommend his discharge from the Air Force under the provisions
of AFPD 36-32 and AFI 36-3208. The specific reason was the
applicants history of mental health treatment and depression
that was not documented on his DD Form 2807-1, Report of Medical
History, and DD Form 2807-2, Medical Prescreen of Medical History
Report. Had the Air Force known it could have rendered him
ineligible to enlist in the Air Force.
He was advised of his rights in this matter and elected not to
consult with counsel and elected not to submit statements on his
own behalf. The discharge authority concurred with the
recommendation and directed an entry level separation. The
applicant was discharged on 8 September 2011.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOS recommends denial. DPSOS states the documentation on
file in the master personnel records supports the basis for
discharge. The discharge was consistent with the procedural and
substantive requirements of the discharge instruction and was
within the discretion of the discharge authority.
Airman are given entry level separation/uncharacterized service
characterization when separation is initiated in the first 180-
days continuous active service. The Department of Defense (DoD)
determined if a member served less than 180 days continuous
active service, it would be unfair to the member and the service
to characterize their limited service. Therefore, his
uncharacterized character of service is correct and in accordance
with DoD and Air Force instructions.
The applicant did not submit any evidence or identify any errors
or injustices that occurred in the discharge processing. He
provided no facts warranting a change to his character of
service.
The DPSOS complete evaluation is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 1 March 2011, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded
to the applicant for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit
D). 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 an error or an 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 its rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the
applicant has failed to sustain his burden of proof of the
existence 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 an 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.
