RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-04550
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Reentry (RE) Code of 2C (involuntarily separated with an
honorable discharge) on his DD Form 214, Certificate of Release
or Discharge from Active Duty, be changed so he can re-enlist in
any branch of the service.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
His Re Code is unjust. His record was clean when he joined the
Air Force and it remained clean when he left, with no
disciplinary actions of any kind. There are people who have
been discharged for fighting or violating the Uniform Code of
Military Justice (UCMJ) who received a better RE Code.
In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of his
Recommendation for Discharge letter.
The applicants complete submission, with attachment, is at
Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant entered the Air Force on 18 May 10.
On 14 Dec 10, his commander notified him he was recommending his
discharge for unsatisfactory performance. The basis for the
action was that he failed to make satisfactory performance in
the Aerospace Medical Service Apprentice (Phase I) Course.
Specifically, he failed the National Registry Emergency Medical
Technicians written exam four times. Prior to disenrollment, he
was washed back twice and received 79.5 hours of additional
instruction and counseling. He acknowledged that he consulted
with counsel, and waived his right to submit a statement.
On 20 Dec 10, the case was reviewed and found to be legally
sufficient, his commander recommended he be discharged with an
honorable service characterization, and the discharge authority
directed he be furnished an Honorable discharge on 21 Dec 10.
On 23 Dec 10, he was honorably discharged for unsatisfactory
performance, issued an RE Code of 2C, and was credited with
seven months, and six days of active service.
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are
described in the letters prepared by the Air Force offices of
primary responsibility (OPR) which are attached at Exhibits C
and D.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOS recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of
an error or injustice. The discharge record reveals the
applicant was counseled and afforded an opportunity to improve
his performance, but the results were negative. There was no
evidence of an error or injustice in the processing of the
discharge action, nor did the applicant submit any such
evidence. Based on the documentation on file in his master
personnel records, the discharge was consistent with the
procedural and substantive requirements of the discharge
regulation and was within the discretion of the discharge
authority.
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. Everyone involuntarily separated from
the Air Force with an honorable character of service receives an
RE Code of 2C per AFI 36-2606, Reelistments in the USAF,
Chapter 3. The applicant does not provide proof of an error or
injustice in reference to his RE Code.
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 1 Mar 12 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 (OPR) 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 the
application.
