RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-04885
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Reentry (RE) Code of 2C on his DD Form 214, Certificate of
Release or Discharge from Active Duty, be changed.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He self-eliminated from the Aircrew Fundamentals/Basic
Loadmaster Course (AFBLC) and was not afforded the opportunity
to retrain.
In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of his
DD Form 214.
The applicants complete submission, with attachment, is at
Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant entered the Air Force on 26 Jul 11.
On 20 Oct 11, he requested self-elimination from the Aircrew
Fundamentals/Basic Loadmaster Course (AFBLC) for the following
reasons:
a. Inadequate knowledge of, and not suited for, aircrew
responsibilities.
b. Not suited for direct military lifestyle.
In addition, his commander made the following entry onto AETC
Form 125A, Record of Administrative Training Action, the
applicant stated due to personal reasons, he has lost all
motivation to become a Career Enlisted Aviator or to remain in
the USAF.
On 13 Nov 11, the applicants commander notified him that he was
recommending his discharge from the Air Force for entry-level
performance or conduct, specifically reluctance to make the
effort necessary to meet Air Force standards of conduct and duty
performance. The reason for the action was his self-elimination
from the AFBLC. The applicant waived his right to consult with
counsel or to submit a statement on his own behalf.
On 14 Nov 11, his commander recommended he be discharged, and
did not recommend he be reclassified because he lacked the
aptitude and motivation to successfully complete training or
have a successful Air Force career.
On 16 Nov 11, the case was determined to be legally sufficient,
and the discharge authority directed the applicant be
administratively separated on 17 Nov 11. On 18 Nov 11, the
applicant was furnished an entry-level separation with
uncharacterized service and was credited with 3 months and
23 days of active service.
Airmen are given entry-level separation with uncharacterized
service when separation is initiated in the first 180 days of
continuous active service. The Department of Defense (DoD)
determined it would be unfair to the member and the service to
characterize a members limited service when separation is
initiated within the first 180 days of active service.
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are
described in the letter prepared by the Air Force office of
primary responsibility (OPR) which is attached at Exhibit C.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial indicating there is no evidence of
an error or injustice. The applicant does not provide any
evidence that supports a correction of his RE code. The RE Code
of 2C is required per AFI 36-2606, Reenlistment in the USAF,
Chapter 3, based on his entry-level separation with
uncharacterized service.
A complete copy of the 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 10 Feb 12 for review and comment within 30 days. As
of this date, no response has been received by this office
(Exhibit D).
________________________________________________________________
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 opinion and
recommendation of the Air Force office of primary responsibility
(OPR) and adopt its 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.
