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 one that would allow
him to enlist in the Air National Guard.

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was told that his RE code would be changed six months after
his discharge. Additionally, he was unaware he would only have
one week to adjust from basic military training (BMT) to the
requirements of the para-rescue indoctrination course. Other
indoctrination classes had significantly more time to make the
adjustment.
The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.

AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of
an error or injustice. The RE code of 2C is required per AFI 36-
2606, Reenlistments in the USAF, based on the applicant’s entry-
level separation with uncharacterized service. The applicant has
not provided any proof of an error or injustice that supports a
correction to his RE code.
The complete AFPC/DPSOA evaluation is at Exhibit C.

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant
on 12 Apr 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
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 applicant be notified the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; the
