AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-01032
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
IN THE MATTER OF:
_________________________________________________________________
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 allow him to reenter
the military.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He admits his fraudulent entry into the Air Force was wrongful on
his part; however, he was not aware he could get a waiver for his
previous medical condition. He did not have a problem with
Asthma, and had not taken medication for many years. He hopes
his naïve judgment and valuable lesson learned will not prevent
him from his dream of serving in the Air Force.
The applicant has not provided any evidence in support of his
appeal.
The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 30 August
2010. The applicant indicated in Item 10d of his DD Form 2807,
Report of Medical History that he did not have, or ever had
Asthma. According to a Chronological Record of Medical Care,
dated 14 September 2010, it was discovered the applicant had a
history of Asthma, and as a result, it was recommended that he be
separated from the service for this condition.
On 20 September 2010, his commander notified the applicant of his
intent to recommend him for discharge for fraudulent entry under
the authority of Air Force Program Directive (AFPD) 36-32 and Air
Force Instruction (AFI) 36-3208, Chapter 5, Section 5C, Defective
Enlistments, Paragraph 5.15. The applicant acknowledged receipt
and waived his rights to consult counsel and to submit a
statement in his own behalf. On 24 September 2010, the discharge
authority approved the recommended discharge and directed the
applicant be discharged with an entry level separation.
The applicant was honorably discharged effective 28 September
2010, in the grade of airman basic (E-1). His DD Form 214,
Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, reflects
his RE code as “2C” and a narrative reason for separation as
“Fraudulent Entry into Military Service.”
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial. DPSOA states the applicant’s RE
Code of “2C” is required per AFI 36-2606, Reenlistments in the
USAF, based on his involuntary discharge and uncharacterized
service. The applicant does not provide evidence of an error or
injustice in reference to his RE Code.
The complete 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 August 2012, for review and comment within 30 days. 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 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 that 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 that the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that
the application was denied without a personal appearance; and
that the application will only be reconsidered upon the
2
submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered
with this application.
