AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of 
an error or injustice.  The applicant enlisted on 20 September 
2005.  He was demoted to Amn (E-2) on 15 October 2009 as part of 
his court-martial sentence.  His RE code was updated to 4E since 
he was a first-term Airman with the grade of A1C or below.  At 
the time of his Date of Separation (DOS), he was not eligible to 
stay in the Air Force because he held the rank of A1C.  
Ultimately, the applicant was demoted based on his own actions 
and he was appropriately discharged at his DOS and issued the RE 
code of 4E in accordance with the provisions of the governing 
instruction.  

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSOA evaluation is at Exhibit C.

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by

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.
