RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-03670
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His reentry (RE) code of 6U (Not Selected for Retention by
Commander) be changed to a code that would allow him to reenlist.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Somehow his paperwork was sent to the 173rd FW and with no
knowledge that he was to be pulling drills every month he was not
accounted for and discharged due to absence. In 13 years with
the Oregon Air National Guard, he has never missed drills or had
an unexcused absence.
The applicant's complete submission is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The Recommendation for Discharge dated 8 August 2010 reflects the
applicant failed to report for in-processing as well as his
failure to report to any scheduled Unit Training Assemblies
(UTAs), which constituted a discharge for Unsatisfactory
Participation in accordance with AFI 36-3209. He was advised of
his rights in this matter and elected not to submit a statement
on his own behalf. The discharge authority concurred with the
recommendation and directed an honorable discharge.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
NGB/A1PP recommends denial. A1PP states after reviewing the
applicants NGB Form 22 and the discharge notification from 173rd
MSX dated 6 August 2010, it was validated the member was
discharged from the Oregon Air National Guard for unsatisfactory
participation, specifically for failure to in-process and failure
to report to any UTAs since being assigned to the 173rd MXS in
September 2009. The involuntarily separation was conducted in
accordance with AFI 36-3209, Separation and Retirement Procedures
for Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve Members, paragraph
3.13.2.1.1., which states, discharge for unsatisfactory
participation when the commander concerned has determined that
the individual has no potential for useful service under
conditions of full mobilization. Members may be discharged when
the member has accumulated nine or more unexcused absences from
UTA within a 12-month period.
The RE code of 6U identifies a member that has not been
selected for retention by the commander. The 6U code is an Air
Force sanctioned and recognized code and is found in the Military
Personnel Data System (MilPDS). This code only applies to the
Air National Guard and is used when a member is not selected for
further retention in accordance with ANGI 36-2002. This is not a
derogatory code, so should the applicant wish to enlist in an Air
Force Reserve unit it will not be a barrier to his enlistment.
The A1PP complete evaluation is at Exhibit B.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 26 November 2012, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was
forwarded to the applicant for review and response within 30 days
(Exhibit D). As of this date, no response has been received by
this office.
_________________________________________________________________
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 applicants 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.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of an 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 this
application.
