RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-04377
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His reentry (RE) code of 2C (Involuntarily separated with an
honorable discharge) be changed to allow him reentry into
military service.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He rejected the option to reenlist into another Air Force
Specialty Code (AFSC) after unsuccessfully completing his
initial training. He has now changed his life around and
regrets the decision he made not to stay in the military.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicants military personnel records indicate he enlisted
in the Regular Air Force on 1 June 2005.
On 9 March 2006, the applicant was furnished an honorable
discharge with a narrative reason for separation of
Unsatisfactory Performance and an RE code of 2C (Involuntarily
separated with an honorable discharge). He was credited with
nine months and eight days of total 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 Exhibits C.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of
an error or injustice. The applicant received an RE code of 2C
(Involuntarily separated with an honorable discharge) based on
his involuntary discharge with honorable character of service.
A change in the applicants RE code is not recommended because
it was required in accordance with Air Force Instruction (AFI)
36-2606, Reenlistments in the USAF. While there is not a
discharge package in the applicants record for review, there is
no evidence or proof of an error or injustice in regards to his
reentry (RE) code.
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 9 November 2012 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 not timely filed; however, it is in the
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of probable error or injustice. We
took notice of the applicants complete submission in judging
the merits of this case; however, we find no evidence of an
error or injustice that occurred in the discharge process. We
note the applicants military personnel records did not contain
his discharge package. Therefore, the facts surrounding his
separation and character of service could not be verified.
However, based on the presumption of regularity in the conduct
of governmental affairs, absent evidence to the contrary, we
must assume the applicants discharge, to include his reentry
(RE) code,, was proper and in compliance with the directive
under which it was effected. Therefore, in the absence of
evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend
favorable consideration of the application.
4. The applicants case is adequately documented and it has not
been shown that a personal appearance with or without counsel
will materially add to our understanding of the issues involved.
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably
considered.
________________________________________________________________
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 this
application.
