         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2012-04462
		 

		COUNSEL:  NONE 

		HEARING DESIRED: NO

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Re-entry (RE) code of 2C, (Approved Honorable Involuntary 
Separation or Entry Level Separation) on his DD Form 214, 
Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, be 
updated.  

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He needs the code 2C to be updated.  

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachment, is at 
Exhibit A. 

________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

1.  The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 
25 January 2011.  

2.  On 3 August 2011, his commander notified him that she was 
recommending him for discharge under the provisions of Air Force 
Policy Directive (AFPD) 36-32, Military Retirements and 
Separations and Air Force Instruction (AFI) 36-3208 
Administrative Separation of Airmen, paragraph 5.26.3. for 
failure to progress in military training required to be 
qualified for service with the Air Force or for performance of 
primary duty.  Specifically, the applicant failed to meet 
academic standards with 4 written exam scores below the minimum 
passing score of 70 percent.  

3.  On 3 August 2011, the applicant acknowledged receipt of the 
commander’s intent to discharge him and on 7 August 2011, he 
opted to consult counsel but waived his right to submit 
statements on his behalf.  Subsequent to the file being found 
legally sufficient the discharge authority approved the 
recommendation and directed that the applicant be discharged 
with an honorable character of service.  

4.  The applicant was discharged effective 19 August 2011 with 
an honorable discharge without probation and rehabilitation. He 
was credited with serving 6 months, and 25 days on active duty.  

______________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial.  DPSOA states the applicant’s RE 
Code 2C is required per AFI 36-2606, Reenlistments in the USAF, 
chapter 3, based on his involuntary discharge with honorable 
character of service. The applicant does not provide any proof 
of an error or injustice in reference to his RE code.  

The complete 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 26 November 2012, for review and comment within 
30 days.  To date, a response has not been received. 

________________________________________________________________

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 
submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered 
with this application.
