RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-04487
COUNSEL: NO
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
1. His entry-level separation with uncharacterized service be
changed to reflect an Honorable discharge.
2. His reentry (RE) code and narrative reason for separation be
changed accordingly so that he may reenlist in the military.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was unaware that he would be discharged if he self-eliminated
from the Pararescue career field. He should have been
reclassified rather than discharged.
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 17 May 11.
On 1 Sep 11, the applicants commander notified him that he was
recommending his discharge from the Air Force for entry-level
performance or conduct. The specific reason for the action was
the applicant was reluctant to make the effort necessary to meet
Air Force standards of conduct and duty performance. The
applicant self-eliminated from the Pararescue Development Course
and, as a result, he was removed from the course.
On 1 Sep 11, the applicant acknowledged receipt of the action,
his right to consult with legal counsel, and submit statements
in his own behalf and, on 6 Sep 11, he waived his right to
consult counsel and submit statements in his behalf.
On 8 Sep 11, the legal office found the case legally sufficient
and, on the same date, the discharge authority directed the
applicant be furnished an entry-level separation.
On 13 Sep 11, the applicant was furnished an entry-level
separation with uncharacterized service with a narrative reason
for separation of Entry Level Performance or Conduct, and
issued an RE code of 2C (Involuntary separated with an
honorable discharge; or entry level separation without
characterization of service). He was credited with 3 months and
27 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 which is attached at Exhibit C.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOR recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of
an error or injustice. Based on the documentation on file in
the master personnel records, the discharge to include the
service characterization was appropriately administered and
within the discretion of the discharge authority. Airmen are
given entry-level separation with uncharacterized service when
separation is initiated in the first 180 days continuous
service. Therefore, his character of service, RE code, and
narrative reason for separation are correct and in accordance
with DoD and Air Force instructions.
A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSOR 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 10 Dec 12 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 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
(OPR) 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.
________________________________________________________________
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.
