RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-04590
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her reentry (RE) code of 2C (entry-level separation with
uncharacterized service or involuntary honorable discharge) be
changed so that she can be eligible to rejoin the military.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Her RE code is incorrect because she did not commit any uniform
code of military justice (UCMJ) violations. She should be given
the opportunity to return to military service because there are
no negative reports in her records.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant commenced her service in the Regular Air Force on
27 April 2010.
On 4 November 2010, the applicants commander notified her that
he was recommending her discharge from the Air Force for
unsatisfactory duty performance. Specifically, her failure to
progress in military training required to be qualified for
service. The reasons for the action included five block test
failures during technical training and her weapons qualification
failure.
On 4 November 2010, the applicant acknowledged receipt of the
action.
On 5 November 2010, the applicant consulted with legal counsel,
and waived her right to submit statements in her own behalf.
On 17 November 2010, the case was found legally sufficient and,
on 17 November 2010, the discharge authority directed the
applicant be furnished an honorable discharge, without probation
and rehabilitation.
On 22 November 2010, the applicant was honorably discharged and
issued an RE code of 2C and narrative reason for separation of
Unsatisfactory Performance. She was credited with 6 months
and 26 days of total active service.
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are
contained in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of
the Air Force, which is attached at Exhibit C.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of
an error or injustice. Based on the applicants involuntary
discharge with honorable character of service, the RE code 2C is
required per AFI 36-2606, Reenlistments in the USAF. The
applicant believes that the only way to receive a RE Code 2C is
to commit an UCMJ violations or receive a negative report;
however, her assertion is inaccurate.
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 26 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 timely filed.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
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. The
Reentry (RE) code of 2C issued in conjunction with the
applicants honorable discharge was appropriate to the
circumstances and required in accordance with the governing
instruction. 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.
