RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2013-01220

		COUNSEL:  NONE

		HEARING DESIRED:  NO


________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His reentry (RE) code of 2X (1st term, 2nd term or career airman considered but not selected for reenlistment under the selective reenlistment program (SRP)) and separation program designator (SPD) code of JBK (expiration of term of service) be changed to allow entry into the Air National Guard (ANG) and or the Air Force Reserve (AFRES).  

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His RE and SPD codes do not allow him an opportunity to regain entry into the military without a waiver.  

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

________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 30 March 2009.  

On 15 December 2010, the applicant received a referral Enlisted Performance Report (EPR) for comments relating to his failure to meet the minimum required score on the end of course examination of his career development course.  

On 15 December 2010, the applicant acknowledged receipt of his referral EPR and indicated he did not wish to provide comments.  

On 24 May 2012, an AF Form 418, Selective Reenlistment Program (SRP) Consideration for Airmen in the Regular Air Force/Air Force Reserve, was issued indicating the applicant was not recommended for reenlistment.  

On 30 May 2012, the applicant was not selected for reenlistment.  The applicant’s commander indicated the applicant failed to meet the minimum standards of his Fitness Assessment (FA), three failures in a 24 month period, and that he was not able to maintain the fitness standards without being on a mandatory physical training (PT) program.  

On 31 May 2012, the applicant acknowledged receipt of his notification of reenlistment eligibility and indicated he did not intend to appeal the non-selection for reenlistment decision.  

On 29 September 2012, the applicant was furnished an honorable discharge, with a narrative reason for separation of “Completion of Required Active Service,” along with an SPD code of “JBK” and RE code of “2X.” 

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are described in the letters prepared by the Air Force offices of primary responsibility, which are attached at Exhibits C and D.  

________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of an error or injustice with respect to the applicant’s RE code.  The applicant’s separation was due to being identified as eligible for the FY12 Air Force’s Force Shaping rollback program.  His commander non-selected him for reenlistment and the applicant did not appeal his decision.  In accordance with AFI 36-2606, Reenlistment in the USAF, commanders have selective reenlistment selection or non-selection authority.  The SRP considers the member’s EPR ratings, unfavorable information from any substantiated source, and the airman’s willingness to comply with Air Force standards and/or the airman’s ability (or lack thereof) to meet required training and duty performance levels.  Therefore, the RE code “2X” is consistent with the procedural and substantive requirements of the governing instruction and appropriate for circumstances of the applicant’s separation.  

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSOA evaluation is at Exhibit C.

AFPC/DPSOR recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of an error or injustice with respect to the reason for the applicant’s separation.  Due to the applicant’s denial of reenlistment, he became eligible for the FY12 AF Force Shaping rollback program.  Based on the documentation on file in the master personnel records, the discharge, to include his SPD code, was consistent with the procedural and substantive requirements of the discharge instruction and was within the discretion of the discharge authority.  The applicant did not provide any evidence of an error or injustice that occurred in the discharge processing.  

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSOR evaluation is at Exhibit D.

________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the applicant on 10 July 2013 for review and comment within 30 days.  As of this date, no response has been received by this office (Exhibit E).

________________________________________________________________

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 opinions and recommendations of the Air Force offices of primary responsibility (OPR) and adopt their 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.
