RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2013-05108
		COUNSEL:  NONE
		HEARING DESIRED:  NO


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His entry level separation be changed to an honorable discharge.


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He desires to join the Air National Guard.

In support of the applicant’s appeal, he provides a copy of his 
DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active 
Duty.

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 24 July 1985.

The applicant was notified by his commander of his intent to 
recommend that he be discharged from the Air Force under the 
provisions of AFR 39-10 (Entry Level Performance and Conduct).  
The specific reasons are the results of the applicant’s academic 
failures and disenrollment from both the 70230 and 
42731 courses.  Further, he has had to be disciplined for his 
inappropriate conduct and duty performance in the squadron.  His 
lack of motivation and desire to be discharged from the Air 
Force also are reasons to indicate he would not be a part of the 
quality force the Air Force needs. 

He was advised of his rights in this matter and after consulting 
with counsel he elected to waive his right to submit a statement 
on his own behalf.  In a legal review of the case file, the 
staff judge advocate found the case legally sufficient and 
recommended discharge.  The discharge authority concurred with 
the recommendation and directed the applicant be discharged.  
The applicant was discharged on 23 December 1985 with an entry 
level separation.  He served 5 months on active duty.



On 14 July 2014, a request for information pertaining to his 
post-service activities was forwarded to the applicant for 
review and response within 30 days (Exhibit C).  As of this 
date, no response has been received by this office.


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 error or injustice.  The evidence 
of record indicates the applicant was given an entry level 
separation for entry level performance and conduct based on his 
failure to make satisfactory progress in a required training 
program.  Because he was within his first 180 days of active 
service, he was given an entry level separation with 
uncharacterized service.  We find no evidence which would lead 
us to believe that his entry level separation with 
uncharacterized service was improper or contrary to the 
governing instruction under which it was affected.  In view of 
the foregoing, and in the absence of sufficient evidence to the 
contrary, we conclude that the applicant has failed to sustain 
his burden of establishing he has suffered either an error or an 
injustice.  Accordingly, we find no compelling 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 an 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.
