RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

 

 
DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2012-02728

IN THE MATTER OF: 
   
   
 
    
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 
 
His  reentry  (RE)  code  be  changed  to  allow  him  to  rejoin  the 
military. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 
 
He  was  not  told  that  he  would  not  be  allowed  to  rejoin  the 
military at the time of his discharge. 
 
The applicant does not provide any supporting documentation. 
His complete submission is at Exhibit A.  
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
STATEMENT OF FACTS: 
 
The applicant enlisted into the Regular Air Force on 19 Aug 08.   
 
His  commander  notified  him  that  he  was  recommending  that  he  be 
discharged from the Air Force under the provisions of AFPD 36-32 
and  AFI  36-3208,  Chapter  5,  paragraph  5.49,  Minor  Disciplinary 
Infractions.    After  a  legal  review,  the  Deputy  Staff  Judge 
Advocate  found  it  legally  sufficient.    The  applicant  was 
discharged with an under honorable conditions (general) discharge 
and a RE code of “2B” (Separated with a general or under-other-
than-honorable-conditions  (UOTHC)  discharge)  on  9  Jun  09  after 
serving 9 months and 21 days on active duty. 
 
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are 
contained in the letters prepared by the appropriate offices of 
the Air Force, which are at Exhibit C and D. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
AFPC/DPSOR  recommends  denial  and  states  that  the  applicant’s 
discharge to include his character of service was consistent with 
the  procedural  and  substantive  requirements  of  the  discharge 

 

 

 
instructions and was within the discharge authority’s discretion.  
Further,  the  applicant’s  misconduct  clearly  outweighs  the 
positive aspects of his service and every effort was made by his 
supervisory  chain  to  rehabilitate  him;  however,  he  did  not 
overcome the deficiencies. 
 
The complete DPSOR evaluation is at Exhibit C. 
 
AFPC/DPSOA  recommends  denial  by  stating  that  his  RE  code  is 
correct  per  the  general  discharge  that  he  received  and  is 
required  by  AFI  36-2606,  Reenlistments  in  the  USAF.    The 
applicant  has  not  provided  any  proof  of  an  error  or  injustice 
occurring with regard to his “2B” RE code. 
 
The complete DPSOA evaluation is at Exhibit D. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
Copies  of  the  Air  Force  evaluations  were  forwarded  to  the 
applicant on 17 Sep 12 for review and comment within 30 days.  As 
of this date, this office has received no response. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
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 an error or injustice.  Applicant’s 
contentions  are  duly  noted;  however,  we  are  not  persuaded  that 
the applicant has been the victim of an error or injustice.  At 
the  time  members  are  separated  from  the  Air  Force,  they  are 
furnished an RE code predicated upon the quality of their service 
and circumstances of their separation.  After a thorough review 
of  the  evidence  of  record,  we  believe  that  given  the 
circumstances surrounding the applicant’s separation, the RE code 
issued  was  in  accordance  with  the  appropriate  directives.  
Therefore,  we  find  no  basis  upon  which  to  recommend  favorable 
action on 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.
