severance pay that was computed under Section 1212 of 10 U.S.C.

applicant on 22 Mar 13 for review and comment within 30 days.

________________________________________________________________
_
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. While we find
his desire to serve his country commendable, we are not
persuaded by the evidence submitted in support of his appeal,
that a change in his RE code is warranted. 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 offices of primary responsibility, and adopt their
rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has
not been the victim of an error or injustice. In the absence of
persuasive 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 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.
