RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-00592
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) code 6H (Pending Discharge -
Involuntary) be corrected.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Through no fault of his own, he was discharged due to being
unable to report for initial active duty training (IADT) within
365 days of enlistment. He was injured while in the National
Guard delayed entry program and was unable to recover within 365
days of his enlistment. His record should reflect an RE code of
6G, instead of 6H.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
According to the applicant's military personnel records, he
initially entered the Air National Guard on 4 Aug 11.
On 30 Sep 12, the applicant was furnished an entry level
separation with uncharacterized service. The reason for this
action was because he tore his Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL)
and was unable to report to basic military training within the
365 days of his enlistment date.
On 5 Dec 13, the applicant was certified medically cleared for
enlistment and submitted a waiver to the National Guard Bureau
(NGB) dated 9 Dec 13, requesting change of his RE code.
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are
contained in the letters prepared by the appropriate office of
the Air Force which is at Exhibit C.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
NGB/A1P recommends approval, indicating a change from RE code 6H
(Pending Discharge - Involuntary) to 6G (Pending Discharge -
Voluntary) is warranted. In accordance with ANGI 36-3209,
Separation and Retirement Procedures for Members of the Air
National Guard and Air Force Reserve, paragraph 3.16.3, if the
member fails to report for scheduled IADT within 365 days of
enlistment, due to no fault of their own, it will be reflected
as a voluntary separation and not involuntary.
A complete copy of the NGB/A1PP 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 28 Jul 14 for review and comment within 30 days
(Exhibit D). In response, the applicant provides a statement in
support of the recommendation (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. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of an injustice. After a thorough
review of the evidence of record and the applicants complete
submission, we believe the applicant is the victim of an error
or injustice. We agree with the opinion and recommendation of
NGB/A1P that relief should be granted and adopt its rationale as
the basis for our conclusion that corrective action is
warranted. Therefore, we recommend the applicants records be
corrected as indicated below.
4. The applicants case is adequately documented and it has not
been shown that a personal appearance with or without counsel
will materially add to our understanding of the issues involved.
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably
considered.
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:
The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air
Force relating to the APPLICANT be corrected to show that at the
time of his discharge on 30 Sep 12, he was issued a reentry code
of 6G rather than 6H.
