RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF: 	DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-00931

					COUNSEL:  NONE

		HEARING DESIRED:  NO



APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active 
Duty, be corrected to reflect the following:

1.	His Separation Program Designator (SPD) code as JBK 
(expiration of term of service) instead of JGH (expeditious 
discharge).

2.	His primary Air Force Specialty Code (AFSC) airframe be   
F-15 instead of F-16 (Administratively resolved).


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He was advised during the application process for separation, 
the SPD code of JBK was the proper code for his circumstances.  
His signed request for separation form (AF IMT 100, Selective 
Reenlistment Program Consideration) and the Reenlistment 
Eligibility Data Display (REDD) report, dated 18 Jun 13, 
substantiates his contention JBK as the proper code.  Further, 
because he fulfilled the complete term of his enlistment, JBK 
more accurately describes his service.

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 15 Apr 08, the applicant initially entered the Regular Air 
Force.

On 4 Mar 13, the applicant’s commander notified him he was not 
selected for reenlistment via AF Form 418, Selective 
Reenlistment Program Consideration, under the FY13 Enlisted Date 
of Separation (DOS) Rollback Program due to misconduct in 
November 2012.


On 4 Mar 13, the applicant acknowledged receipt of the non-
selection for reenlistment notification and stated his intent to 
appeal.  The applicant sought legal counsel and submitted 
statements on his own behalf.  The commander denied the appeal 
on 10 Apr 13.

On 1 May 13, the applicant’s request for separation orders (AF 
IMT 100) identified his SPD code as JBK (expiration of term of 
service) and his RE code as 2X.

On 31 May 13, the applicant was furnished an honorable 
discharge, with and SPD code of JGH (expeditious discharge) and 
RE code 2X, and was credited with 5 years, 1 month, and 16 days 
of active service.

On 6 Mar 14, the AFBCMR considered and denied the applicant’s 
request to remove nonjudicial punishment under Article 15 and to 
change his RE code of 2X. 

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


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSOR recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of 
an error or injustice.  The applicant’s commander did not 
recommend him for reenlistment under the 2013 DOS rollback 
program because the applicant received nonjudicial punishment 
for willfully failing to follow a technical order, for which he 
received a suspended reduction in grade, forfeiture of pay, and 
restriction to his military installation.  He was subsequently 
separated with a RE code of 2X (first-term, second term or 
career airman was considered but not selected for reenlistment 
under the Selective Reenlistment Program (SRP)).  Due to the 
release date of the DOS Rollback program, the SPD code the “JBK” 
was not yet available in the military personnel database when he 
applied for separation; therefore, JGH was the appropriate SPD 
code.  Between the date he applied for separation and the date 
he was separated, the SPD code of JGH was updated in the 
military personnel database and appropriately reflects the 
conditions of his separation.

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

AFPC/DPSIC recommends granting relief to correct the duty AFSC, 
indicating there is sufficient evidence of an error or 
injustice.  Pending the board’s final decision, the applicant’s 
DD Form 214, item 11, will be administratively corrected to 
state 2A353L, Tactical Aircraft Maintenance (Legacy) Journeyman, 
F-15.  Years and months of service are not impacted and should 
remain the same.

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


APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the 
applicant on 28 Jul 14 for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit E).  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 timely filed.

3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice warranting 
correction of the applicant’s records to reflect a change to his 
Separation Program Designator (SPD) code.  We took notice of the 
applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of the 
case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of 
AFPC/DPSOR and adopt its rationale as the basis for our 
conclusion the applicant has not been the victim of an error or 
injustice.  Additionally, we note AFPC/DPSIC has determined the 
applicant’s primary Air Force Specialty Code (AFSC) airframe be 
F-15 instead of F-16, and will correct his records 
administratively.  Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the 
contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting relief beyond 
that rendered administratively.


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.
