RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-02323
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His reentry (RE) code of 4L (Separated Commissioning Program
Eliminee) be changed to a code that would allow him to reenlist.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He desires to reenlist.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant entered military service at the Air Force Academy
on 27 June 2013.
On 5 March 2014, the applicant was honorably discharged under
the provisions of AFI 36-3202 (Secretarial Authority).
DD Form 785, Record of Disenrollment from Officer Candidate
Type Training, reflects the applicant was administratively
separated from cadet status due to a voluntary resignation in
lieu of involuntary disenrollment for academic deficiency. At
the time of his resignation he was on academic probation but
there were no other adverse actions in his record. His Air
Officer Commanding (AOC) stated that the applicant showed a
capacity for officership, including significant growth and
development in the short time he had been at USAFA.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
USAFA/A1A recommends denial. A1A states the governing directive
for reenlistment eligibility codes is AFI 36-2606, Reenlistment
in the United States Air Force. The only RE code that applies,
by verbiage alone, is separated commissioning program eliminee
(OTS, AECP and so on). Since the Air Force Academy is a
commissioning program, this code is appropriate regardless of
the reason for separation.
The RE code used is appropriate and is consistent with the Air
Force and DoD guidance.
The A1A complete evaluation is at Exhibit C.
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 27 October 2014, a copy of the evaluation was forwarded to
the applicant for review and response within 30 days (Exhibit
D). 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 is timely filed.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice. After a
thorough review of the evidence of record, it is our opinion
that given the circumstances surrounding his separation from the
Air Force, the RE code assigned was proper and in compliance
with the appropriate instructions. In addition, the applicant
has not provided any evidence which would lead us to believe
that a change in his record to allow him to reenlist is
warranted. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find
no basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this
application. Therefore, we agree with the Air Force office of
primary responsibility and adopt its rationale as the basis for
our conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an
error or injustice. In the absence of 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 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.
