RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-04281
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Reentry (RE) Code 2C which denotes Involuntarily
separated with an honorable discharge or entry level separation
without characterization of service be changed to 1 which
denotes Applicants Eligible for Immediate Reenlistment to
allow reenlistment in the Armed Forces.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
The RE code is unjust because the training course for Air Force
Specialty Code (AFSC) 1T211, Pararescue, has a high wash out
rate.
He agrees with the prior service discharge but it is
unjustifiable to not allow him to reenter in another career
field.
The applicants complete submission, with attachment, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 10 Jul 12, the applicant entered the Regular Air Force.
On 11 Sep 12, the applicant was notified by his commander that
he was recommending he be discharged In Accordance With (IAW)
AFI 36-3208, Administrative Separation of Airmen, paragraph
5.22.2.4. The specific reason was the applicant self-eliminated
from the Pararescue Development Course. As a result he was
removed from training and not recommended for reclassification
consideration.
On 18 Sep 12, the assistant staff judge advocate found the
discharge recommendation legally sufficient.
On 25 Sep 12, the separation authority approved the discharge
recommendation.
On 28 Sep 12, he was discharged with a RE code of 2C.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial of the applicants request to
change his RE code to the 1# series. The applicant was
involuntarily separated for Entry level performance or conduct
and was discharged on 28 Sep 12 after serving 2 months and
19 days on active duty with an uncharacterized character of
service. He received a RE code of 2C as required by AFI 36-
2606, Reenlistment in the USAF, chapter 5 based on his ELS with
uncharacterized character of service.
On 25 Sep 12, the 37th Training Group Commander (37 TRG) directed
he be discharged with an ELS for reluctance to make the effort
necessary to meet Air Force standards of conduct and duty
performance. AFI 36-2606, chapter 5 states not to separate
airmen in the RE code 1# series except RE code 1J which
denotes Eligible to reenlist but elects separation. All
airmen selected under the Selective Reenlistment Program (SRP)
and elect separation are given RE code 1J. The applicant
cannot be awarded a RE code 1J as his commander recommended
him for separation which is in line with being denied
reenlistment by his commander under the SRP. RE code 2C is
the correct RE code.
A complete copy of the DPSOA 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 12 Jan 15 for review and comment 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 was timely filed.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice. 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 office of primary responsibility
and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion the
applicant has not been the victim of an error of injustice.
Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find
no basis to recommend granting the requested relief.
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.
