was processed for separation by reason of erroneous enlistment
and not fraudulent enlistment.
The Board also notes that he
apparently enlisted in the North Dakota National Guard after
disclosing the offenses.
The Board believes that if these
juvenile offenses committed eight years ago are no longer
disqualifying when properly disclosed to National Guard
recruiting authorities, he should not have the most restrictive
reenlistment code.
Accordingly, the Board believes that it
would appropriate and just to change the reenlistment code to
RE-3E.

RECOMMENDATION:

a.

That Petitioner's naval record be corrected by changing

the RE-4 reenlistment code, assigned 21 April 1997, to RE-3E.
