records, and applicable statutes, regulations and policies, and
enclosures (1) through (3). ,

pertaining to Petitioner's allegations of error and injustice
finds as follows:

a. Petitioner enlisted in the Navy on 31 August 1998. Oni
November 1999, a mental health evaluation was conducted and he ©
disclosed that he had a life-long history of panic attacks with
tightening in his chest and shortness of breath while wearing
head-gear. He was. diagnosed with phobia (claustrophobia) which
existed prior to enlistment (EPTE) and was recommended for
administrative separation. On 1 December 1999, he signed and
acknowledged that he was being assigned an RE-3 reentry code
upon his separation. However, on 7 December 1999, he received
an honorable characterization of service and was assigned an RE-
4 reentry code. Petitioner was eligible to be assigned an RE-3G
reentry code.

CONCLUSION;

Board concludes that it was an error to.assign a reentry code of
RE-4. In this case ig view of his overall record, Petitioner
