_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His reenlistment eligibility (RE) be changed from “Ineligible” to “Eligible” so that he may reenlist in a branch of service of his choosing.

STATEMENT OF FACTS

On 6 April 2005, the applicant's original request was considered and denied by the Board.  When he received his honorable discharge he was told he would be able reenlist in any branch of the service he chose.  Nowhere in any paper was he ever told or made to believe he would not be able to reenlist.  For an accounting of the facts and circumstances surrounding the applicant’s request and the rationale of the earlier decision by the Board, see the Record of Proceedings at Exhibit E.

On 18 January 2005, the applicant submitted a request for reconsideration.  To support his request, he provides a personal statement, and numerous documents relating to his career.  His application includes personal papers, medical records, military service records and legal documents.

Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit F.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

After again reviewing this application and the evidence provided in support of his appeal, we remain unpersuaded that his record should be changed to show him “Eligible” for reenlistment.  We carefully considered the applicant’s statements and documentation and while we consider the evidence provided in support of his request to be new and relevant, we do not find his argument so compelling as to alter our original decision.  The applicant has failed to sustain his burden of having suffered either an error or injustice.  Therefore, in the absence of persuasive evidence to the contrary, we again find no compelling basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this application.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that the application was denied without a personal appearance; and that the application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this application.
