							INDEX CODE:  110.00

							HEARING DESIRED: NO

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her reentry (RE) of code 2X (First-term, second term or career airman considered but not selected for reenlistment under the Selective Reenlistment Program) be changed to allow her renter into military service.

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

She received an honorable discharge but the RE code she received made her ineligible for reenlistment.

In support of her appeal, applicant submitted copies of her Enlisted Performance Reports (EPRs).

Applicant's complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.

________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 10 Feb 00, the applicant contracted her initial enlistment in the Regular Air Force.  She was progressively promoted to the grade of staff sergeant having assumed the grade effective and with a date of rank of 1 Feb 05.

On 12 Dec 07, the applicant’s supervisor initiated an AF Form 418 and nonrecommended her for reenlistment.  On 18 Dec 07, the commander concurred and nonselected her for reenlistment.  She acknowledged the nonselection action and indicated her intent to appeal.  Her appeal was denied on 10 Mar 08.

She was honorably discharged on 25 Mar 08.  She served 8 years, 1 month and 16 days on active duty.

________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSOA recommends the requested relief be denied.  Air Force Instruction (AFI) 35-2602 states commanders have selective reenlistment selection or nonselection authority.  Commanders consider the service members EPR ratings, unfavorable information from any substantial source, the airman’s willingness to comply with Air Force standards and the airman’s ability (or lack of) to meet required training and duty performance levels.

DPSOA found no evidence of error or injustice.  The applicant did not provide any evidence to support her request.

AFPC/DPSOA's complete 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 13 Apr 08 and 25 Apr 08 for review and response within 30 days.  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 an injustice.  We took notice of the applicant's 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 that the applicant has failed to sustain her burden of proof of the existence of an error or injustice.  Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we 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.
