On 17 Mar 10, the applicant was notified of pending discharge action. Specifically, the commander cited unsatisfactory performance as the basis for discharge. The applicant failed the National Registry for Emergency Medical Technicians four times. Prior to disenrollment, the applicant was washed back, received two hours of individual assistance and counseling, and attended classes on test-taking and study skills. On 22 Mar 10, she acknowledged receipt, consulted with counsel, and waived her right to submit statements in her own behalf. On 23 Mar 10, the staff judge advocate found the case legally sufficient and recommended discharge. On 31 Mar 10, the discharge authority concurred and directed discharge. The applicant was discharged with an honorable discharge for unsatisfactory performance and a RE code of 2C. She was credited with eight months and ten days of active service. _________________________________________________________________ AIR FORCE EVALUATION: HQ AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial. DPSOA states the applicant’s RE code of 2C is required based on her involuntary discharge with an honorable service characterization. Further, she does not provide proof of an error or injustice in reference to her RE code and only states she wants to rejoin. The complete HQ AFPC/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 26 Nov 10 for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D).

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 error or 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 the applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice.
