IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-03685 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His reentry (RE) code of “2H” (Ineligible – Airman in track 4 or 
5 of Substance Abuse Reorientation and Treatment (SART) for 
Alcohol, or failed Track 4) be changed. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He completed the required alcohol abuse program at an accelerated 
rate because he was being offered an early discharge. While 
serving in the military he was recognized for serving above and 
beyond. He did not receive any documents to prove he completed 
the required alcohol classes, but believes his RE code should be 
changed due to his service to his country and the fact that he 
met the mandated requirements of completing the SART program. 

 

In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of his 
DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active 
Duty. 

 

His complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial. DPSOA states the applicant’s 
narrative reason for separation reflects “Early Separation 
Program – Strength Reduction” and an RE code of “2H”. After 
reviewing the applicant’s personnel and medical records, DPSOA 
notes there are no entries showing he completed the SART program. 
In addition, DPSOA requested additional information to support 
his claims; however, the applicant did not respond. DPSOA cannot 
support the applicant’s request since he has failed to provide 
sufficient evidence that calls for a change in his RE code. 

 

The DPSOA complete evaluation is at Exhibit B.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant 
on 15 Apr 11 for review and comment within 30 days. As of this 
date, this office has received no response. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 

 

1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing 
law or regulations. 

 

2. The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the 
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file. 

 

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 that the applicant has 
not been the victim of an error or injustice. Therefore, in the 
absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no 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.
