IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-00548 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

Her reentry (RE) code of 2X (First term, second term or career 
Airman considered but not selected under the SRP) be changed to 
allow her to enlist into Air Force Reserve. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

She was unaware that her 2X RE code would keep her from entering 
into the Air Force Reserve. At no time was she notified that her 
service would warrant such a code or restriction. There was no 
justification for the admonishment leading up to this code. She 
was not afforded adequate representation or a board hearing. 

 

In support of her request, the applicant provides an expanded 
statement and copies of excerpts of her military personnel 
records. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The relevant facts pertaining to this application are contained 
in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of the Air 
Force. Accordingly, there is no need to recite these facts in 
this Record of Proceedings.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSOS reviewed this application and recommends denial, 
indicating the RE code of 2X is appropriate to the circumstances 
of the applicant’s separation and is required in accordance with 
AFI 36-2602, Reenlistments in the USAF. Commanders have the 
authority to select or nonselect individuals for reenlistment. 
An AF Form 418, Selective Reenlistment/Noncommissioned Officer 
Status Consideration, was initiated by the applicant’s supervisor 
citing the applicant’s counselings for failure to meet dress and 


appearance standards, use of government time for personal 
business, leaving her duty station, lack of productivity, time 
management, tardiness, two letters of reprimand (LORs), and an 
Unfavorable Information File (UIF). On 14 Dec 90, her commander 
nonselected her for reenlistment and noted her recent performance 
report indicated that she was not performing to acceptable Air 
Force standards and was not meeting the expectations of an airman 
or service member who seeks continued active service. The 
applicant acknowledged the nonselection and indicated her desire 
to appeal. However, there is no indication an appeal package was 
submitted. 

 

The complete AFPC/DPSOS evaluation is at Exhibit C.

FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS OF THE BOARD: 

 

We have carefully reviewed the applicant’s submission and the 
evidence of record and do not find a sufficient basis to excuse 
the untimely filing of this application. The applicant did not 
file within three years after the alleged error or injustice was 
discovered as required by Title 10, United States Code, Section 
1552 and Air Force Instruction 36-2603, Air Force Board for 
Correction of Military Records. The applicant has not shown a 
plausible reason for the delay in filing, and we are not 
persuaded the record raises issues of error or injustice which 
require resolution on the merits. Thus, we cannot conclude it 
would be in the interest of justice to excuse the untimely filing 
of this application. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

DECISION OF THE BOARD: 

 

The application was not timely filed and it would not be in the 
interest of justice to waive the untimeliness. It is the 
decision of the Board, therefore, to reject the application as 
untimely.
