RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS.


IN THE MATTER OF: 			DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2015-00527

					COUNSEL:  NONE

					HEARING DESIRED:  YES 


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active 
Duty, Block 27, Reentry (RE) code, be changed from “2X” to a 
code which will allow reenlistment.


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He requested to separate early, was denied, and separated at the 
end of his enlistment. 

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at 
Exhibit A.


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant initially entered the Regular Air Force on 29 Jan 
08.

On 3 Feb 14, the applicant’s commander non-selected him 
reenlistment based on negative quality force indicators.  

On 25 Mar 15, the applicant acknowledged receipt and rendered 
his intent not to appeal his commander’s decision.

On 28 Jan 15, the applicant was furnished an Honorable 
discharge, and was credited with seven years and one day of 
active service.   

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are 
contained in the memorandum prepared by the Air Force office of 
primary responsibility (OPR), which is attached at Exhibit C.    


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial indicating there is no evidence of 
an error or an injustice.  

The applicant was non-selected for reenlistment by is commander 
on 3 Feb 14 and therefore had to separate by his Date of 
Separation of 28 Jan 15.  The applicant acknowledged his non-
selection on 25 Mar 14 and rendered his intent not to appeal the 
decision on the same day.  The applicant’s RE code 2X is based 
on his denial of reenlistment.  

AFI 36-2606, Reenlistment in the United States Air Force, states 
commanders have selective reenlistment selection or non-
selection authority.  The Selective Reenlistment Program 
considers the member’s Enlisted Performance Report (EPR) 
ratings, unfavorable information from any substantiated source, 
the airman’s willingness to comply with Air Force standards 
and/or the airman’s ability (or lack of) to meet required 
training and duty performance levels.  It is clear the 
applicant’s commander had justification for denial of 
reenlistment as he received 2 Letters of Counseling and 3 
Letters of Reprimand within an 18 month period.  Additionally, 
the applicant did not state his RE code was in error, only that 
he applied for and was denied early separation.  Early 
separation would not have had an effect on his RE code; it would 
have still been 2X.   

A complete copy of the 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 9 Jul 15 for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit D).  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 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 
(OPR) and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion 
the applicant has not been the victim of an error of injustice.  
Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find 
no basis to recommend granting the requested relief.

4.  The applicant’s case is adequately documented and it has not 
been shown that a personal appearance with or without counsel 
will materially add to our understanding of the issues involved.  
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably 
considered.


THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

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