AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-04827 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His reenlistment eligibility (RE) code 6H, which denotes 
“Pending Discharge in accordance with ANGR 39-10 – Involuntary 
(ANG Only),” be removed from his records. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He was told by a recruiter that the RE Code listed on his NGB 
Form 22, Report of Separation and Record of Service, is 
incorrect and prevents him from reenlisting in active duty until 
the code is corrected. 

 

His RE code was not updated after his separation. 

 

He was told that this code states he is currently in the 
National Guard. 

 

In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of his 
NGB Form 22. 

 

The applicant's complete submission, with attachment, is at 
Exhibit A.

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant was honorably discharged from the Air National 
Guard (ANG) effective 13 May 2012 for unsatisfactory 
performance. His discharge was in accordance with AFI 36-3209, 
Separation and Retirement Procedures for Air National Guard and 
Air Force Reserve Members. 

 


 

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application, 
extracted from the applicant’s military records, are contained 
in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of the Air 
Force at Exhibit C.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

NGB/A1POE recommends denial. A1POE states the applicant’s 
discharge was in accordance with Air Force policies and 
procedures, and no evidence was provided to show an error of 
injustice has occurred. The applicant was discharged for 
unsatisfactory participation when his commander determined he 
had no potential for useful service under conditions of full 
mobilization. A1POE states, personnel may be discharged when 
they have accumulated nine or more unexcused absences from Unit 
Training Assembly (UTA) within a 12 month period. 

 

The applicant was discharged for unsatisfactory participation, 
and was given a reenlistment eligibility code of 6H. This code 
is applied when a member is pending or approved for involuntary 
separation/discharge in accordance with AFI 36-3209. 

 

The complete A1POE evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit C. 

 

NGB/A1PS concurs with A1POE’s advisory, and therefore, does not 
recommend the requested relief. 

 

The complete A1PS evaluation is at Exhibit D.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

On 11 May 2012, copies of the Air Force evaluations were 
forwarded to the applicant for review and comment within 
30 days. As of this date, no response has been received by this 
office (Exhibit E). 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

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 error or injustice. We took notice 
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of 


the case; however, we agree with the opinions and 
recommendations of the Air Force offices of primary 
responsibility and adopt their rationale as the basis for our 
conclusion 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.
