APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

His reentry (RE) code of “2X” (First-term, second-term, or 
career airman considered but not selected for reenlistment under 
the Selective Reenlistment Program) and separation code of “JBK” 
(less than six years of active service), be changed to allow him 
to reenter the military.  

________________________________________________________________
_

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He wanted to reenlist in the Air National Guard (ANG) after 
utilizing the Date-of-Separation (DOS) Rollback Program.  

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

________________________________________________________________
_

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant was discharged in the grade of airman first class 
(E-3) on 31 March 2012 under the Fiscal Year 2012 Force Shaping 
Rollback Program after honorably serving 3 years and 28 days of 
service.  His DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge 
from Active Duty, indicates his RE code as “2X” and his 
separation code as “JBK.”  

The applicant’s record reflects he was selected for the DOS 
Rollback Program by his commander for possessing an RE code of 
“4I” (Serving on the Control Roster).  He was serving on the 
control roster after receiving Article 15 punishment for failing 
to stop for a Massachusetts State Police Trooper when signaled 
to do so, in violation of Article 134, Uniform Code of Military 
justice (UCMJ).  His punishment consisted of forfeiture of $400 
pay per month for two months and reduction to the grade of 
airman basic (E-1), suspended through 21 December 2011, after 
which time it would be remitted without further action unless 
sooner vacated.  

The remaining relevant facts, extracted from the applicant’s 
military service records, are contained in the evaluations 
provided by the Air Force offices of primary responsibility at 
Exhibits C and D.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSOR recommends denying the applicant’s request to change 
his separation code.  DPSOR states the DOS Rollback Program 
utilizes either the separation code “JBK” of “LBK” (more than 
six years of active service), with a corresponding narrative 
reason for separation of “Completion of Required Active 
Service.”  Since the applicant was denied further continuation 
or reenlistment, his DOS or Expiration Term of Service (ETS) was 
involuntarily accelerated.  

The DPSOR evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit C.  

AFPC/DPSOA recommends denying the applicant’s request to change 
his RE code.  DPSOA states the applicant’s supervisor and 
commander non-recommended him for reenlistment on 16 November 
2011.  The applicant acknowledged his non-selection and rendered 
his intent not to appeal the decision.  

The applicant does not provide any proof of an error or 
injustice in reference to his RE code or his non-selection for 
reenlistment.  His non-selection for reenlistment and RE code 
was in accordance with current guidelines. 

The complete DPSOA evaluation is at Exhibit D.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the 
applicant on 14 December 2012, for review and comment within 
30 days (Exhibit E).  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 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 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.
