RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF: 	DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-01746

			COUNSEL:  NONE

			HEARING DESIRED:  NO 



APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Separation Program Designator (SPD) and Reentry (RE) codes 
be changed to allow him to re-enlist into Air Force Reserve. 


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He was informed that he could continue serving his time in the 
Reserve upon his discharge from the Air Force. 

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant initially entered the Regular Air Force on       
21 Aug 96.

On 1 Feb 13, according to an AF Form 416, Selective Reenlistment 
Program (SRP) Consideration for Airmen in the Regular Air 
Force/Air Force Reserve, the applicant’s supervisor recommended 
he be denied reenlistment.

On 1 Feb 13, the applicant’s commander concurred with the 
supervisor’s recommendation and denied the applicant 
reenlistment, indicating the applicant had failed five fitness 
assessments in the last 24 months and, as a result, was issued 
two letters of reprimand and an unfavorable information file 
(UIF) was established.  

On 26 Sep 13, the Secretary of the Air Force’s designee denied 
the applicant’s appeal of non-selection of re-enlistment  under 
the provisions of AFI 36-2606,  Reenlistment In The United 
States Air Force.

On 14 Dec 13, the applicant was honorably discharged, issued a 
narrative reason for separation of “Non-Retention on Active 
Duty,” an RE code of 2X (1st term, 2nd term or career airman 
considered but not selected for reenlistment), an SPD code of 
LGH, and was credited with 17 years, 3 months, and 24 days 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/DPSOR recommends denial indicating there is no evidence of 
an error or an injustice.  The applicant was separated under the 
FY13 Force Management Program with an RE code of 2X, first-term, 
second term or career airman, considered but not selected for 
reenlistment under the Selective Reenlistment Program (SRP). 
Based upon the applicant's denial of reenlistment, he was 
properly separated with a Separation Code of"LGH"- "Nonretention 
on active duty" which was properly reflected on his DD Form 214.  
Based on the documentation on file in the master personnel 
records, the release from active duty was consistent with the 
procedural and substantive requirements of the SecAF memorandum 
and was within the discretion of the discharge authority.

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSOR 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 4 Aug 14 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.



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.
