RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF: 	DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-02220

			COUNSEL:  NONE

			HEARING DESIRED:  NO 



APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Reenlistment Code (RE) be changed so he can get back into 
the Air Force and continue his service.


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He served his full term of service honorably and was given an 
ineligible to re-enlist code due to Air Force cuts.

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant initially entered the Regular Air Force on 13 Jun 
06.

According to the applicants AF Form 418, Selective Reenlistment 
Program Consideration for Airmen in the Regular Air Force/Air 
Force Reserve, dated 1 Jun 12, his commander denied him 
reenlistment because he was incapable of performing his duties 
and unwilling to maintain high professional standards.  The 
applicant had behavioral history; he was permanently restricted 
from carrying a weapon.  He established a pattern of misconduct 
consisting of failing to go to his appointed place of duty at 
the time prescribed and being derelict in the performance of his 
duties.  He showed an unwillingness and inability to meet 
required duty performance standards.  He received seven Letters 
of Reprimand (LOR) and five Letters of Counseling (LOC).

On 18 Jun 12, the commander’s recommendation for denial of 
reenlistment for the applicant was found to be legally 
sufficient. 

On 12 Jul 12, the applicant was discharged honorably, and was 
credited with six years and one month 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.  AFI 36-2606, Reenlistment in the 
USAF, states indicates commanders have selective reenlistment 
selection or non-selection authority.  The Selective 
Reenlistment Program (SRP) considers the members 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.  The 
applicant contends he received the RE code of 2X (first-term, 
second term or career airman was considered by not selected for 
reenlistment) because of Air Force cuts and seems to be under 
the belief an honorable character of service corresponds to 
being eligible to reenlist or reenter the military, which is not 
the case.  He was denied reenlistment under the SRP by his 
commander for several infractions of standards that led to the 
applicant receiving seven LOR’s and five LOC’s.  Accordingly, no 
change to the applicant’s RE code is warranted.

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 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.
