RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF: 			DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-04295

					COUNSEL:  NONE

					HEARING DESIRED:  NO 



APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

He be issued a DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge 
from Active Duty, with a Reentry (RE) code that would allow him 
to reenlist.


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He was not issued a DD Form 214 because he was discharged prior 
to attending basic training due to officer positions not being 
available.

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

According to Reserve Order Number 023, dated 17 Dec 03, the 
applicant was relieved from his assignment and discharged from 
the Air Force Reserve effective 23 Nov 03. 


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

ARPC/DPTS recommends denial indicating there is no evidence of 
an error or an injustice.  Per AFI 36-3202, Separation 
Documents, Section B, paragraph 2.2.3, the DD Form 214 provides 
the separating members with brief, clear records of their active 
military service at the time they are transferred, released, 
discharged or retired.  The applicant has not provided any 
documents proving he was ever placed in an active status 
rendering him eligible to receive a DD Form 214.  As the 
applicant stated, he was discharged from the Air Force prior to 
attending initial training, therefore, his discharge is 
uncharacterized and he is ineligible receive a DD Form 
214.  Since there will be no DD Form 214 created, there will 
also be no reenlistment code documented on a DD Form 214.


The complete DPTS evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit B.


APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 23 Dec 14 for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit C).  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 not timely filed; however, it is in the 
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.

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 
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.
