EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The applicant was discharged for Entry Level Performance And Conduct while at Recruit Training in the 
summer of 2013.
The separation occurred after just 12 days at boot camp. The applicant claimed to be quickly separated from 
the forming company due to a medically disqualifying condition. Thereafter, the applicant claims to be 
mistakenly categorized as 'Refusing to Train'. The applicant claims to only have known this after departing the 
Training Center and reading the Discharge documents on the way home.
Contrary to the applicant's claims, attorney brief, and chronological timeline while at Recruit Training, the 
applicant signed the notification of the discharge process prior to departing which clearly read in boldface as 
'Refusal to Train' (two days before the Discharge). Additionally, the Discharge Routing Sheet shows 
signatures from the Regimental Officer, Training Officer, Executive Officer and Commanding Officer. The 
documentation is consistent with the discharged issued.
The Board also notes that the DD-214 with 'Entry Level Performance and Conduct' reads the exact same as 
most former members who are unable to compete recruit training. There is no mention of refusal to train or a 
medically disqualifying condition listed anywhere on the DD-214. The Board finds no issues with propriety or 
equity in this case.
An uncharacterized character of service is not derogatory in nature and is the prescribed character for 
individuals who were separated while at initial accession training and there was no associated conduct 
to warrant a less desirable character of service.
An RE3 reentry code is not an affirmative recommendation for reenlistment, rather it represents that the 
applicant is not recommended for reenlistment due to a disqualifying factor. The RE3 code may be 
waived based upon the policies and needs of the gaining Service.
Propriety:	Discharge was proper.
Equity:	Discharge was equitable.
Final Adjudication by Assistant Commandant For Human Resources: Discharge will stand as issued.
