I want my RE (Re-Entry Eligibility) code changed.

You should be aware that according to Army Regulation 601-210 (Regular Army and Army Reserve Enlistment Program), the Reentry Eligibility (RE) Code can only be changed if an incorrect code was entered. The RE code is determined by the reason for discharge, not the character of discharge. Soldiers separated with an RE-3 code must seek a waiver from a recruiter to enlist. Depending on the type of discharge and disqualification, a waiver may not be possible. RE codes are not simply changed to allow enlistment

If you feel that your RE code is in error or unjust, you may apply for a review of your RE code. You may apply online at https://actsonline.army.mil or you may print a blank DD Form 149 (Application for Correction of Military Records) from the Army Review Boards Agency website at https://arba.army.pentagon.mil/index.htm and mail your application. You will need to provide with your application evidence to support your contention that your reason for discharge was in error or unjust.
