Can i reenlist with an RE3P code?

[kkeilitz]

I was discharged in 2004 with an entry level seperation which was characterized on the DD214 as a condition not a disabilty. Am i eligable to reenlist into any branch of service? If so how? <br />
Thank...

HEY, SAM! My DD214 says: RE-3D...what does that mean? AND...what's a DD256N? Never knew what all that abbrev. stuff meant! THANKS, BUBBA!.....DOC

Doc: <br />
<br />
RE-3D- Failure to meet disciplinary standards. Ineligible for enlistment, unless waiver is granted. Demonstrated dependency or hardship not meetinq criteria specified in Bupersman article...

SAM....I was disc. for hardship reasons. My wife, at the time, slit her wrists, and the Red Cross stepped in to hurry my disc. I guess that's why I was pushed out of Orlando N.T.C. Hosp., still on cruthces! I AM a blonde! Don't understand some of the stuff on my DD214....40 years LATER!!! Should have dumped that wife, and volunt. for F.M.F.....AGAIN!! VERY difficult times...for me......DOC

A sad fact is that many administrators and clerks don't completely understand the various codes applied to the DD-214 and what they truly mean....honestly I never knew there were more codes...

If you have a 3P code then you should attempt to PM SSgt Ramsey or SSgt Petzold.

I did receive a PM, and responded...

When RE-3P is assigned, the Marine is supposed to sign a Pg 11 entry stating what the physical problem is and that it must be resolved before further service is granted. Tha's not optional as per the MarCorSepsMan, at least it wasn't when I was a CRS and left in July 2007.

RE-3P by definition means not physically qualified. This may or may not be a disability.

Pseudofolliculilitis (not being able to shave due to bumps) is actually one of them and will preclude your reenlistment as not eligible. Shin splints is another common one I seen, and a host of psychological issues I won't even get into.

I got out in Aug of 1970 and all my 214 says is RE-1. No letters.
I do remember they offered my everything under the sun, but the one thing I wanted, a transfer, I couldn't get it.

Hello, I was discharged in 2006 with a re-3p code and uncharacterized discharge, it has been a few years now and have letters stating I am clear, how can i get back in so I can earn my Eagle Globe...

Well first of off you should fill out a profile, second if you are not a Marine, and never earned the Eagle, Globe and Anchor as you say then you are not a Marine. The reason I say this is because...
