Thanking you in advance even if you can help us or not.

I'm not sure how to link in a previous thread - however, if you do a search under reenlistment code you will see a thread from Feb of 2006 that discusses how to do this.

There's also a link in the upper right hand corner of the home page - FREE DD214 - that has instructions on how your husband can get a copy of his DD214.

I omitted to mention that the link I provided is not an easy read but rather "matter of fact" and opinionated.

I have a re-enlistment code or RE-3P. I had a bronchial infection that wouldn't clear up when I was serving with the Marine Corps Reserve unit in Battler Creek Michigan while I went to college. I had been accepted into the PLC Officer Candidate program and was scheduled to go to OCS that summer.
Obviously, I didn't end up being able to go. I was put on Temporary Non Physically Qualified status and then discharged becasue they were worried that I might have some form of asthma (i.e.- exercise induced asthma) . Does anybody know how that might effect my ability to re-enlist? What about applying for officer candidacy again? I have gone to see a Pulminary Specialist to see what I need to do to show that I don't have astma of any type. Where do I go from there?

You need to talk to a re enlistment recruiter. They are located at the Marsh center on Quantico.
An re 3p means you need a letter from a doc saying you are without a doubt physically able to perform as a Marine. Get a waiver from the recruiter for the re 3p.
Also, you would need to get any sep pay waived.

Bonita the same applies to your FORMER Marine.
