Prior Service RE Codes

Click here for more Prior Service programs and information.

Reenlistment Eligibility (RE) codes are contained on military discharge documents (DD Form 214, Record of Discharge) and determine whether or not one may reenlist or enlist in a military service at a later time. A Separation Code is also considered and is a numerical or alphabetic code which defines the reason a discharge was granted. While the primary factor on whether or not one can reenlist lies with the RE Code, the services also use the Separation Codes to determine whether or not one is eligible. An individual’s Separation Code is also found on the DD Form 214.
