Code Explanation

1 Eligible for immediate reenlistment

2 Ineligible for immediate reenlistment but may be eligible for delayed reenlistment

3 Ineligible for immediate reenlistment but eligible for delayed reenlistment upon waiver or resolution of disqualifying factor

ISC - Inter-service Separation Codes

These Inter-service Separation Codes (ISC) were developed by DMDC to enable meaningful cross-service

comparison of separation reason for both enlisted and officer personnel. Originally developed with DoD

Standard Data Element, Separation Program Designator (SPD), ISC codes, in addition to providing cross-

service comparisons, now also enable longitudinal comparison of separation reason regardless of the

change from SPN to SPD.

For the Reenlistment Eligibility Data Display (REDD), ISC code is a direct conversion from the SPD code.

Please note: Although many of the codes have the same meaning for officer and enlisted personnel not

all of them are the same.

Reenlistment Eligibility Service and DMDC Coding of Reenlistment Eligibility

Current Service Codes

The Services have independently developed reenlistment eligibility codes, which reflect distinct

personnel regulations and management philosophies. Coding is attached for all.

DMDC Edit Codes

The original DoD Instruction, tasking the Services to provide extracts of their separation files to DMDC,

specified that reenlistment eligibility should be coded either '1' (eligible) or '2' (ineligible). At various

times, though, one or more of the Services provided more detailed coding which was, in turn, reflected

in the DMDC edited files. In conjunction with a 1978 agreement to provide monthly submissions for use

in an expanded prior service recruiting inquiry system, the Services agreed to submit the complete

reenlistment eligibility coding available on their files.

The following table describes by Service the coding structure of reenlistment eligibility in the DMDC

edited separation files for FY73 - FY82. From FY82 to present, all services have supplied their complete

reenlistment eligibility codes to DMDC. A reference to double-coding descriptions indicates that during

the fiscal year the codes changed from those described by the first reference to those described by the

second reference.
