What does RE Code NA mean?

My DD214 has an RE code of NA. (Honorable discharge after 5 years) Googling suggests this is either because I was commissioned or because I still owed IRR time.
Can anyone clarify?

It's more than likely because you're an Officer.

You're a Naval Officer or Midshipman (BUPERSINT 1900.8E*, Enclosure 1, para 3jj(2))

Reenlistment code, determines your eligibility for reenlistment. RE1-4, 1 is golden, 2 can result in delays in reenlistment, 3 is often a bar for reenlistment in one particular service and 4 is never again. I got 80% disability from the Army and 200% VA, so I'm RE4; a complete medical wreck. If I was a vehicle, I'd be totaled! So I can inly be recalled by avt of congress. RE codes are based on medical limitations and good or vad behavior .

NA is military slang for Not Applicable. The guvment does not like any blanks on their forms, so it keeps from having any.

It states NA for an RE code because it is not applicable for Officers to have a Reenlistment code. You don't need it.
