IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-02954 

COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His record be corrected to reflect a satisfactory year of 
service for retirement for the period 28 April 2010 to 27 April 
2011 and that he be credited with the accompanying points for 
retirement for the same period of service.

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He was unable to perform the primary duties of his Air Force 
Specialty Code (AFSC) for a period of approximately three months 
due to an injury and subsequent surgery. As a result, he did 
not obtain the minimum of 35 training points required for his 
duty status or a total of 50 points for a satisfactory year a 
service towards retirement. 

 

In support of his appeal, the applicant provides a copy of a 
civilian medical operative report. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachment, is at 
Exhibit A.

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

AFRC/A1K recommends denial. A1K states that in accordance with 
Air Force Instruction 36-2254, Volume I, “Points may only be 
credited to the date a member actually performed the duty, 
except in those activities where the cumulative method is 
authorized, such as telecommuting.” Given the applicant did not 
meet the medical standards to be considered medically qualified 
to participate in any pay or point gaining activity during the 
period in question, the command’s policy that these periods of 
service under such conditions may be excused is applicable. 
However, the command policy does not allow for point crediting 
toward a satisfactory year toward retirement as requested by the 
applicant. 

 

A1K indicates that if it is the Board’s decision to grant the 
relief sought, then the applicant’s record should be corrected 


to show an additional nine non-paid inactive duty training 
points for Retention/Retirement year 28 April 2010 to 27 April 
2011, for a total of 50 points and a satisfactory year of 
service towards retirement. 

 

The complete A1K evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit B.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

On 16 December 2011, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was 
forwarded to the applicant for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit C). As of this date, this office has received no 
response. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 

 

1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by 
existing law or regulations. 

 

2. The application was timely filed. 

 

3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice. We took notice 
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of 
the case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation 
of the Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt 
their rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the 
applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice. 
Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find 
no compelling basis to recommend granting the relief sought in 
this application. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT: 

 

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that 
the application was denied without a personal appearance; and 
that the application will only be reconsidered upon the 
submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered 
with this application.
