AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-03922 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

The date of his current reenlistment be changed from 16 Oct 10 
to 30 Sep 10. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

His Military Personnel Flight (MPF) failed to notify him to 
reenlist prior to 1 Oct 10 to receive a Zone 3 Selective 
Reenlistment Bonus (SRB). He was in an Air Force Specialty Code 
(AFSC) eligible for a Zone 3 SRB which was slated for 
elimination from the bonus list. AFI 36-2606, Reenlistment in 
the United Air Force, required the MPF to notify him prior to 
the effective date of his AFSC’s removal from the SRB list so he 
would have the opportunity to reenlist in time to receive the 
bonus. 

 

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

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant currently serves as a member of the Air Force 
Reserve. 

 

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are 
described in the letter prepared by the Air Force office of 
primary responsibility which is included at Exhibit C.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

ARPC/A1K recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of 
an error or injustice. AFI 36-2606 only applies to Regular Air 
Force members and not personnel in the Air Force Reserve, such 
as the applicant. Therefore, the applicant is ineligible for a 
Zone 3 SRB reenlistment bonus. 


A complete copy of the ARPC/A1K evaluation is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 6 Nov 12 for review and comment within 30 days. As 
of this date, no response has been received by this office 
(Exhibit D). 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

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 its 
rationale as the basis for our conclusion the applicant has not 
been the victim of an error or injustice. Therefore, in the 
absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to 
recommend granting the relief sought in this application. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT: 

 

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