RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2013-04160

			COUNSEL:  NONE

			HEARING DESIRED: NO


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Additional inactive duty training points be added to her record 
of Air Force Reserve (AFRES) service for the anniversary year 
ending on 14 April 1993.  


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

All of her Unit Training Assembly (UTA) points are accounted for 
except for January 1993 and two (2) points in February 1993.  
She believes this is an error.  If not corrected it denies her a 
creditable year of service for 1992 through 1993.  She resigned 
from the Air Force Reserve in April 1993 when she found out she 
was pregnant.  

In support of her request, the applicant submits copies of her 
enlistment order, assignment order and documents pertaining to 
her point credit summary.  

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is a former member of the Air Force Reserve who 
served from 6 May 1991 until her resignation on 14 April 1993.  

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are 
contained in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of 
the Air Force at Exhibit C.  



AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

ARPC/DPTS recommends denial.  DPTS states the applicant claims 
her AF Form 526, ANG/USAFR Point Credit Summary, does not 
reflect all of the Unit Training Assemblies (UTAs) she performed 
during the retirement year ending 14 April 1993.  She alleges 
two (2) points for 7 February 1993 should be recorded, along 
with an unstated amount of points for the January 1993 UTA.  
However, the applicant has not provided documentation to verify 
her participation for the missing dates.  They contacted the 
applicant on 24 October 2013, to determine if she, in fact, 
could produce the documentation for administrative relief.  The 
applicant does not have the proof required.  If a member does 
not have a Leave and Earnings Statement verifying participation, 
he/she can send an inquiry to AMPO-VERIFY-INQUIRIES@dfas.mil, 
requesting proof-of-pay for those specific dates.  The applicant 
stated she previously contacted DFAS but must try again for 
proof-of-pay.  The burden of proof is with the applicant.  As 
stated on the point credit summary, the member was instructed to 
review the summary and report errors within 30 days of receipt.  

The complete ARPC/DPTS 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 21 February 2014, for review and comment within 30 
days (Exhibit D).  To date, a response has not been received. 


THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

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

2.  The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the 
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.  

3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice.  We took careful 
notice of the applicant’s complete submission in judging the 
merits of the case; however, we note the Air Force office of 
primary responsibility recommends denial because the applicant 
did not provide any documentary evidence to substantiate her 
request.  In view of this, we agree with the opinion and 
recommendation of the Air Force office of primary responsibility 
and adopt its rationale as the basis for our decision that the 
applicant has failed to sustain her burden of having suffered 
either 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.  However, the Board is 
willing to reconsider the applicant’s request should she produce 
the documentation to verify her participation during the missing 
dates.  


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.
