RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2013-02646
		COUNSEL:  NONE
		HEARING DESIRED:  NO

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

He be paid for the leave he accrued at the time of discharge. 

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He did not receive any pay for his accrued leave upon his 
discharge from active duty.

In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of his 
DD Form 214, Report of Separation from Active Duty.

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

________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 24 Aug 75, the applicant was discharged from the Air Force.  

His DD Form 214, Block 27, Remarks, reflects “Leave balance not 
available at time of separation.”

________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial.  The applicant’s DD Form 214, 
Block 22, Days Accrued Leave Paid, reflects he did not receive 
pay for accrued leave; however, the amount of leave he had 
prior to separation was not annotated on his DD Form 214.  

DPSIM states they were unable to determine how much leave the 
applicant had prior to his separation or how much money he was 
entitled to.

The complete DPSIM evaluation is at Exhibit B.

________________________________________________________________


APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 7 Mar 14, for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit C).  As of this date, this office has not received a 
response.  

________________________________________________________________

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.  After a 
thorough review of the evidence of record and careful 
consideration of the applicant's contentions, we are not 
persuaded that he has been the victim of an error or injustice.  
Although the applicant's contends that he did not receive any 
pay for his accrued leave, he has not provided sufficient 
evidence to show that he was entitled to the pay he is 
requesting.  Therefore, we agree with the opinion and 
recommendation of the Air Force office of primary 
responsibility and adopt its rationale as basis for our 
conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an 
error or injustice.  Absent persuasive evidence that he was 
denied rights to which he was entitled, we find no 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.
