AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

JUL  1 4  m 

IN THE MATTER OF: 

DOCKET NUMBER:  98-00479 

COUNSEL:  NONE 

HEARING DESIRED:  NO 

Applicant  requests  that %he  be  entitled  to  the  Selective 
Reenlistment  Bonus  (SRB) . 
Applicant's  submission  is  at 
Exhibit A. 

% 

The  appropriate Air  Force  office  evaluated  applicant's request 
and provided  an advisory opinion  to  the Board  recommending the 
application  be  denied  (Exhibit C).  The  advisory  opinion  was 
forwarded to the applicant for review and response  (Exhibit D) . 
As gf this date, no response has been received by this office. 

After  careful  consideration  of  applicant's  request  and  the 
available  evidence  of  record, we  find  insufficient evidence of 
error or injustice to warrant corrective action.  The facts and 
opinions stated in the advisory opinion appear to be based on the 
evidence  of  record  and  have  not  been  rebutted  by  applicant. 
Absent persuasive evidence applicant was  denied rights to which 
entitled,  appropriate  regulations  were  not  followed,  or 
appropriate  standards  were  not  applied,  we  find  no  basis-  to 
disturb the existing record. 

Accordingly, applicant's request is denied. 

The Board staff is directed to inform applicant of this decision. 
Applicant should also be informed that this decision is final and 
will only be  reconsidered upon the presentation of new relevant 
evidence  which  was  not  reasonably  available  at  the  time  the 
application was filed. 

Members of the Board Mrs. Barbara A. Westgate, Mr.  Frederick R. 
Beaman 111, and Mr. Steven A. Shaw considered this application on 
7  July  1998, in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  Air  Force 
Instruction 36-2603 and the governin3 statute, 10 U.S.C.  1552.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE AFBCMR 
FROM:  HQ AFPCDPPAE 

550 C Street West Ste 10 
Randolph AFB, CA 78150-4712 

SUBJECT: Application for Correction of Military Records 

The applicant is requesting a Selective Reenlistment Bonus (SRB) entitlement. 
On 1 I Dec 97, the applicant reenlisted to obtain PCS retainability for an assignment.  At 

the time of her reenlistment, she had no reason to believe her AFSC would get an SRB or to 
delay her reenlistment until 1998.  On 21 Jan 98, HQ USAFDPXPS announced that her AFSC 
would receive an SRE! of Zone A, Mult of %,  effective 20 Jan 98 or later.  Prior to this date, 
many other personnel in the applicant's career field also reenlisted and did not received an SRB. 
Further, the applicant is not eligible for the Zone A SRB as indicated.  Reenlistment must occur 
prior to six years of service in order to qualify.  In this case, the applicant reached the six year 
service point on 9 Oct 97, thereby negating the SRB entitlement.  The applicant has provided no 
evidence of error, injustice, or miscounseling.  As such, it would not be justified to allow her an 
entitlement not provided to others in a similar situation.  Strongly recommend the applicant's 
request be denied.
