RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 99-00385
INDEX CODE: 128.05
COUNSEL: No
HEARING DESIRED: No
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Two extensions of enlistment be canceled so that he will have full
entitlement to the Selective Reenlistment Bonus (SRB).
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
The reasons the applicant believes the records to be in error or
unjust and the evidence submitted in support of the appeal are at
Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The relevant facts pertaining to this application, extracted from the
applicant's military records, are contained in the letter prepared by
the appropriate office of the Air Force. Accordingly, there is no
need to recite these facts in this Record of Proceedings.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
The Chief, Skills Management Branch, HQ AFPC/DPPAE, indicates that,
although there is no evidence (i.e., statement from the Military
Personnel Flight counselor) to indicate the applicant was given
incorrect advice or counseling on his reenlistment options, it appears
his explanation may be valid. Therefore, the Chief defers to the
AFBCMR and explains the corrections necessary should the Board opt to
grant relief.
A complete copy of the Air Force evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A complete copy of the evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 29
March 1999 for review and comment within 30 days. As of this date, no
response has been received by this office.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing
law or regulations.
2. The application was timely filed.
3. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate
the existence of probable error or injustice to warrant relief. The AF
Form 1411 the applicant signed includes his initials on the back
stating he did understand he had 30 days to request extension
cancellation. However, his assertion that he was merely told to
initial all the blocks on the back of the form seems feasible since he
even initialed blocks that were not applicable. The possibility exists
that he was verbally told, as he contends, that his bonus would not be
affected as long as he reenlisted prior to entering the extension.
Therefore, in order to preclude a possible injustice, we believe any
doubt should be resolved in this applicant’s favor and recommend his
records be corrected as indicated below.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:
The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force
relating to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that the extensions of his
14 December 1994 enlistment executed on 23 September 1997 for a period
of one (1) month, and on 11 March 1998 for a period of twenty-two (22)
months, be declared void.
It is further recommended that Section III (D) of AF Form 901,
Reenlistment Eligibility Annex to DD Form 4, executed on 7 December
1998, be corrected to show that the Zone A, Multiple 3 Selective
Reenlistment Bonus is payable for five (5) years and eleven (11)
months, rather than four (4) years and one (1) month.
