                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  00-01651
            INDEX NUMBER:  135.02

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Retention Year Ending (RYE)  15  September  1992,  be  changed  from  an
unsatisfactory year to a  satisfactory  year,  by  moving  his  annual  tour
points earned during RYE 15 September 1993 to RYE 15 September 1992.

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His annual tour for RYE 15 September 1992 ran into the next  year.   Due  to
this misalignment, he ended the year one point short of a  good  year.   Had
he realized that his retention year coincided with his  enlistment  date  he
would have scheduled his annual tour sooner.

In support of his appeal, the applicant submitted copies of his annual  tour
orders for the years in question, and a  copy  of  AF  Form  526,  dated  22
November 1999.

Applicant’s complete submission is attached 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 Director of Personnel Program Management,  HQ  ARPC/DPP,  reviewed  this
application and stated the record showed that the  applicant  completed  two
annual tours of active duty from 17 – 27 September 1992 and 16 –  27  August
1993.  A total of 23 active duty (AD) points were  credited  for  these  two
tours.  They stated the applicant’s current records show 23  AD  points,  34
inactive duty training (IDT) points,  0  Extension  Course  Institute  (ECI)
points, 15 membership points, 72 total and retirement points and a  year  of
satisfactory federal service (for RYE 15 September 1993).

They indicated the record  also  showed  for  RYE  15  September  1992,  the
applicant did not complete an annual tour.  His record shows  0  AD  points,
34 IDT points, 0 ECI points, 15 membership points, 49 total  and  retirement
points and an unsatisfactory year of federal service.

They recommended the application be disapproved.  IAW AFM  36-8001,  Reserve
Personnel  Participation  and  Training  Procedures,  points  may  only   be
credited to the date a member actually performed the duty.  It  would  be  a
violation of AFM 36-8001 to credit points to any other date other  than  the
date actually performed (Exhibit C).

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

On 04 August 2000, a copy of the evaluation was forwarded to  the  applicant
for review and comments (Exhibit D).  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 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  probable  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  their  rationale  as  the  basis  for  our
conclusion.  While we were sympathetic to the circumstances surrounding  the
applicant’s request, we found no evidence that the Air  Force  committed  an
error or created an injustice to the applicant.  Therefore, in  the  absence
of evidence to the contrary,  we  find  no  compelling  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 probable 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.

The following members of the Board considered this application in  Executive
Session on 28 September 2000, under the provisions of AFI 36-2603:

      Mr. Wayne R. Gracie, Panel Chair
      Mr. Laurence M. Groner, Member
      Mr. Jay H. Jordan, Member

The following documentary evidence was considered:

    Exhibit B.  Applicant's Master Personnel Records.
    Exhibit C.  Letter, HQ ARPC/DPP, dated 21 Jul 00.
    Exhibit D.  Letter, AFBCMR, dated 04 Aug 00.



                                   WAYNE R. GRACIE

    The other letter the applicant submitted is from an IMA who claims to have also received misguided information when she entered the IMA program.

Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the existence of an error or an injustice.
