AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
The Director, of Personnel Program Management, ARPC/DPP, reviewed this
application and recommends denial. DPP states there is no indication of an
error or injustice. During the RYE 9 March 1993, the applicant had
assignments to Air Force Reserve units and was eligible to participate. A
complete copy of the Air Force evaluation is attached at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 13
July 2001 for review and response within 30 days. As of this date, this
office has received no 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 probable error or injustice. After reviewing the evidence
provided, we are not persuaded that approval of the requested relief is
appropriate. Other than his own assertions, the applicant has provided no
evidence showing he was miscounseled or that he was not provided adequate
information on which to decide the level of Reserve participation required
in order to receive credit for a satisfactory year of Federal service. In
the absence of evidence indicating he was treated differently from other
similarly situated members, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of
the Air Force office of primary responsibility and conclude that the
applicant has not sustained his burden of establishing that he has suffered
either an error or injustice. Accordingly, the applicant’s request is not
favorably considered.
_________________________________________________________________
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.

___________________________________________________________________ APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: Upon his release from active duty, he transferred to the Air Force Reserve and never received an orientation from his unit of assignment on the requirements needed for proper credit toward a good year for retirement.

In their assessment of her claim, the Air Force office of primary responsibility confirms the applicant’s claim concerning the base closing and has recommended her request for credit for a satisfactory year of Federal service for the RYE 4 January 1994 be approved. Since the applicant did not participate a full year towards an active duty retirement, the year cannot be counted as a satisfactory year of federal service. Accordingly, in the absence of evidence indicating she was treated...
