RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 02-01062
INDEX CODE: 135.02
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His pay grade be changed from E-3 to E-4.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
When he was an Air Force Reserve member he was given two DD Form 214s--
after basic training and after completing a long TDY to Lackland AFB.
When the Regular Air Force processed his paper work they used the DD Form
214 from basic training not his recent one. This caused him to lose most
of his active duty time and all of his time as a senior airman.
In support of his application, he provides copies of his DD Form 214s and
AF Form 938s, Request and Authorization for Active Duty Training/Active
Duty Tour. The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The Military Personnel Data System reflects that on 19 February 2002, the
applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force in the grade of senior airman
(E-3) with an effective date of rank of 1 July 2000. His Total Active
Federal Military Service Date (TAFMSD) is 8 March 2001. He has an
Expiration Term of Service of 18 February 2006.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPAE recommends the application be denied. DPPAE states that at the
time of the applicant’s enlistment, he had accumulated 9 months and 16
days TAFMS through his service with the Reserve. AFI 36-2002, Regular Air
Force (RegAF) and Special Category Accessions, outlines the minimum amount
of TAFMS required to enlist in a grade previously held in a branch other
than the RegAF. To enlist in the grade of E-4 requires 2 years TAFMS.
The DPPAE evaluation is at Exhibit C.
AFPC/DPPAO verified that the applicant’s Total Active Federal Military
Service Date is 8 March 2001.
The AFPC/DPPAO evaluation is at Exhibit D.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 30
March 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 timely filed.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the
existence of error or injustice. After a thorough review of the evidence
presented, we are not persuaded that favorable consideration of the
applicant’s request is appropriate. Evidence reflects that the applicant
accumulated 9 months and 16 days of Total Active Federal Military Service
(TAFMS) through his service with the Air Force Reserve and did not
accumulate the 2 years TAFMS required to enlist in the Regular Air Force
in the grade of E-4. Therefore, we are in complete agreement with the
opinion and recommendation of the Air Force office of primary
responsibility and adopt their rationale as the basis for our conclusion
that the applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice.
Accordingly, 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 probable material error or injustice; that the
application was denied and that the application will only be reconsidered
upon the submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered
with this application.
