                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  02-02090
            INDEX NUMBER:  121.00
      XXXXXXXXXXX      COUNSEL:  None

      XXX-XX-XXXX      HEARING DESIRED:  No

___________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

She be paid for eight days of leave she lost when  called  back  to
duty while on permissive temporary duty (PTDY) and terminal leave.

___________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

The legal office at Lackland Air Force Base called her back to duty
to testify at a courts-martial on two occasions while  she  was  on
PTDY and terminal leave resulting  in  her  losing  eight  days  of
leave.

In support  of  her  appeal,  applicant  submitted  a  copy  of  an
Inspector General (IG) complaint  she  filed,  a  copy  of  the  IG
response, and copies of her leave forms.

Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.

___________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The relevant facts  pertaining  to  this  case  are  found  in  the
evaluation prepared by the appropriate  office  of  the  Air  Force
found at Exhibits C and D.

___________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSFM recommends that the applicant be granted partial relief.
 They recommend she be compensated for  five  days  of  leave  vice
eight.  When the applicant was recalled during the period 22-24 May
01, she was on PTDY and did not lose any leave.  The second  recall
during the period 25-29 Jul 01, she was on terminal leave and  lost
five days.

The complete evaluation is at Exhibit C.

AFPC/DPPRRP also recommends that the applicant be  compensated  for
five days of leave.  They provide two options  for  correcting  the
applicant’s records.  One option is to compensate the applicant for
the five days and the other would be to change the  effective  date
of her retirement from 1 Aug 01 to 1 Sep 01.  [Examiner’s note:  If
the Board elects the option of changing the applicant’s  retirement
effective date, it would result in an additional month  of  service
being  credited  to  the  applicant  and  permanently  change   her
retirement pay.  In similar types of cases, the  Board  has  placed
the individual in a TDY status for an appropriate period of time to
offset the lost leave.]

The complete 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 11 Oct 02 for review and comment within 30  days.   To  date,  a
response has not been received.

___________________________________________________________________

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 error or injustice.  The  Board  agrees  with  the
recommendations of the Air Force offices of primary  responsibility
to provide the applicant with partial relief by restoring five days
of leave instead of eight.  The evidence of  record  clearly  shows
that the applicant only lost five days of leave and that she was on
Permissive TDY for the other three days.  Since the  applicant  was
recalled to duty while being charged leave, she is entitled  to  be
compensated for the lost leave.  However, she is only  entitled  to
her normal military pay while in  a  Permissive  TDY  status.   The
Board also notes that the applicant has already sold the maximum 60
days of leave allowed by law, necessitating that we compensate  her
by other means.   Therefore,  we  recommend  that  the  applicant’s
records be corrected as indicted below.

___________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:

The pertinent military records of the Department of the  Air  Force
relating to APPLICANT, be corrected to  show  that  she  was  in  a
temporary duty status for five days beginning 1 May  2001  and  was
paid total per diem the equivalent of five days of basic pay.
