AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 03-00156
INDEX CODE: 110.02
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, Item
11, Primary Specialty, be corrected to read “A11450 (Aircrew, Aircraft
Loadmaster) and 47251C (Special Vehicle Mechanic, Materials Handling
Equipment.”)
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
His AF Form 2096, Classification/On-The-Job Training Action, reflects his
correct Air Force Specialty Codes (AFSCs).
In support of his request, applicant submits a copy of his AF Forms 2096.
The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 1 February 1979 in the
grade of E-1 for a period of 4 years. He was progressively promoted to the
grade of senior airman (E-4) effective 1 April 1981. On 19 October 1981,
the applicant was discharged from the Air Force for misconduct due to drug
use and issued a general discharge. He had served 2 years, 8 months and 19
days on active duty.
On 24 February 2003, after a review of his military personnel record, the
Classification Branch, determined that there was an error on his DD Form
214. On 3 March 2002, the Separations Procedure Separations Branch,
corrected the applicant’s DD Form 214 by issuing a DD Form 215, to reflect
correct periods of service for each AFSC (See Exhibit B).
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to his AFSCs, are contained in the
letter prepared by the appropriate office of the Air Force at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPAC recommends the application be denied. DPPAC states AFSC A11430,
Aircrew, Apprentice Aircraft Loadmaster, was withdrawn 17 June 1980 due to
incapacity to perform required duties. For AFSC 472X1C, Special Vehicle
Maintenance Materials Handling Equipment, applicant failed to complete
upgrade training to the 5-skill level due to his discharge for misconduct.
DPPAC also states that personnel records reflect that the periods of
service for AFSCs A11430 and 47231C differ from the period indicated in the
item 11 of the DD Form 214.
The AFPC/DPPPR evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force advisory was sent to the applicant on 7 March 2003
for review and comment. As of this date, this office has not received a
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 error or injustice. Applicant’s contentions are duly noted;
however, we do not find these uncorroborated assertions, in and by
themselves, sufficiently persuasive to override the rationale provided by
the Air Force. While documents reflect changes in on-the-job training,
there is no documentation showing the award of the 5-skill level for either
Air Force Specialty Code. In view of the above and in the absence of
evidence by the applicant substantiating his claim, we agree with the
recommendation of the Air Force and adopt the rationale expressed as the
basis for our decision that the applicant has failed to sustain his burden
that he has suffered either an error or an injustice. Therefore, we find
no basis to recommend granting the relief sought.
_________________________________________________________________
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.
