INDEX CODE: 112.07
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
The one (1) month extension to his enlistment be cancelled.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He felt rushed and did not receive ample advice to make a sound
decision during his permanent change of station (PCS) briefing.
In support of his request, applicant provided a copy of AF Form 1411,
Extension or Cancellation of Extensions of Enlistment in the Regular
Air Force/Air Force Reserve.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Member currently serves in the Regular Air Force as a technical
sergeant. He reenlisted on 2 August 1999 for 6 years giving him a
date of separation (DOS) of 1 August 2005. On 7 May 2003, he extended
this enlistment for 1 month to qualify for a CONUS assignment. His
new DOS is 1 September 2005.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPAE recommends denial. Member initialed that he understood
that he could reenlist rather than extend and that he chose to extend
at that time. Under current rules of operation, member will be
eligible to reenlist in September of 2004 or if he requires
retainability for another service directed requirement.
The DPPAE evaluation is at Exhibit B.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on
12 Sep 03, for review and comment within 30 days. 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 timely filed.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate
the existence of an 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 that the applicant has not been the victim of
an error or injustice. 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 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.

Failure to cancel the extension within the 30-calendar day limit will be considered a willingness on my part to serve out the extension.” The applicant’s 30 days to cancel the extension began the day his assignment to Kadena AB was canceled; therefore, he should have had enough time to cancel the extension within the time limit.
