RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2003-02503
INDEX CODE: 135.02
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
He be awarded an additional 20 non-paid inactive duty training (IDT)
points and a year of satisfactory federal service for retirement year
ending 13 May 2003.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Due to the extended period of time it took to process his orders to
reflect his change in Category from "A" to "E", 20 non-paid points
should be added to his record to ensure a good year. Due to this
delay he was unable to accrue points from 12 December 2002 through 25
April 2003.
In support of his application, the applicant submits copies of AF Form
1288, Application for Ready Reserve Assignment, and Reserve Order ----
dated 3 April 2002.
The applicant’s submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant applied for an assignment to the ----th Air Reserve
Personnel Center (ARPC) on 5 December 2002. He was relieved from the
--th Air Refueling Squadron, (ARS) McGuire AFB, NJ and assigned to the
----th ARPC Squadron on 25 April 2003. He participated with his
previous unit in May and July 2002 for a total of 12 IDT points. His
last day of participation was 29 July 2002. He was assigned to the --
th ARS for the next 8 1/2 months, but did not participate. Once
assigned to the ---th ARPC Squadron as an Individual Mobilization
Augmentee, he resumed participation on 25 April 2003 and accumulated a
total of 20 IDT points for the retention/retirement (R/R) year.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
ARPC/DPP recommends the request be denied. DPP indicated the
applicant had sufficient opportunity during the four months after he
applied for the assignment, and for the four months prior to his
application for Ready Reserve assignment. He was not prohibited from
participating from August 2002 to mid April 2003, with the --th Air
Refueling Squadron.
ARPC/DPP's complete evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force Evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on
22 August 2003 for review and comment within 30 days. As of this
date, this office has received no response (Exhibit D).
_________________________________________________________________
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. 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 in that the applicant had more than
eight and one half months to earn the points necessary to make a good
year towards a satisfactory retirement. Therefore, we adopt the Air
Force’s rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant
has not been the victim of an error or injustice; and, 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.
