RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2003-03371
INDEX CODE: 113.01
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His records be corrected to show that his active duty service be applied
towards his creditable service for a Reserve retirement.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
His active duty service was not applied towards his Reserve retirement.
In support of his request, applicant provided a copy of his Military Record
and Report of Separation, Certificate of Service; his Air Reserve Forces
Retirement Credit Summary; his DD Form 214, Report of Separation from the
Armed Forces of the United States; and a Reserve order. His complete
submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant served in an enlisted status in the Army Air Corps from 27 Sep 40
through 14 Apr 45. On 15 Apr 45, he was appointed a second lieutenant,
Army of the United States. He served various Reserve and active duty
assignments as an enlisted member and as an officer. He served on active
duty from 27 Sep 40 to 9 Dec 46 and from 29 Mar 48 to 16 Jun 52. He was
placed on the Inactive Status List Reserve Section (ISLRS) on 1 Nov 65. On
31 May 67, he was removed from ISLRS and was assigned to the Retired
Reserve Section and his name was placed on the Honorary Reserve Retired
List. He completed 26 years, 8 months, and 4 days of honorable Federal
service; however, he completed only 12 years, 8 months, and 5 days of
satisfactory Federal service creditable toward retired pay eligibility.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
ARPC/DPP recommends denial. DPP states that all of his active Federal
service was correctly credited towards a Reserve retirement. Since he did
not complete 20 years of satisfactory service he is not eligible for
Reserve retired pay, or any benefits associated with retired pay. The DPP
evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Applicant responded and provided a synopsis of his career. Applicant
states that points accrual for over 41 years should be recognized for
retirement compensation. The provisions of (U.S.C.) Section 12731 projects
an ontological attitude which he finds totally unacceptable. He has been
associated with the military for a total of 67 years, which regardless of
the provisions of (U.S.C.) Section 12731, should tell where his true
sympathies are. His complete submission is at Exhibit E.
_________________________________________________________________
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 that would warrant corrective action.
After a thorough review of the evidence of record, it appears that the
applicant's creditable service was computed correctly and has been properly
applied to his service record. Evidence has not been presented which would
lead us to believe that the award of any additional service credit is
warranted. Therefore, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the
Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt its rationale as the
basis for our conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an
error or injustice. 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.

As he had reached his maximum age of service, he applied for retirement as a Reserve of the Air Force and he was retired in his federally recognized grade of MG.
