___________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

He be credited with an  additional  point  during  Retirement  Year
Ending (RYE) 23 July 1992.

___________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He  was  given  a  bad  year  for  missing  one  point  during  RYE
23 July 1992.  That year  he  started  a  new  civilian  job  which
required him to attend additional training.   He  states  that  his
records are correct with no errors but are unjust.

In support of his appeal, applicant submitted  a  printout  of  his
Reserve Participation Service History, dated 24 Jan 04.

Applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.

___________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

Applicant enlisted in the Air Force Reserve on 24 Jul  87.   He  is
currently assigned in the Information Management career field.   He
was promoted to the grade of technical sergeant with  an  effective
date and date of rank of 1 May 98.

Applicant’s ANG/USAFR Point Credit Summary reflects that during RYE
23 Jul 92, he was credited with 49 total and retirement points  and
an unsatisfactory year for retirement.

He has been credited with 15 years of satisfactory federal  service
towards retirement.

In accordance with AFM 36-8001, a reserve  member  is  required  to
earn a minimum of 50 points (including membership points) in  their
full Retention/Retirement  (R/R)  year  for  award  of  a  year  of
satisfactory federal service for retirement.

___________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

HQ ARPC/DPP reviewed this application and recommended denial.  They
found no injustice in this case.  Applicant has  been  awarded  all
earned points.  As of 23 Jul 03,  the  applicant  has  successfully
completed  15  years  of  satisfactory  service  and   during   RYE
23 Jul 92, he earned a total of 49 points which gave him  his  only
unsatisfactory year of service  in  his  career.   He  has  been  a
Reservist since 24  Jul  87  and  should  be  fully  aware  of  the
requirement for a satisfactory R/R year.

A complete copy of the 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 11 Jun 04 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 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.  We took notice of
the applicant's complete submission in judging the  merits  of  the
case.  Based on the evidence of record and that verified by HQ  Air
Reserve Personnel Center (HQ ARPC), the applicant was given  credit
for all of his participation performed during the  Retirement  Year
Ending (RYE) 23 Jul 92.  As a member of the Air  Force  Reserve/Air
National Guard, the applicant was responsible for ensuring that his
participation requirements were met.  He has been a member  of  the
Air Force Reserve since 24 Jul 87 and should be fully aware of  the
requirements  for   a   satisfactory   Retention/Retirement   year.
Therefore, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the  Air
Reserve Personnel Center and adopt their 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.
