                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2004-01365
            INDEX CODE:  110.00
            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO
_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His records be corrected to show that he reenlisted on  30  Mar  04,  rather
than 9 Mar 04.
_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

Two weeks after he reenlisted the Selective Reenlistment  Bonus  (SRB)  rate
for his Air Force Specialty Code (AFSC) was increased from 2.0 to  2.5.   If
he had been notified of the change, he would have waited to reenlist to  get
the additional $5,000.

In support of his request, applicant provided a  copy  of  his  reenlistment
contract  and  an  email  communiqué.    His   complete   submission,   with
attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

Applicant contracted his initial enlistment in the Regular Air Force  on  30
Nov 94.  He has been progressively promoted to the grade of staff  sergeant,
having assumed that grade effective and with a date of rank  of  1  Oct  01.
On 9 Mar 04, he reenlisted for a period of 6  years  and  was  authorized  a
multiple 2.0 SRB.
_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

APFC/DPPAE recommends denial.  DPPAE states the Air Staff announced  release
of the SRB list on 29 Mar 04, that would  go  into  effect  on  30  Mar  04.
There is no way  the  Military  Personnel  Flight  could  have  advised  the
applicant to wait until 30 Mar 04 to reenlist because no one knew  when  the
Air Staff would release the new list.  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 10  Jun
04 for review and comment within 30 days.  As of this date, this office  has
received no response.
_________________________________________________________________

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 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.

    She was briefed that she was entitled to an SRB for the 16 months of her second extension. The extension contract provided clearly shows she was counseled she was entitled to the SRB. We took notice of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of the case; however, we agree with the Air Force office of primary responsibility that the error on her one-month extension contract indicating her entitlement to an SRB, is administrative in nature and does not, in itself, authorize...

    Therefore, the first date that the applicant was eligible for reenlistment was 1 May 2004. Evidence supports that even though the applicant was eligible to reenlist upon receiving his 3-skill level in June 2003, it appears his action to delay his reenlistment until March 2004 was solely his own choice. _________________________________________________________________ The following members of the Board considered this application in Executive Session on 15 September 2004, under the...
