INDEX NUMBER: 131.00
XXXXXXX COUNSEL: None
XXXXXXX HEARING DESIRED: No
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
She be awarded the grade of first lieutenant vice second lieutenant
based on her experience and education.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Applicant provides a resume of her education and experience and a
copy of her transcript where she was awarded her Bachelor of Science
in Nursing and Master of Science in Nursing.
The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit
A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is serving on active duty as a clinical nurse. She was
directly appointed a second lieutenant in the Air Force Reserve on 16
Mar 04.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
ARPC/DPR recommends denial of the applicant’s request. In accordance
with AFI 36-2005, paragraph 2.18.3 and Table 2.4, the applicant
cannot be given credit for completion of her Master of Science degree
due to it being after her commissioning date. The applicant was
appointed appropriately and service date computation was completed
correctly.
The 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
6 Aug 04 for review and comment within 30 days. To date, a response
has not been received.
_________________________________________________________________
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.

The applicant being an enlisted member at the time of his retirement was retired under the law that applies to Air Force enlisted members. While he did serve on active duty as a commissioned officer from 3 May 79 to 15 Aug 85, he was not entitled to retire as an officer because he had less than 10 years of active commissioned service as required by the applicable law. Applicant wants to know how someone can be retired as an officer and serve on active duty as an enlisted member.

At that time, no credit was awarded for work experience unless the applicant had completed a post graduate degree (Masters or PhD). As of this date, no response has been received by this office (Exhibit C). After a thorough review of the available evidence and the applicant’s complete submission, we find no evidence which would persuade us that the applicant’s service records should be corrected to show she was appointed to a higher grade at the time of her appointment.
