RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2003-02459
INDEX NUMBER: 108.07
XXXXXXX COUNSEL: NONE
XXXXXXX HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His records be corrected to show that he completed 21 years, 9 months, and
7 days of active service for retirement, so that he can qualify for Combat-
Related Special Compensation (CRSC) benefits.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
In essence, that his time spent on the Temporary Disability Retired List
(TDRL) should be counted in computing his total active service for
retirement.
Applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant was placed on the TDRL on 28 April 1980 and permanently retired
for disability effective 5 August 1984, with a disability rating of 70%.
He completed 17 years, 5 months, and 15 days of active Federal military
service.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPD recommends denial of applicant’s request, stating, in part, there
were no discrepancies during his processing through the Disability
Evaluation System (DES) to warrant amending his permanent disability
retirement order crediting his period on the TDRL as active duty military
service.
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 3
October 2003 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 timely filed.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the
existence of error or injustice. After a thorough review of the evidence
of record and applicant’s submission, we are not persuaded that relief
should be granted. Applicant’s contentions are duly noted; however, we do
not find these assertions, in and by themselves, sufficiently persuasive to
override the rationale provided by the Air Force. The office of primary
responsibility has adequately addressed applicant’s contentions and we
agree with its opinion and adopt the rationale expressed as the basis for
our decision that the applicant has failed to sustain his burden that he
has suffered either an error or an injustice. Hence, we find no compelling
basis to recommend granting the relief sought.
_________________________________________________________________
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.
