APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her records be corrected to reflect her entitlement to  incapacitation
pay for the period from 1 Nov 98 to 30 Sep 03.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 6 Jun 02, the Board considered an  application  pertaining  to  the
applicant, in which she requested that her records be  reevaluated  to
determine whether she was  wrongfully  discharged  and  denied  future
employment in the military.  The  offices  of  primary  responsibility
(OPRs) recommended that the applicant receive a medical examination to
determine her medical status at the time of her discharge.  The  Board
agreed with the OPRs' recommendation and directed that  the  applicant
undergo a physical examination and review by  the  Medical  Evaluation
Board (MEB), the  Physical  Evaluation  Board  (PEB)  and  the  Formal
Physical Evaluation Board  (FPEB),  if  necessary,  to  determine  her
medical condition as of the date of her discharge.  A complete copy of
the Memorandum for the Chief of Staff, with attachments, is at Exhibit
H.

On 17 Sep 02, an MEB convened and established a diagnosis of a History
of Myofascial Pain Syndrome in  1998,  presently  normal  examination.
The MEB recommended that  the  applicant’s  case  be  referred  to  an
Informal Physical Evaluation Board (IPEB).

On 1 Oct 02, an IPEB convened and established a diagnosis of a History
of Myofascial Lumbar Pain.  The IPEB  found  that  the  applicant  was
unfit because of physical disability,  and  that  the  disability  was
ratable under VA Diagnostic Code 5290  at  10 percent,  and  that  the
disability may be permanent.  The IPEB recommended that the  applicant
be discharged with severance pay.

On  30  Oct  02,  the  applicant  disagreed  with  the  findings   and
recommended disposition of the IPEB and demanded a formal  hearing  of
the case.

On 14 Nov 02, an FPEB  convened  and  established  a  diagnosis  of  a
History of Myofascial Lumbar Pain.  The FPEB found that the  condition
was unfitting but was not compensable or ratable.  The FPEB found that
the applicant was fit for return to duty.  The applicant  agreed  with
the findings and recommended disposition of the FPEB.

On 26 Aug 03, the Board considered an application  pertaining  to  the
applicant, in which she requested that her  records  be  corrected  to
allow her the option of returning  to  military  service.   The  Board
indicated that since she had been found fit  for  military  duty,  she
should be afforded the opportunity  to  return  to  military  service.
Accordingly, the Board recommended that her  reenlistment  eligibility
(RE) code be changed, which was accepted by the  Director,  Air  Force
Review Boards Agency on 30 Sep 03.  A complete copy of the  Memorandum
for the Chief of Staff, with attachments, is at Exhibit I.

By application, dated 20 Nov  04,  the  applicant  requests  that  her
records be corrected to reflect her entitlement to incapacitation  pay
for the period from 1 Nov 98 to 30 Sep 03.  Because she was denied the
option to reenlist as a result of her improper discharge, she believes
she is entitled to incapacitation pay from the time of  her  discharge
in Nov 98 to the correction of her records by the Board in Sep 03.

Applicant’s complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit J.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFRC/DPMB recommended denial indicating that since  the  applicant  is
entitled to be returned to the Air Force Reserve without any  physical
limitations and was considered qualified to perform  her  duty  during
the period in question, she would not be  entitled  to  incapacitation
pay.

A complete copy of the AFRC/DPMB evaluation is at Exhibit K.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to applicant on 4 Apr
05 for review and response.  As of this date,  no  response  has  been
received by this office (Exhibit L).

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  After a thorough review of  this  case,  we  find  that  there  is
insufficient evidence to warrant any corrective action  regarding  the
applicant’s request for incapacitation pay for the period 1 Nov 98  to
30 Sep 03.  We note that based on the recommendations of the Air Force
offices of primary responsibility (OPRs),  the  Board  had  previously
determined the applicant should be evaluated to ascertain her  medical
condition at the time of her involuntary discharge on 1 Nov  98.   She
was ultimately found to have been fit for return to duty, as of 1  Nov
98, by the FPEB after  she  successfully  appealed  the  IPEB  initial
finding  of  unfitness.   As  a  result,  and  based  on  the  Medical
Consultant’s recommendation, the Board  determined  that  her  records
should be corrected to allow her the opportunity to return to military
service.  In view of the foregoing, we find the applicant’s  assertion
she is entitled to incapacitation pay for the period in question to be
inconsistent with the finding she was fit for return to military duty.
 Accordingly, we find no basis to act  favorably  on  the  applicant’s
request.

2.  The applicant's case is adequately documented and it has not  been
shown  that  a  personal  appearance  with  or  without  counsel  will
materially  add  to  our  understanding  of   the   issues   involved.
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably considered.

_________________________________________________________________

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.
