AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2005-00032
INDEX CODE: 128.14
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
Mandatory Case Completion Date: 7 Jul 06
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
He be paid for accrued leave.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Because of an incorrect zip code, he never received his leave to be paid at
his discharge.
In support of his request, applicant provided a copy of his reporting
orders and a copy of his DD Form 214, Report of Separation from active
duty. His complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant contracted his initial enlistment in the Regular Air Force on 6
Oct 72. He was progressively promoted to the grade of airman first class,
having assumed that grade effective and with a date of rank of 6 Oct 73.
On 9 Mar 75, he was honorably discharged. He served 2 years, 5 months, and
4 days on active duty. His DD Form 214, item 22, Days Accrued Leave Paid
reflects "Not Paid - Leave to be claimed."
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
DFAS-POCC/DE recommends denial. DFAS states the applicant has provided no
proof that he did not receive payment and has waited 30 years to make his
request. Pay records are not available to verify if he was entitled pay
for accrued leave at his separation. The DFAS evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluations was forwarded to the applicant on 28
Jan 05 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 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; however, we agree
with the Defense Finance and Accounting Service that in the absence of
evidence to substantiate his contentions, corrective action is not
warranted. Therefore we adopt its rationale as the basis for our
conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an error or
injustice. Accordingly, 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.

Applicant requests 60 days of leave be restored to his leave account and he be entitled to sell his leave upon his 1 May 2005 retirement. The Air Force has recommended restoring 60 days to the applicant’s leave account. In reviewing the applicant’s MMPA, DFAS determined, however, that the applicant’s account should have reflected 26.5 days of leave at the time of his retirement.
