RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2005-02100
INDEX CODE: 135.02
XXXXXXX COUNSEL: NONE
XXXXXXX HEARING DESIRED: NO
MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE: 4 JAN 2007
___________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
It appears the applicant is requesting that the inactive duty
service recorded on his Air Force Reserve Point Credit Summary for
the period 9 Nov 88 through 7 Dec 90, be changed to active duty.
___________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
His records should reflect that he completed two years of active
duty service as well as two years of inactive duty service in the
Air Force Reserve.
He has tried to contact his old units but the units have all been
deactivated. He was referred to the National Personnel Records
Center (NPRC) and HQ Air Reserve Personnel Center (HQ ARPC) for
point credit data and has submitted all the records that are
available.
Applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.
___________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant’s AF Form 526, ANG/USAFR Point Credit Summary, reflects
that for Retirement Years Ending (RYE) 20 Jun 89, 90, and 91, a
total of 88 paid inactive duty points and 350 active duty points
were credited.
All of the active duty tours documented on the applicant’s AF Forms
938, Request and Authorization for Active Duty Training/Active Duty
Tour, are recorded on the point credit summaries.
___________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
HQ ARPC/DPP reviewed this application and recommended denial.
Based on their analysis of the circumstances of the case, the
AF Form 526 for RYE 20 Jun 89, 90, and 91 shows inactive duty drill
dates totaling 88 paid inactive duty points. These paid inactive
duty points, coded type duty 7, automatically posted to the Point
Credit Accounting and Reporting System (PCARS) from the Reserve Pay
Office and indicate that the applicant received pay for the drills
performed.
The applicant’s active duty service documented on the DD Form 214,
Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty for Operation
Desert Shield/Storm from 8 Dec 90 through 5 Jul 91, shows 194
active duty points on his AF Form 526 for RYE 20 Jun 91, but a
discrepancy was found on his AF Form 526 for RYE 20 Jun 92.
Fourteen (14) active duty points from 22 Jun - 5 Jul 91 were
missing along with eight (8) inactive duty points for 13 and
14 Jul 91, and 10 and 11 Aug 91. A corrected copy of the AF Form
526 for RYE 20 Jun 92 was processed to reflect the additional
14 active duty points and 8 inactive duty points credited.
The applicant was credited with the proper active and inactive duty
points. All the points and type duty codes were correctly recorded
on the point credit summaries. In most instances, the applicant
earned two inactive duty points per drill day. During active duty,
only one point can be earned per day. Moreover, the source
documents provided by the applicant, verify active duty points were
correctly recorded on the point credit summaries and did not refute
the existing inactive duty points.
A complete copy of the 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 29 Jul 05 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 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. Applicant
contends that his records should reflect that he completed two
years of active duty service as well as two years of inactive duty
service in the Air Force Reserve. However, after careful
consideration of the documents submitted in support of his appeal
and the evidence of record, it appears he has been properly
credited with all of the participation performed during the
Retirement Years Ending 20 Jun 89, 90, and 91, both active and
inactive service. IAW AFM 36-8001, Reserve Participation and
Training, one point should be awarded for a day of active duty and
one point should be awarded for four hours of inactive duty
training, not to exceed two points per day. Active duty points
cannot be credited as inactive duty training. Therefore, we agree
with the opinion and recommendation of the Air Reserve Personnel
Center and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion that
the applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice.
Based on the foregoing, and 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.
