_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
She be given a constructive reenlistment effective 30 April 2004, for
six years and be awarded a Zone A, Multiple 4.0 Selective Reenlistment
Bonus (SRB).
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She did not receive proper notification of her eligibility to reenlist
and subsequently lost eligibility to receive an SRB.
In support of her appeal, the applicant provided a personal statement,
five emails relating to SRB Terminations/Reductions, a copy of AFPC
message, Career Job Reservation (CJR) Program Update, CJR/SRB Worksheet,
CJR Computer Printout, excerpts from AFI 36-2606, Personal Data Sheet
and a list of Chronology of Events.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force as an airman basic on
14 April 1999, for a term of 6 years. Upon graduation from basic
training she attended technical school and was trained in AFSC 2E831,
Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems.
On 10 July 2003, she extended her enlistment from 13 April 2005 to
13 April 2006. On 26 January 2004, applicant requested her extension be
cancelled and on 4 March 2004, the 12 month extension was cancelled.
On 7 April 2004 applicant applied for a CJR and was approved on 14 April
2004. Her ETS was established as 13 April 2005.
She currently serves in the grade of Staff Sergeant (SSgt/E-5).
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPAE recommends denial. DPPAE states effective 29 April 2004, the
applicant’s SRB was deleted and she was not eligible to reenlist at that
time to receive the SRB due to her not being within 3 months prior to
her expiration term of service (ETS).
According to DPPAE, effective 1 May 2004, there was a policy change,
which now states “Upon approval of a CJR, first term airmen (to include
CAREERS retrainees) can now request immediate reenlistment instead of
waiting 3 months prior to ETS”. The applicant is now eligible to
reenlist effective 1 May 2004; however, the SRB is no longer available.
DPPAE’s 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
22 July 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 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
the applicant should be given the relief requested. Applicant’s
contentions are duly noted; however, we found no evidence that the
applicant was miscounseled or that she has been treated any differently
than others who were similarly situated. Therefore, we agree with the
opinions and recommendations of the Air Force offices 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. In
the absence of evidence to the contrary, 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.

DPPAE states that when the Air Staff reduced the reenlistment window from 12 to 3 months and deleted the SRB in his career field, the applicant was not eligible to reenlist. Evidence indicates that the applicant was not eligible to reenlist on or before the date the Air Force reduced the reenlistment window from 12 months to 3 months on 5 March 2004 because his 12-month prior-to-ETS date was 13 March 2004. _________________________________________________________________ The following...
