RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2005-01200
INDEX CODE:
COUNSEL: American Legion
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Block 12g of his DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from
Active Duty, be changed from 0 years, 0 months, and 0 days of Sea
Service to 4 years, 0 months, and 29 days.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
When the DD Form 214 was accomplished a typographical error was
committed leaving Block 12g blank by mistake.
In support of his appeal, the applicant has provided several copies of
DD Form 214’s and two National Guard Bureau (NGB) Form 22’s, Report of
Separation and Record of Service.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant, a retired member of the Idaho Air National Guard
(IDANG), began his military career on 29 October 1961. He eventually
attained the grade of senior master sergeant (SMSgt), effective and
with a date or rank (DOR) of 18 May 1991. He served over 10 years
with the IDANG and was honorably discharged on 31 December 1999.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
ANG/DPFOC recommends denial. DPFOC contends in accordance with Air
National Guard Instruction (ANGI) 36-3202, the DD Form 214 should
“…[reflect] only those actions accomplished during the period covered
by the form.” The period of Sea Service occurred while serving with
the US Marine Corps (USMC) and is documented on his DD Form 214’s
issued by the USMC. Further, Sea Service is not an authorized area
for time to be totaled from previous DD Form 214’s.
DPFOC’s complete evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit B.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on
18 November 2005 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 opinion and recommendation of the Air
National Guard office of primary responsibility and adopt its
rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has not
been the victim of an error or injustice. Therefore, 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.
