                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2005-01562
            INDEX CODE:  135.02

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED: NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her record be  changed  to  show  she  earned  24  points  during  her
Retention/Retirement (R/R) year of 26 July 1988 to 25 July 1989.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

She transferred from the Florida Army National Guard (FLARNG)  to  the
California Air National Guard (CAANG) in  early  1989.   She  was  not
awarded participation points  for  the  time  she  served  during  her
transfer to include time served for  equipment  draw,  uniform  issue,
additional attendance and training in preparation  for  transition  to
her new Air Force Specialty and being part of the  planning  committee
for her new organization’s picnic.  She was assigned but not aware  of
the point’s only system for performing duty.

She separated from the FLARNG effective 19 July 1988; however it  took
the FLARNG a full year to produce a discharge order.  Though  she  was
processed into the CAANG effective 1 September 1988, it wasn’t until 3
June 1989 that she was officially assigned to the CAANG and allowed to
participate.

In support of her appeal, the applicant has  provided  copies  of  her
FLARNG transfer order and portions of her CAANG appointment package.

Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

She began military service on 7 August 1984.  She was commissioned  on
26 July 1985 and was progressively promoted to the grade of major with
a date of rank (DOR) of 1 October 1999.  In her 19  years,  5  months,
and 11 days of satisfactory service, she has only  one  unsatisfactory
year of service which was her R/R year of 26  July  1998  to  25  July
1989.  She is currently serving in the CAANG.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

ANG/A1POF recommends  denial.  A1POF  contends  she  has  provided  no
documentation to show she performed duty during the  specified  period
of time in either a paid or non-paid status.  A1POF states they  would
reconsider her request should she provide pertinent documentation that
would support her request.

A1POF’s complete evaluation is at Exhibit B.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the  applicant  on
19 May 2006 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 timely filed.

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.
