AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2005-02545
INDEX CODE: 128.11
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE: 19 FEBRUARY 2007
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her records be corrected to show she enrolled in the Enlisted College
Loan Repayment Program (ECLRP).
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
The Military Entrance Processing Station in New Orleans, LA either
lost or failed to send her enlistment documents to the Automated
Records Management System (ARMS).
In support of her request, applicant provides a copy of her enlistment
contract and other associated enlistment documents and copies of her
Enlisted Performance Reports for the periods ending 30 November 2001,
5 September 2002, 5 September 2003 and 6 December 2004. Applicant's
submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant reenlisted in the Regular Air Force on 27 April 2005 for
a period of 4 years. She is currently serving in the grade of staff
sergeant and is stationed at Keesler AFB, MS.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPAE recommends the application be denied. DPPAE states the
applicant was enrolled in the ECLRP program and elected to withdraw
from the program to receive the more favorable MGIB benefits if she
elected to do one term of service. The applicant has now reenlisted
and is requesting a first term incentive that she declined be paid by
the Air Force. The AFPC/DPPAE evaluation, with attachment, is at
Exhibit B.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 20 January 2006, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded
to the applicant for review and comment. 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. Her contentions are duly noted;
however, we do not find these uncorroborated assertions, in and by
themselves sufficiently persuasive to override the rationale provided
by the Air Force office of primary responsibility. In this respect,
we note that, on 2 July 2001, the applicant elected to withdraw from
the Enlisted College Loan Repayment Program (ECLRP) knowing that
repayment of her student loans would be her responsibility. We,
therefore, agree with the recommendation of the Air Force office of
primary responsibility and conclude that the applicant has failed to
sustain her burden that she has suffered either an error or injustice.
In view of the above and absent evidence to the contrary, we find no
basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this application.
4. The applicant's case is adequately documented and it has not been
shown that a personal appearance with or without counsel will
materially add to our understanding of the issues involved.
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably considered.
_________________________________________________________________
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.
