RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2006-02019
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE: 17 JAN 2008
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her DD Form 4, Enlistment/Reenlistment Document Armed Forces of the United
States, be corrected to reflect Senior Airman (SrA).
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She held the rank of Airman First Class (A1C) on active duty for two years
and two months. She was brought onto active duty as an A1C with a date of
rank (DOR) of 28 December 2005, the date she entered active duty. She
received no adjustment for her active duty time which would have made her
DOR 27 February 2004. She was Palace Chase so she had no break in service
when she came back to active duty.
In support of her application, applicant submits a memorandum from 4
MSS/DPMP dated 28 June 2006, DD form 214 and e-mail traffic relative to the
issue.
Applicant's complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant served on active duty from 7 May 2002 to 15 September 2004
with the highest held grade of A1C. On 28 December 2005 she returned to
active duty as an A1C with a DOR of 28 December 2005. She is currently
serving on active duty in the grade of A1C.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPAES recommends denial. A review of the applicant’s records reveals
she did not receive credit for her previous
active duty time. She is entitled to a DOR adjustment but not to the
advanced rank of SrA. AFI 36-2604 states credit should be made to anyone
who was on active duty for more than two years and out less than 6 years.
Upon computing the member’s dates, she is entitled to a DOR correction to
A1C with a DOR of 27 February 2004 and AFPC/DPPPWM has been advised and
will update the DOR accordingly.
AFPC/DPPAES complete evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 4
August 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. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the
existence of an error or an injustice. The applicant contends that her
rank should be SrA because she served on active duty as an A1C for two
years and two months and did not receive any adjusted credit for her active
duty time. A review of the applicant’s records reflect she was brought
back on active duty on 28 December 2005, a order was cut promoting her to
SrA effective 28 December 2005, and she tested for SSgt based on the
promotion to SrA. However, the system flipped her back to Amn. In
reviewing the Air Force Instruction the applicant should have received
adjusted credit for her active duty time as a A1C. Therefore, in view of
the foregoing, we believe that any doubt should be resolved in favor of the
applicant and recommend the applicant’s record be correct as indicated
below.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:
The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force relating
to APPLICANT be corrected to show that:
a. Her effective date of rank as an airman first class (E-3) is 27
February 2004.
b. She was promoted to the grade of senior airman (E-4) effective
and with a date of rank of 28 December 2005.
