                                   HEARING DESIRED:  NO

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

1.  His Date of Separation (DOS) be changed to reflect the correct DOS.

2.  His records be corrected to reflect  he  is  entitled  to  a  Selective
Reenlistment Bonus (SRB).

________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 6 April 2005, the  applicant  submitted  an  application  to  the  Board
requesting he be given a  SRB  in  conjunction  with  his  13 October  2004
reenlistment.

On 14 July 2005, the Board considered  and  denied  his  request.   For  an
accounting of the facts surrounding his previous request and the  rationale
of the Board's earlier decision, see the Record of Proceedings  at  Exhibit
F.

On 10 May 2007, the applicant requested the Board change his DOS to reflect
12 October 2008 and to reconsider his request that he receive an  SRB.   He
provided excerpts from AFI 36-2101, Classifying Military Personnel (Officer
and Enlisted), copies of his  enlistment/reenlistment  documents  and  data
extracted from AFPC’s website.  His complete submission, with  attachments,
is at Exhibit G.

________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

HQ AFPC/DPPAE recommends denial.  DPPAE states  the  applicant  entered  the
Air Force on 16 January 2001 for a period of four years.   This  established
his DOS as 15 January 2005.  On 13 October 2004, he reenlisted for a  period
of five years and six months.  This reenlistment established a  new  DOS  of
12 April 2010.  However, the correct obligated  service  was  three  months;
therefore, his actual reenlistment should  have  been  for  five  years  and
three months.  Based on the actual reenlistment  and  obligated  service  he
has a correct DOS of 12 January 2010.  This DOS is  currently  reflected  in
the  Military  Personal  Data  Systems  (MILPDS)  and  on  Defense   Finance
Accounting Service  files.   The  Board  should  direct  his  DD  Form  4/1,
Enlistment/Reenlistment Document, Armed  Forces  of  the  United  States  be
corrected to reflect the reenlistment of five years and  three  months  vice
the current contract of five years and six months.  MILPDS  and  DFAS  files
reflect the reenlistment of five years and three months  for  a  DOS  of  12
January 2010.  There is no evidence to  support  the  requested  DOS  of  12
October 2008.

The complete DPPAE evaluation is at Exhibit H.

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

The applicant responded stating he does not wish to change  his  DOS  to  12
October 2008 as stated in the advisory.  He sent paperwork  stating  he  had
the wrong DOS on record.  He states the Board agreed and changed his DOS  to
12 October 2008 when it should have been 16 January 2009.

His complete response, with attachments, is attached at Exhibit I.

________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

After reviewing this application and the evidence provided  in  support  of
his appeal, we are not persuaded that the applicant’s DOS should be changed
nor are we persuaded that he  should  have  been  authorized  an  SRB.   We
carefully considered the information provided by the  applicant.   However,
while  the  information  he  obtained  from  the  VMPF   listed   incorrect
information, his enlistment contract contains the correct  information  and
is consistent with the data in the  military  personnel  data  system.   In
regards to his request for an SRB, the applicant accepted  retraining  into
the Communications Career Field and as a result, he waived  all  rights  to
the SRB in his previous career field.  Absent persuasive  evidence  to  the
contrary we find no compelling basis to recommend  favorable  consideration
of his application.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified that the evidence  presented  did not demonstrate
the existence of        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.
