                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2007-02747
            INDEX CODE:  128.05
            COUNSEL:  NONE
            HEARING DESIRED: NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

He receive an Initial Enlistment Bonus (IEB) for Air  Force  Specialty
Code (AFSC) 1C431, Tactical Air Command and Control Apprentice.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His initial enlistment contract  does  not  show  the  change  to  the
Survival, Evasion, Resistance, Escape  (S.E.R.E.)  contract  that  was
changed again to the Tactical Air Control-Party (TAC-P) contract, both
of which guarantee his AFSC and IEB.

In support of his  appeal,  the  applicant  has  provided  a  copy  of
Permanent Change of Station (PCS) orders.

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

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

Applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 12 April 2005.  He  has
been progressively promoted to the grade of Airman First  Class  (A1C)
with an effective and date of rank  (DOR)  of  12 February  2006.   He
enlisted with guaranteed training into a General  Aptitude  Area  AFSC
without the promise of a specific specialty or IEB.  He  is  currently
serving in the regular Air Force and has over two years of service.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPAE recommends denial.  DPPAE states the IEB  is  an  incentive
program used to encourage individuals to  enlist  in  selected  AFSC’s
needed by the Air Force at the time of enlistment.   The  IEB-eligible
AFSC’s are determined by the Air Staff on a quarterly basis.  Based on
the members’ enlistment date of 12 April 2005, his 1C431 AFSC was  not
on the IEB quarterly listing dated April through June 2005.

DPPAE’s 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
21 September 2007 for review and comment within 30 days.  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.   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  Force  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.
