RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2007-03272
INDEX CODE: 128.05
XXXXXXX COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His reenlistment contract be honored as written or his enlistment be
reconstructed to qualify him for the selective reenlistment bonus
(SRB) given to his AFSC. If this request is approved, he wants to
change from a four-year enlistment to a six-year enlistment.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
In February 2006, he inquired about reenlistment. He was told his
career field qualified for an SRB. He reenlisted with the
understanding he was receiving an SRB. Six months later he inquired
on the status and was informed he did not qualify for a SRB. In
September 2007, AFPC stated he reenlisted too early and the SRB did
not take effect until June or July of 2006.
In support of his request, the applicant submits copies of his DD Form
4-1. Enlistment/Reenlistment Document, Armed Forces of the United
States and AF IMT 901, Reenlistment Eligibility Annex to DD Form 4.
His complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 21 April 1999, the applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force for
a period of four years.
On 6 February 2006, he reenlisted in the Air Force for a period of
four years and 14 months. An AF IMT 901 was initiated that provided
for a Zone A, Multiple 2, SRB for four years.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial. DPSOA states the applicant was assigned
to an overseas location. On 6 February 2006, he initiated a
reenlistment for a period of 4 years and 14 months. At the time of his
reenlistment, there was no SRB authorized in his AFSC. On 26 May
2006, the Air Force announced program changes for the SRB program. As
stated in the announcement message, the effective date of all
additions and increases were effective 1 June 2006. He executed his
reenlistment 6 February 2006, almost 120 days before the announced
effective date of the SRB. There was no SRB authorized at the time of
his enlistment. As such the contract as written should be declared
contractually in error and corrected in accordance with the AFI; with
no SRB authorized. Additionally, he is not eligible to execute a six-
year reenlistment as it exceeds the authorized term of enlistment
authorized by the Air Force.
The complete DPSOA evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit B.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 1
February 2008, for review and comment within 30 days. As of this
date, no response has been received by this office. (Exhibit C).
_________________________________________________________________
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. Evidence has not been presented
which would lead us to believe that the rules of the applicable
regulations, which implement Air Force policy, were inappropriately
applied or that he was denied rights to which he was entitled. In
this regard, the applicant is requesting that he be authorized a Zone
A, Multiple 2, SRB as reflected on his 6 February 2006 reenlistment
contract. However, at the time of his reenlistment, he had completed
over 6 years and 10 months of service and was not in Zone A, which
ends at 6 years of service, but was actually in Zone B.
Unfortunately, members in Zone B, having between 6 and 10 years of
service, were not authorized an SRB at the time. Therefore, it
appears that he was not authorized an SRB and we are not persuaded by
his assertions that his records should be corrected to reflect
otherwise. In view of the above and absent persuasive evidence to the
contrary, we find no compelling basis to recommend granting the relief
sought.
_________________________________________________________________
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.
