AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2008-01821
INDEX CODE: 100.00
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His date of birth (DOB) on his DD Form 214, Report of Separation from
Active Duty, be changed from March 3, 1959, to April 3, 1959.
________________________________________________________________
RESUME OF CASE:
The applicant submitted a similar request dated 3 Jul 08. On 22 Oct 08,
the Board considered and denied the applicant's request (Exhibit G) based
on the Air Force OPR’s recommendation.
The facts pertaining to the case are as follows:
The applicant was honorably discharged from service on 14 Sep 79. He
served 2 years, 8 months and 14 days on active duty. Documentation
contained in the applicant’s military service record, to include his
discharge package, lists his DOB as Mar 3, 1959.
As the applicant’s case was being prepared for litigation in federal court,
additional facts were brought out not put before the Board during their
consideration of the case. Key among the facts was the reason the
applicant is requesting the correction of his birth date, that it was
adversely impacting his ability to receive Department of Veterans Affairs
benefits to which he is entitled. Additionally, the Air Force office of
primary responsibility (OPR) was contacted and asked to provide additional
support of their position to not correct the applicant’s record. The Air
Force OPR upon further review of the applicant’s case did not provide a
compelling reason for the Board to deny the requested relief. After
discussion with the Air Force litigators, it was determined they would
request a stay to give the Board an additional opportunity to consider the
case.
________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
After a thorough consideration of the latest information put forth before
the Board in this case, we are persuaded that a change in the applicant’s
record is warranted. Therefore, we recommend that his records be corrected
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 his date of birth on his DD Form 214
be changed from March 3, 1959 to read April 3, 1959.

MRBP states Air Force Instruction (AFI) 36- 3203 states deeds of "extraordinary heroism" may entitle an enlisted member to received 10 percent additional retired pay. Noting that the Air Force offices of primary responsibility are unable to make a determination based on the limited evidence provided and considering the fact that "extraordinary" determinations are somewhat subjective, we believe reasonable doubt exists in this case as to whether his actions were extraordinary.
