participation for pay and points due to an administrative 
discharge action for testing positive pursuant to a random 
urinalysis for the period 3 February 2008 through 
11 February 2009. The applicant requested a hearing before the 
discharge board which subsequently found he had not wrongfully 
used marijuana. The ADB determined the applicant should be 
retained in the Air Force Reserve and he was able to resume 
participation. 

 

The applicant’s participation records reflect during 
Retention/Retirement (R/R) Year 8 October 2007 through 
7 October 2008, he was credited with 35 active duty (AD) points, 
16 paid inactive duty training (IDT) points, and 15 membership 
points and a total of 66 points towards retirement. During his 
R/R year 8 October 2008 through 7 October 2009, he was credited 
with 66 AD points, 66 IDT points, and 15 membership points, a 
total of 147 points towards retirement.

    It is unclear why no medical documentation was provided or why the case was not completed. In this case, he is not eligible for active duty orders. We note that the Air Force offices of primary responsibility state the applicant’s medical condition was not found to be in the line of duty; therefore no eligibility for active duty orders or pay exists.

    In view of the ADB’s finding that he did not communicate a threat to a coworker and should be returned to a participating status, we believe corrective action in regard to his request for point credit from 1997 to 2002 is appropriate. Until such time as the ADB determined that he had not communicated a threat to a coworker, there existed no basis for the commander to determine that he should be returned to a participating status, especially considering the racial incident one year earlier...
