RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2009-00907
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
1. Her active duty for training days reflect 181 days.
2. Her name be changed from Gloria Jean Jones to Gloria Jean
Thomas Jones.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She served 181 days on active duty for training. In regard to
her name change - Gloria Jean Jones is not her original name.
This error affects her medical records.
In support of her request, the applicant provided a certificate
of birth, documents extracted from her military personnel records
and service medical records.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force on 6 October
1981.
On 2 February 1982, the applicant was honorably released from
active duty, under the provisions of AFR 35-6, Completion of
Initial Active Duty Training. She served 3 months and 27 days on
active duty.
On 13 August 2009, HQ AFPC/DPSSR advised the applicant that her
request to change her name is not warranted. AFI 36-2608, Military Personnel Records System, permits changes for former
members if it is shown that the Air Force erroneously recorded
data in question when a member enlisted. A review of the
applicant's records show she enlisted, served and was discharged
under the name "Gloria Jean Jones."
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOS recommends denial. DPSOS states the applicant
submitted fragments of documentation which reflect dates for
appointments beyond 2 February 1982. However, it appears the
applicant performed duty as a Reservist and the evidence
submitted is not sufficient to determine what status, active or
reserve, she was serving in during the time periods indicated.
The Air Force does not issue a DD Form 214, Certificate of
Release or Discharge from Active Duty, to Reservists for periods
of active duty less than 90 days, i.e., reservist on weekend duty
or two-week annual training. There is no evidence in the
applicant's record which would support or authorize a change to
her DD Form 214. Additionally, the applicant did not provide any
evidence that an error or injustice occurred in the preparation
or processing of her DD Form 214.
The DPSOS complete evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 18 September 2009, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was
forwarded to the applicant for review and comment within 30 days
(Exhibit D). As of this date, this office has received no
response.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing
law or regulations.
2. The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice. After a
thorough review of the evidence of record and the applicants
submission, it is our opinion that relief is not warranted in
this case. The applicant's contentions regarding her request to
have her active duty for training days reflect 181 days are duly
noted; however, other than her own assertions she has provided no
evidence which sustains her burden of proof of either an error or
injustice. In regard to the applicants name change, AFPC/DPSSR
properly advised the applicant that no evidence was found to show
the applicants name recorded for enlistment, time served and
discharge was erroneous. In view of the above and in the absence
of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend
granting the relief sought.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice; the
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this
application.
