RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBERS: BC-2009-00998 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His DD Form 214, Armed Forces of the United States Report of 
Transfer or Discharge, be corrected to reflect an Air Force 
Specialty Code (AFSC) of 55590, Programs and Work Control 
Superintendent. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He passed his 55590 AFSC test; however, it was never recorded in 
his record. His notice of his passing test results was lost in a 
1981 house fire. 

 

The applicant does not provide any evidence in support of his 
appeal. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

On 22 July 1953, the applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force 
at the age of 19. He was progressively promoted to the rank of 
master sergeant (E-7) with a date of rank of 1 August 1971. 

 

According to the applicant’s Air Force Form 7, Airman Military 
Record, he held a Duty AFSC of 55590 for the period 29 July 1968 
through 14 December 1968. 

 

On 31 October 1973, the applicant was honorably discharged from 
active duty and retired effective 1 November 1973. He served 
20 years, 3 months, and 9 days on active duty. His DD Form 214 
reflects his AFSC as 55570, Programs and Work Control Technician. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIDC recommends denying the applicant’s request. DPSIDC 
states that a thorough review of the applicant’s personnel 
records indicates he performed duty in AFSC 55590; however, he 
was not awarded this AFSC. Therefore, AFSC 55590 should not be 


reflected on his DD Form 214, as he possessed no other awarded 
AFSCs. 

 

The complete AFPC/DPSIDC evaluation is at Exhibit C. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

On 1 June 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 an 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.
