His records be corrected to show he was medically discharged. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He was injured while a member of the Pennsylvania Air National 
Guard (PAANG). He was put on a medical profile and not allowed to 
participate in monthly Unit Training Assemblies (UTAs), or drill 
periods. However, he was then threatened with a charge of being 
Absent without Leave (AWOL) and told he would be prosecuted unless 
he quit.

excerpts from both his military and civilian medical records as 
well as a letter of resignation from the (PAANG).

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant began his military service on 11 Dec 1996. He was 
put on a medical profile that was updated on 12 Jun 05 to show him 
in a 4T status until 25 Aug 05. As such, he was not allowed to 
participate for pay and points until he had either been cleared by 
the Air Surgeon to do so or entered into the Disability Evaluation 
System (DES). On 29 Nov 05, unit medical personnel notified him 
that he had to report for a medical evaluation during the December 
05 UTA or his profile would be updated to a 4T making him again, 
unable to participate for pay and points. On 14 Oct 06, he 
submitted a letter of resignation effectively separating from the 
PAANG. The evidence of record indicates he had not participated 
since Dec 2005. He has 8 years of combined Regular and Reserve 
service.

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. We took notice 
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of 
the case; however, we find the applicant has not provided adequate 
evidence to support his request. The evidence he has provided is 
incomplete at best and does not serve to convince us that he has 
been the victim of an error or injustice. Nor has he provided 
evidence that would indicate he met his obligation to report to 
his unit medical personnel for regular physical exams. While it 
appears he could have been discharged for non-participation after 
missing nine or more UTA periods, he was given the opportunity to 
receive an honorable discharge if he requested resignation in lieu 
of administrative discharge action. He did so and was honorably 
discharged as a result. There simply is no evidence available 
that indicates he qualified for or was being considered for a 
medical discharge. Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the 
contrary, we find no 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.
