            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Narrative Reason for Separation on  his  DD  Form  214,  Certificate  of
Release or Discharge from Active Duty, be changed to Force Shaping.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His  narrative  reason  states  “Completion  of  Required  Active  Service;”
however, he was separated due to “Force Shaping.”

In support of the application, the applicant submits his DD Form 214  and  a
letter from the Department of Veterans’ Affairs.

The applicant's complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air  Force  in  the  grade  of  airman
basic on 14 Dec 04  for  a  period  of  six  years.   He  was  progressively
promoted to the grade of airman first class.

On 15 Mar 07, he was honorably discharged from  service  for  completion  of
required active service.  He served two years, three months and two days  on
active duty.

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application, extracted  from
the applicant’s military records, are contained in the  letter  prepared  by
the appropriate office of the Air Force at Exhibit C.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

HQ AFPC/DPSOS recommends denial.  DPSOS states the applicant  was  separated
based on guidance in MPFM 06-73,  FY06  Air  Force  Enlisted  Force  Shaping
Program, dated 16 Oct 06.  His records reflect he was selected for the  Date
of Separation (DOS) Rollback Program  by  his  commander  due  to  receiving
punishment under Article 15, Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ).  On  1
Nov 06, he received an Article 15 for aider, abettor, or  counselor  of  the
driver of a vehicle at the time of an  accident,  and  having  knowledge  of
said accident, he did wrongfully order,  cause,  or  permit  the  driver  to
leave the scene of the accident without  making  his  identity  known.   The
applicant was reduced to the grade  of  Airman  Basic,  ordered  to  forfeit
$636.00 pay per month for 2 months, received 45  days  extra  duty  and  was
reprimanded.

The DOS rollback program utilizes the Separation  Program  Designator  (SPD)
code JBK (less than six years of active service) or … with  a  corresponding
narrative reason for separation of “Completion of Required Active  Service.”
  The  member  is  denied  further  continuation  or  reenlistment  and  the
DOS/Expiration of Term of Service (ETS) may be involuntarily accelerated.

Although the applicant was separated under  a  force  shaping  program,  the
specific program which resulted  in  his  discharge  was  the  DOS  Rollback
program.

The complete DPSOS evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit C.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 15  Jan
10 for review and comment within 30 days.  As of this date, this office  has
received no response (Exhibit D).

_________________________________________________________________

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  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  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.
