 RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

 AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-02888 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

He be credited with foreign service for serving in Germany and 
Japan. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He would like his DD Form 214, Report of Separation from Active 
Duty, corrected to reflect his military duty in Germany and Japan 
during DESERT STORM while serving in the Air Force Reserve. He 
needs his foreign service updated in order to receive medical 
benefits. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachment, is at 
Exhibit A. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The relevant facts pertaining to this application are contained 
in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of the Air 
Force. Accordingly, there is no need to recite these facts in 
this Record of Proceedings. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

ARPC/DPSVT recommends denial. DPSVT was not able to verify the 
applicant’s foreign service due to the lack of finding any source 
documents in his official military records. DPSVT requested 
additional information from the applicant; however, he did not 
respond. Therefore, they cannot support his request. 

 

The ARPC/DPSVT complete evaluation is at Exhibit B. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 


APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to applicant on 
29 Oct 10 for review and response. As of this date, no response 
has been received by this office (Exhibit D). 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

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 error or injustice. After careful 
consideration of the applicant's request and the available 
evidence of record, we find insufficient evidence of error or 
injustice to warrant corrective action. The facts and opinions 
stated in the advisory opinion appear to be based on the evidence 
of record and have not been adequately rebutted by the applicant. 
Absent persuasive evidence the applicant was denied rights to 
which entitled, appropriate regulations were not followed, or 
appropriate standards were not applied, we find no basis to 
disturb the existing record. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

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.
