RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-04222 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

He be eligible for Reserve retired pay on 10 Nov 10, nine months 
prior to his 60th birthday on 10 Aug 11. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He was only six days short of performing the required 90 days of 
active duty service in support of a contingency operation to 
qualify for early retired pay. As a result, he will have to 
wait until 10 Feb 11 to qualify for Reserve retired pay. He 
performed eight days of active duty which were in support of 
operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, but the time is not 
creditable as it was performed under the provisions of Title 32, 
USC. 

 

In support of his request, the applicant provides copies of 
e-mail correspondence related to the matter under review and an 
early retirement worksheet. 

 

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

 

_________________ ______________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant served in the Texas Air National Guard (ANG) in 
the grade of master sergeant (E-7), effective and with a date of 
rank of 7 Dec 09. On 12 Sep 10, he was transferred to the 
retired reserve list. 

 

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. Accordingly, there is no need to recite these facts in 
this Record of Proceedings.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

ARPC/DPT recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of 
an error or injustice. Title 10, USC, Section 12731, 
establishes that eligibility for Reserve retired pay is attained 
at age 60. However, the National Defense Authorization Act 
(NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2008 (FY08) amended this law to authorize 
a member to earn reduction of their Reserve retired pay age by 
three months for each 90 days of qualifying active duty service 
performed per fiscal year. Such service includes 1) active duty 
performed as a result of an involuntary mobilization during a 
war or national emergency declared by the President or Congress, 
2) active duty performed voluntarily under 10 USC 12301(d), and 
3) Full-time National Guard duty under a call to active service 
authorized by the President or Secretary of Defense under 32 USC 
502(f) for the purpose of responding to a national emergency 
declared by the President or supported by Federal funds (i.e. to 
assist in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, to secure U.S. 
airports following the terrorist attacks of 11 Sep 01, etc.). 
The applicant is six days short of achieving his second 90-day 
aggregate of qualifying service for FY09. He has provided 
orders for eight days of active duty performed in FY09 which 
were not credited. Unfortunately, the eight days the applicant 
would like credit for are not creditable under this program as 
they were not performed under the qualifying provisions of 
Titles 10 or 32, USC. 

 

A complete copy of the ARPC/DPT evaluation is at Exhibit C. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 28 Jan 11 for review and comment within 30 days. 
As of this date, no response has been received by this office 
(Exhibit E). 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

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. After careful 
consideration of 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 applicant. 


Absent persuasive evidence 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 RECOMMENDS THAT: 

 

The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material 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.
