RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-04385
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His records be corrected to show he was enrolled in the Enlisted
College Loan Repayment Program (ECLRP), effective 15 Aug 10.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Section E of the Air Force form 3008, Supplement to Enlistment
Agreement, was mistakenly annotated to show he had been briefed
on the ECLRP program and had elected not to participate, thereby
waiving his rights to any further participation consideration.
He was not briefed on the program and his recruiter and liaison
were aware that participation in the ECLRP was the main reason
for his enlistment. The section was initialed as a result of
misunderstanding or in haste.
The applicants complete submission is at Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in
the grade of senior airman (E-4).
The applicant signed the Air Force form 3007, Guaranteed
Training Enlistment Agreement, on 10 Nov 09, which included a
statement in Section E of the form which indicates, I have been
briefed on the College Loan Repayment Program (CLRP) and either
do not meet the program requirements, or elect not to
participate. I understand my initial enlistment is the only
opportunity to enroll in the CLRP and I permanently waive my
CLRP enrollment option.
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are
contained in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of
the Air Force, which is attached at Exhibit C.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIT recommends denial. The ECLRP is a recruitment
incentive open to eligible first-time enlistees having
federally-insured student loans.
The applicants AF Form 3008 was initialed and signed that he
understood he was waiving his right to enrollment in the ECLRP.
He has not provided further documentation to support a reversal
of his enrollment status nor has he provided evidence to
indicate he was a victim of a government error or injustice.
DSITs complete 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 6 Jan 12 for review and comment within 30 days. As
of this date, no response has been received by this office.
________________________________________________________________
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 an 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 the
applicant. Absent persuasive evidence the applicant was denied
rights to which he was 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 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.
