RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-04564 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

Her records be corrected to reflect she was promoted to technical 
sergeant (TSgt) and subsequently retired. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

She was forced to transfer to the Inactive Ready Reserve (IRR) 
because her security clearance was terminated due to past 
financial issues; as a result, she missed the opportunity to be 
promoted to TSgt after she had fulfilled the requirements for the 
promotion. She served honorably for 23 years and should have 
been retired. She was not given any notice or information prior 
to requesting retirement orders and is unable to obtain a retired 
identification (ID) card. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, 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: 

 

AFRC/A1K reviewed this application and recommends denial. Air 
Force Reserve enlisted members are recommended for promotion by 
the assigned supervisor and approved by the promotion authority. 
The supervisor has the sole discretion to recommend promotion to 
the promotion authority when an individual has met the promotion 
eligibility requirements for promotion to the next higher grade. 

 

As for her request related to retirement, Air Force Reserve 
members must have 20 years of satisfactory service or have 15 but 


less than 20 years of satisfactory service and be subject to 
involuntary discharge based on physical disqualification from 
continued military service to qualify for a Reserve retirement. 
The applicant’s Point Summary Credit reflects she has 16 years of 
satisfactory service. Furthermore, there is no documentation to 
indicate the applicant was subject to discharge due to a physical 
disqualification from continued military service. As for her 
contention she was forced to transfer to the IRR due to her 
security clearance issues, the Automated Records Management 
System (ARMS) reflects she was transferred to the IRR based on 
her voluntary request; and was subsequently separated from the 
IRR due to the expiration of her term of service. Therefore, 
since she was not retirement eligible, she would not have been 
provided notice or information for requesting retirement orders 
or an ID card. 

 

In addition, A1KP contacted the applicant, requesting 
documentation to substantiate her request. The applicant stated 
the commander had retired and could not be reached. 

 

The complete AFRC/A1K evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit 
B.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to applicant on 
27 May 11 for review and response. As of this date, no response 
has been received by this office (Exhibit C). 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

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 applicant. 
Absent persuasive evidence applicant was denied rights to which 
she 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.
