RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-04711 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His claims for Retroactive Stop Loss Pay be approved for the 
periods 25 September 2001 to 30 September 2002 and, 8 January 
2003 to 11 July 2003. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He was involuntarily mobilized in support of Operation ENDURING 
FREEDOM (OEF). He did not have the retainability to deploy and 
was involuntarily reenlisted on 25 September 2001 upon boarding 
the plane. This involuntary reenlistment is not annotated in the 
remarks section of his DD Form 4, Enlistment/Reenlistment 
Document Armed Forces of the United States, and, as such, makes 
him ineligible for Retroactive Stop Loss Pay. He believes that 
based upon his military records, he should qualify for 
Retroactive Stop Loss Pay for his 2001-2002 and 2003 deployments 
in support of OEF and Operation IRAQI FREEDOM (OIF). 

 

In support of his request, the applicant provides copies of his 
claims for Retroactive Stop Loss Pay; his DD Forms 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty; and his 
reenlistment contract. 

 

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

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant is a former member of the Air National Guard who 
was transferred to the Retired Reserve effective 18 October 2009 
in the grade of senior master sergeant (E-8). According to the 
DD Forms 214, provided by the applicant, he was recalled to 
active duty and deployed for the periods 25 September 2001 to 
30 September 2002, in support of OEF; and, from 8 January 2003 to 
11 July 2003, in support of OIF. 

 

The remaining relevant facts, extracted from the applicant’s 


master military personnel records, are contained in the Air Force 

evaluation at Exhibit B. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

ARPC/DPTT recommends denial. DPTT states the applicant 
voluntarily extended his enlistment on National Guard Bureau 
(NGB) Form 66, Extension of Enlistment in the Air National Guard 
and as a Reserve of the Air Force, from 18 October 1996 to 
18 October 2002, making him ineligible for Retroactive Stop Loss 
Pay for the period 25 September 2001 to 30 September 2002. His 
subsequent voluntary reenlistment for six years makes him 
ineligible for both periods of active duty. The applicant has 
not provided supporting documentation to show he was 
involuntarily extended past an approved separation/retirement 
date. He completed his enlistment and reenlisted for another six 
years in 2007, retiring on 18 October 2009. 

 

The complete DPTT evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit B. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant 
on 11 January 2011 for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit 
D). As of this date, this office has received no response. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

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. We note the 
applicant asserts he was involuntarily reenlisted on 25 September 
2001; however, we find no evidence to support his contention. 
Therefore, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the 
Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt their 
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.
