             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-02576

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

1.  The narrative reason for separation  (Fraudulent  entry  into  Military
Service/Drug Abuse) be changed on his DD Form 214, Certificate  of  Release
or Discharge from Active Duty to allow him to enter the Army.

2.  He receive service credit for 24 days of active service.

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He was honest when asked about his past drug use and was  allowed  to  enter
the military.  He passed the first drug test and failed the second test.

In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy  of  his  DD  Form
214.

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:

AFPC/DPSOS reviewed this application and recommends  denial.   DPSOS  states
Airmen are given an entry  level  separation  with  uncharacterized  service
characterization when separation is initiated with the  first  180  days  of
continuous active service.  It was determined by the Department  of  Defense
(DOD) that if a member served  less  than  180  days  of  continuous  active
service, it would be unfair to the member and the  service  to  characterize
their limited service.  In addition, the discharge was consistent  with  the
procedural and substantive requirements of  the  discharge  instruction  and
was within the discretion of the discharge  authority.   The  applicant  has
not submitted any evidence or  identified  any  errors  or  injustices  that
occurred in the discharge processing.  He provided  no  fact  to  warrant  a
change to his discharge.  Furthermore, the governing instruction notes  time
spent in an enlistment that is determined to  be  fraudulent  and  has  been
specifically terminated by reason of fraud is  not  creditable  service  and
will not be entered on the DD Form 214.

The complete DPSOS evaluation is at Exhibit C.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

On 17 Dec 10,  copies  of  the  Air  Force  evaluations  were  forwarded  to
applicant for review and comment within 30 days.  To date,  a  response  has
not been received (Exhibit E).

_________________________________________________________________

FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS OF THE BOARD:

We have carefully reviewed the applicant’s submission and  the  evidence  of
record and do not find a sufficient basis to excuse the untimely  filing  of
this application.  The applicant did not file within three years  after  the
alleged error or injustice was discovered as required by  Title  10,  United
States Code, Section 1552 and  Air  Force  Instruction  36-2603,  Air  Force
Board for Correction of Military Records.  The applicant  has  not  shown  a
plausible reason for the delay in filing, and we are not persuaded that  the
record raises issues of error or injustice which require resolution  on  the
merits.  Thus, we cannot conclude it would be in the interest of justice  to
excuse the untimely filing of this application.

________________________________________________________________

DECISION OF THE BOARD:

The application was not timely filed and it would not be in the interest  of
justice to waive the  untimeliness.   It  is  the  decision  of  the  Board,
therefore, to reject the application as untimely.
