                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 
 
IN THE MATTER OF: 
 
   
 
   
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
THE APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 
 
His reenlistment contract be changed from a 6 year to a 4 year 
enlistment.  
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
THE APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 
 
He  was  advised  in  order  to  get  the  maximum  selective 
reenlistment bonus (SRB) for his career field; he would need to 
reenlist  for  six  years  to  receive  the  $90,000.00  bonus  after 
taxes.    However,  once  he  received  his  first  payment,  which  was 
less than what he was told, he inquired again and was advised by 
a  different  counselor  that  he  only  needed  to  reenlist  for 
4 years to receive the maximum bonus. 
 
He  has  made  several  requests  to  have  his  reenlistment  contract 
changed; to no avail. 
 
In support of his appeal, the applicant provides a copy a letter 
from the force support squadron, dated 15 Oct 10 and a copy of 
his enlistment contract. 
 
The  applicant’s  complete  submission,  with  attachment,  is  at 
Exhibit A. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
STATEMENT OF FACTS: 
 
The  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.   
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
AFPC/DPSOA  recommends  denial,  stating,  in  part,  the  applicant 
reenlisted on 29 Sep 08 for 6 years with entitlement to a zone C 

multiple  7.0  SRB.    He  received  the  maximum  SRB  payment  of 
$90,000.00  minus  taxes.    If  the  applicant  had  reenlisted  for 
4 years,  he  would  have  received  $5000.00  to  $6,000.00  short  of 
the  maximum  of  $90,000.00;  finance  determines  the  exact  amount 
of SRB payment.   
 
The complete AFPC/DPSOAA evaluation is at Exhibit C. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
A  copy  of  the  Air  Force  evaluation  was  forwarded  to  the 
applicant  on  14  January  2011  for  review  and  comment  within 
30 days.  As of this date, no response has been received by this 
office (Exhibit D). 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
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.  We took notice 
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of 
the case; however, 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  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.
