 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

He be credited with an additional 23 days of active duty for pay 
and points. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

Through no fault of his own; after completing 23 days of active 
duty, he was not credited with pay or points due to 
administrative problems resulting from his transfer from the Air 
National Guard to the Air Force Reserve. 

 

The applicant was advised by the Reserve unit officials and the 
Base Individual Mobilization Augmentee Administrator (BIMAA) 
that he would be able to stay on orders and be paid for his 
participation. However, he was later advised by his gaining 
major command that he could not be paid. 

 

He filed a complaint through the Inspector General office; 
however, they advised the applicant that the gaining unit 
completed their actions in accordance with proper guidelines and 
directives. 

 

In support of his appeal, the applicant provides a personal 
statement; copies of his Leave and Earnings Statements (LESs); 
email correspondence, and other supporting documents and 
computer printouts. 

 

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

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

Based on the available records, the applicant was conditionally 
released from the ANG, on 30 May 2010 and transferred to the Air 
Force Reserve, effective 31 May 2010. The applicant’s 
AF Form 526, Air National Guard/Air Force Reserve Point Credit 
Summary, reflects the applicant completed the following: During 


Retention/Retirement (R/R) Year Ending 3 Aug 10, he was credited 
with 318 active duty (AD) points, 64 inactive duty training 
(IDT) points and 15 membership points, with a total 397 points, 
and 365 retirement points. 

 

The applicant’s LES reflects that he has a debt of $1742.25 for 
the period of 1 – 15 Jun 10. 

 

In addition, his LES reflects that he was paid and credited for 
the following training periods: 

 

16 – 29 Jun 10 AD 

30 Jun – 11 Jul 10 IDT 

1 – 15 Aug 10 AD 

 

On 9 Sep 10, the Wing Inspector General (IG) dismissed the 
applicant’s claim, noting that AFNWC/DP followed Air Force 
procedures and regulations and is unable to pay him for any 
mandays worked prior to his status changing and his records 
transferring to the Reserve system. In addition, they noted: 

 

 1) He was not eligible to work mandays until both his 
Physical Training (PT) and medical records were in the Reserve 
system; 

 2) Not all of the required actions were complete at the 
time he worked the mandays referenced in his complaint; 

 3) He was awarded points for some of the mandays 
referenced in his complaint.

THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFRC/A1K recommends denial, stating, in part, that they agree 
with the Wing IG. Additionally, they noted that the applicant 
failed to specify exactly what dates of duty he performed. 

 

The complete AFRC/A1K evaluation, with attachments, 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 29 Jul 11 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. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice warranting 
partial relief. The applicant contends he was not credited with 
pay or points for 23 days of active duty he served due to 
administrative problems with his transfer from the ANG to AFR. 
The Air Force Reserve office of primary responsibility agrees 
with the Kirtland AFB IG office that the applicant was not 
eligible to work mandays until his PT and medical records were 
in the reserve system. However, the evidence of record reveals 
the applicant was gained from the ANG to RMG Det 13 effective 
31 May 10. The Command Manday Allocation System (CMAS) 
authorization was received 6 Aug 10, requesting MPA for the 
period of 31 May 10 to 30 Sep 10. Consequently, it appears that 
due to no fault of the applicant, he served additional days of 
what he believed to be paid active duty days in good faith and 
was never advised he was not eligible until after the fact. In 
view of the above, we believe the applicant has established 
reasonable doubt that the circumstances surrounding his active 
duty tour were through no fault of his and elect to resolve any 
doubt in this matter in favor of the applicant. 
Notwithstanding, the above, while the applicant requests 
23 additional days of active duty, it appears that he was 
afforded an alternative resolution which resulted in him 
receiving a total of 365 retirement points for the retirement 
year ending 3 Aug 10. As such, we believe that rather than 
awarding the applicant the 23 additional days he has requested, 
awarding an additional 15 days of active duty will provide him 
full and fitting relief. While the applicant will not gain 
additional points for retirement, his record will reflect active 
duty for the period of 1–15 Jun 10. Therefore, we recommend the 
applicant’s record be corrected as indicated below. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT: 

 

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air 
Force relating to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that for 
Retention/Retirement Year 4 August 2009 through 3 August 2010 he 
be credited with an additional fifteen (15) paid active duty 
(AD) points for the period from 1 – 15 June 2010; resulting in 
333 active duty points; sixty-four (64) inactive duty training 
(IDT) points; and fifteen (15) membership points, and that this 
period was a year of satisfactory Federal service.
