COUNSEL: None
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His National Guard Bureau (NGB) Form 22, Report of Separation and
Record of Service, be changed to reflect Satisfactory rather
than Substandard (unsatisfactory) performance in Block 23.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He believes his NGB Form 22 is incorrect, in that, in accordance
with Air Force Instruction (AFI) 36-3209, Separation and
Retirement Procedures for Air National Guard and Air Force
Reserve Members, paragraph 3.18, the reason reflected in Block
23, shall not be used if a member is in an entry-level status.
In support of his appeal, the applicant provides a copy of his
NGB Form 22 and an excerpt of AFI 36-3209.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is a former member of the Air National Guard, who
served from 5 October 2005 to 8 November 2008 and was
progressively promoted to the grade of senior airman (E-4). His
NGB Form 22 indicates he was honorably discharged effective
8 November 2008 for substandard (unsatisfactory) performance in
accordance with AFI 36-3209, paragraph 3.18. He served three
years, one month, and four days of satisfactory Federal service.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
NGB/A1POE recommends denial. A1POE states that in accordance
with AFI 36-3209, Attachment 1, Entry-level status ends 180 days
after beginning an initial period of entry-level active duty
training. The applicant served more than 180 days as indicated
in Block 13 on his NGB 22.
The complete A1POE evaluation is at Exhibit B.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATIONS:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant
on 5 October 2011 for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit
C). 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 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 its
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.
