RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-03160
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Permanent Change of Station (PCS) code on his extended
active duty (EAD) orders be changed from PCS code A, which
denotes Accession Move to PCS code V, which denotes Low Cost
Move so he can apply for a Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH)
Waiver.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
1. In 2009, the Air Force implemented a program to allow retired
rated officers to return to active duty via the Retired Rated
Recall program.
2. On 17 May 10, he was voluntarily ordered to EAD in accordance
with (IAW) Title 10, U.S.C., 688a and was authorized a fully
funded PCS move from Aurora, Colorado to Peterson Air Force Base
(AFB), Colorado. He never intended on moving to Colorado
Springs and was assured that he would be allowed to commute.
Had he known about the BAH waiver or low cost PCS move when he
received his orders, he would have requested the change prior to
moving.
In support of his appeal, the applicant provides a copy of his
PCS orders and a personal statement.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
_______________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 9 Sep 11, AFPC/DPSIPR notified the applicant that as an
accession, he received orders to travel to his first permanent
duty station; not between permanent duty stations.
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application,
extracted from the applicants master personnel records, are
described in the letters prepared by the Air Force offices of
responsibility (OPR) which are attached at Exhibits C and D.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIP recommends denial. DPSIP states changing the PCS
code on the applicants EAD orders from A to V is neither
authorized nor appropriate. By definition, PCS code V is a Low
Cost Move member is moving between permanent duty stations.
In other words, a member must be on active duty, assigned to a
permanent duty station and subsequently receive orders for a PCS
move to a second duty station in order to execute a Low Cost
move.
The complete DPSIP evaluation is at Exhibit C.
AF/A1PA recommends denial. A1PA states that as an ANG member
recalled to active duty, the applicant is accurately classified
as an Accession. Therefore, the PCS code A applies.
The complete A1PA evaluation is at Exhibit D.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the
applicant on 17 Jul 12 for review and comment within 30 days
(Exhibit E). As of this date, this office has not received a
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 applicants complete submission in judging the merits of
the case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation
of the offices of primary responsibility (OPRs) and adopt their
rationale as the basis for our conclusion 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.
4. The applicant's case is adequately documented and it
has not been shown that a personal appearance with or
without counsel will materially add to our understanding of
the issue(s) involved. Therefore, the request for a
hearing is not favorably considered.
________________________________________________________________
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.
