HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His 21 days of lost leave be restored.
________________________________________________________________

He was unable to take leave during the past year due to the high
operations tempo and his upgrade training requirements while
assigned to a Security Forces Military Working Dog section.
He deployed for six months to Afghanistan, followed by a three
month temporary duty (TDY) for upgrade training.
In support of his request, the applicant provides a memorandum
from the Security Forces Commander requesting reinstatement of
the applicants lost leave for calendar year (CY) 2011.
His complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in
the grade of staff sergeant. He is a Security Forces Dog
Handler.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial. DPSIM, states in part, that
according to AFI 36-3003, Military Leave Program, a member's
application must clearly establish that an error or injustice by
the Air Force caused the member's lost leave. Additionally,
10.8.1 states that Special Leave Accrual (SLA) is not authorized
when a TDY precludes a member from using leave. Furthermore,
10.1, states in part, that the situation preventing members from
using leave must have been caused by a catastrophe, national
emergency and/or crisis or operations in defense of national
security. SLA shall not be used as a means to authorize the
accumulation of leave in excess of 75 days that is a result of
the members' failure to properly manage their leave balance.
Additional documents were requested from the member on 29 Nov
11.
The complete DPSIM evaluation is at Exhibit B.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the
applicant on 25 Jan 12, for review and comment within 30 days
(Exhibit C). 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 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 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.
