AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-00148
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
IN THE MATTER OF:
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
1. Her Total Federal Commissioned Service Date (TFCSD) be
adjusted due to an administrative error (beyond her control) that
occurred over 15 years ago.
2. Her honorable discharge be reversed and she be reinstated in
the Air Force Reserve (AFR) Category E program as a lieutenant
colonel (0-5), retroactive to 1 Oct 11.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
1. On 2 Nov 11, she was informed that she was being separated
from the Air Force Reserve (AFR), effective 1 Oct 11.
2. Prior to the 0-5 board, she was notified that she had reached
sanctuary and there were two outcomes: a) “not promoted, retire
as a major (0-4) at 20” or b) “promoted, retire as a 0-5 at 20”.
She had no idea there was a third option: “promoted, get
discharged before 20.”
3. The system kept her in the Inactive Status List Reserve
Section (ISLRS) too long and she got lost in the shuffle during
the time personnel records were being computerized. Her records
show a “good faith” effort on her part.
In support of her request, the applicant provides a personal
statement, copies of reserve order, CB-6 and BA-1807, AF Form
709, Promotion Recommendation; AF Forms 707, Officer Performance
Report (Lt thru Col), and other documentation associated with
her request.
The applicant's complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 1 Oct 11, the applicant was honorably discharged from all
appointments in the United States Air Force (USAF) in accordance
with Title 10, Section 14507(a).
1
The applicant was released from the AFR and transferred to the
Non-Obligated Non-Participating Ready Reserve Personnel Section
(NNRPS) for a period of two years, ending 16 Oct 96.
On 16 Oct 96, the applicant was transferred into the ISLRS where
she remained until she acquired an assignment on 10 Jan 06.
As a 0-4, the applicant did not have a Mandatory Separation Date
(MSD). As a 0-5, her MSD was 28 years from her TFCSD, which
resulted in a 1 Jun 09 MSD. Due to her promotion, the applicant
was separated effective 1 Oct 11.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
ARPC/DPT recommends approval. DPT states the applicant’s record
should be corrected to show a break in service from
16 Oct 99 through 9 Jan 06. By removing the additional ISLRS
time, her TFCSD, Total Years Service Date (TYSD), and Pay Date
would also be adjusted by 6 years, 2 months and 24 days. Her
MSD would change to 28 years of commissioned service calculated
from her new TFCSD.
In addition, DPT states should the Board approve the
recommendation; consideration should be given to reversing the
applicant’s honorable discharge and reinstatement in the AFRC
Category E program.
The complete DPT evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit B.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the
applicant on 1 Mar 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. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice warranting
corrective action. We took notice of the applicant's complete
submission in judging the merits of the case and agree with the
opinion and recommendation of the Air Force office of primary
responsibility (OPR) and adopt their rationale as the basis for
2
b. On 10 January 2006, she was reinstated in the Air Force
a. On 15 October 1999, she resigned her commission and was
our conclusion the applicant has been a victim of an error or
injustice. In view of the above recommendation and noted
comments by ARPC/DPT, the Board is of the opinion the
applicant’s honorable discharge should be reversed and she be
reinstated in the Category E program as a lieutenant colonel,
retroactive to 1 Oct 11. Accordingly, we recommend the
applicant’s records be corrected to the extent indicated below.
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 issues involved.
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably
considered.

_________________________________________________________________ AIR FORCE EVALUATION: ARPC/DPT recommends approving the applicants request to correct his record to show he was discharged from ISLRS effective 11 August 1999. DPT indicates it was discovered that the time the applicant spent in ISLRS in excess of three years would not allow him to obtain 20 years of satisfactory service before his MSD. Exhibit C. Letter, DFAS-IN, not dated.

Her TFCSD is 8 May 82 and her MSD was computed as 1 Jun 2010 based on the first day of the following month in which she completed 28 years of commissioned service. Even though she did not participate in a unit or individual Reserve program for 3 years and 11 months from 22 Oct 92 to 18 Sep 96, that time still accounts for her TFCSD of 8 May 82 and cannot be adjusted because she did not participate. Had she selected the SSB, she would also have been transferred to the NNRPS on 22 Oct 92 as...

In the alternative, applicant requests his MSD be changed to reflect 20 March 2010, based on the date he should have been assigned to ISLRS (24 Aug 84) versus the date he was assigned (19 Oct 84). _________________________________________________________________ AIR FORCE EVALUATION: ARPC/DPP states Reserve officers generally remain assigned to ISLRS for three years after which time they can be screened for an administrative discharge board, tender their resignation, or transfer to a...

Although assignment to ISLRS is a break in active Reserve status, and an officer’s date of rank is adjusted accordingly, since they are ineligible for promotion consideration, it is not a break in service. Although applicant had four years, four months, and 12 days of non- participating service, he has had no break in service, and no error or injustice occurred with his assignment to ISLRS and subsequent change to his R/R date. ...
