RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-02213 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His date of separation (DOS) be changed from 3 Sep 15 to 
7 April 14. 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

The DD Form 4/1, Enlistment/Reenlistment Document Armed Forces 
of the United States, which he initialed, signed, and dated 
contained a miscalculation resulting in an incorrect DOS. The 
DD Form 4/1 clearly states he reenlisted for 4 years and 
22 weeks, of which 22 weeks is considered an Active Duty 
Obligation. The DD Form 4/1 that is in his records was 
administratively changed after he signed it to reflect 
22 months, instead of 22 weeks. 

 

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

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The relevant facts pertaining to this application are described 
in the letter prepared by the Air Force office of primary 
responsibility which is included at Exhibit C. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSOA recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of 
an injustice. The applicant wants his Term of Enlistment (ToE) 
for his current reenlistment to be considered to be 4 years and 
22 weeks versus 4 years and 22 months. The applicant reenlisted 
in the RegAF on 9 Nov 09 for a period of 4 years and 22 months 
which established his new DOS as 3 Sep 15. At the time of his 
reenlistment, he had 22 months of obligated service remaining 
until his 5 Dec 11 DOS from his initial enlistment. However, on 
his DD Form 4/1 the word “weeks” was not properly lined out and 
replaced with the word “months” as Air Force guidance requires. 


In accordance with AF guidance, “years” and “months” are the 
only authorized enlistment/reenlistment terms. The Air Force 
does not allow enlistments in weeks. The applicant’s correct 
DOS of 3 Sep 15 has been in the personnel system and on his 
leave and earnings statement for three years. Any other 
notifications and/or RIPs he received during those three years 
would have also reflected a 3 Sep 15 DOS. Moreover, the 
applicant currently has an assignment for which he does not need 
retainability. However, if the AFBCMR approves his request, he 
will then need retainability for his current assignment and, 
therefore, be able to reenlist and earn a Selective Reenlistment 
Bonus (SRB) entitlement for up to 16 months, a period of time he 
is already obligated to serve based on his first and current 
enlistment. 

 

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSOA evaluation is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 22 Aug 12 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. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of an 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 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 the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; the 
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the 
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of 


newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this 
application.
