RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-04772 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

Her Active Duty Service Commitment (ADSC) be changed from 
16 Feb 15 to 9 Sep 14. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

She volunteered for a Permanent Change of Station (PCS) to 
Creech AFB, NV to fly the MQ-1 Predator unmanned aerial vehicle, 
with the understanding that her PCS commitment would be in line 
with her latest ADSC of 16 Sep 14, tied to her GI Bill benefit 
transfer, and would not create a commitment extension. After 
arriving at her new duty station, they were no longer training 
initial students and they would have to get training from a 
Temporary Duty (TDY) location, thus changing her class start 
date from 27 Jun 11 to 15 Nov 11. This resulted in her ADSC 
being extended to 16 Feb 15, five months more than she agreed 
upon prior to her PCS. She would not have volunteered for the 
assignment had she been aware of this information and would not 
have incurred an additional five months on her ADSC. She 
reluctantly signed the new training and ADSC paperwork because 
she knew she would have incurred the commitment regardless of 
her signature. Had she known that her training would be delayed 
she would not have agreed to retrain to a new weapon system. 

 

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

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in 
the grade of major (O-4). 

 

On 22 Nov 10, the applicant acknowledged receipt of her PCS 
assignment as well as her understanding of her ADSC associated 
with accepting the assignment. 

 


On 6 Dec 10, the applicant was issued PCS orders to her new 
assignment at Creech AFB, NV with a Report No Later Than Date 
(RNLTD) of 15 Jan 11. On 13 Jan 11, the applicant arrived at 
her new duty station. 

 

On 19 Sep 11, the applicant acknowledged the new ADSC of 
9 Feb 15 and agreed to the new training dates by signing the 
AF Form 63, ADSC Acknowledgement Statement. 

 

In accordance with AFI 36-2107, Active Duty Service Commitments 
(ADSC), Table 1.1, Rules 6 and 16, there is a two-year ADSC for 
PCS (CONUS to CONUS) and a three-year ADSC for Advanced Flying 
Training (AFT). 

 

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

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIP recommends denial, indicating the applicant received, 
acknowledged and agreed to accept and serve the ADSC for the 
later training. She also had the option to accept or decline 
the later training on the AF Form 63 in Section II. Instead, 
she accepted the training and agreed to the ADSC that began upon 
completion of the ADSC incurring event. As a result, her ADSC 
was established to expire on 16 Feb 15. Nonetheless, the 
assignment notification report on individual personnel (RIP) did 
not reflect either ADSC outlined in AFI 36-2107 and should have. 
On 12 Nov 10, the Total Force Service Center (TFSC) staff 
transmitted an AF Form 63 to the Military Personnel Section 
(MPS) at Peterson AFB, CO; however, a signed copy of the 
acknowledgment statement was not returned. As a result, the 
applicant transferred to the new assignment without the TFSC 
receiving a completed AF Form 63. On 13 Sep 11, the TFSC 
created another AF Form 63 for the applicant and transmitted it 
to the new servicing MPS at Nellis AFB, NV. Unlike the first 
form, this one had new training dates of 15 Nov 11 through 
17 Feb 12. On 19 Sep 11, the applicant received and 
acknowledged the ADSC and agreed to the new training dates. 

 

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSID 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 21 Dec 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 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 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.
