RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2013-03156
XXXXXXX COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
THE APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
1. Her date of entry in the USAF be changed to 1 Nov 80 rather
than 2 Apr 81.
2. Her Date of Separation (DOS) be changed to 31 Oct 86 rather
than 7 Jul 81.
________________________________________________________________
THE APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Based on her enlistment and separation documents her entry date
and DOS are in error.
These errors are preventing her from receiving Department of
Veterans Affairs (DVA) and other benefits.
In support of her appeal, the applicant provides copies of her
DD Form 4, Enlistment/Reenlistment Document Armed Forces of
the United States, dated 1 Nov 80; DD Form 214, Certificate of
Release or Discharge from Active Duty, issued on 7 Jul 81, and
her Honorable Discharge Certificate, dated 31 Oct 86.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 1 Nov 80, the applicant enlisted in the Air National Guard
(ANG) for a period of four years.
On 2 Apr 81, the applicant was placed on Extended Active Duty
(EAD) for her Initial Active Duty for Training (IADT) tour to
complete Basic Military Training (BMT) and technical school
training. On 7 Jul 81, she was released from active duty with a
reason for separation of completion of IADT.
On 2 May 82, the applicant was discharged from the Rhode Island
ANG (RIANG) and transferred to the Air Force Reserve Individual
Ready Reserve (IRR). Her service was characterized as Under
Other Than Honorable Conditions (UOTHC) with a reason for
separation of unsatisfactory participant in scheduled training.
On 31 Oct 86, the applicant was honorably discharged from the
USAF after completing her six year military service obligation.
________________________________________________________________
THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
NGB/A1PP recommends denial, stating, in part, that they did not
find the DD Form 214 to be in error. The DD Form 214 accurately
reflects the limited period of active duty annotated on the
Point Credit Accounting Reporting System (PCARS) report for the
same dates. Furthermore, the DD Forms 2l4 are not utilized in
the ANG to record the entire ANG enlistment period.
In accordance with AFI 36-3202, Separation Documents, Chapter 2,
Table 2, Rule 1; Issue a DD Form 214 for a period of active
duty, active duty for training, full-time training duty, a
special tour of active duty, active duty for special work, or an
Active Guard/Reserve (AGR) tour.
The applicant submitted a DD Form 214 and while her entire ANG
time is supported by her enlistment document, and Discharge
Certificate, only certain periods of active duty are authorized
to be entered on the DD Form 214. Furthermore, her PCARS has a
period of active duty from 2 Apr 81 to 7 Jul 81 which matches
her submitted DD Form 214 in Blocks 12a and 12b.
Having complied with the AFBCMR directive and the governing
directive, there is no evidence to support the applicants
claim.
The complete A1PP evaluation is at Exhibit C.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the
applicant on 10 Jan 14 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 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 Reserve 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. In
view of the above and 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.
