RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2013-03279
		COUNSEL:  NONE
		HEARING DESIRED:  NO


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Date of Rank (DOR) to the rank of Airman First Class (A1C, 
E-3) be changed to 28 February 2013.


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His enlistment documents reflect his enlistment pay grade as E-
2, not E-1.  Therefore his DOR to the rank of A1C should be 
28 February 2013.

In support of his request, the applicant provides copies of his 
DD Form 4, Enlistment/Reenlistment Document – Armed Forces of 
the United States and DD Form 1966, Record of Military 
Processing – Armed Forces of the United States.

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 30 August 2011, via DD Form 4, the applicant agreed that he 
would enlist in the Air Force Reserve for six years, in the pay 
grade of E-1.

On 8 November 2011, the applicant’s DD Form 4 and DD Form 
1966 were corrected to reflect he entered the Air Force in the 
pay grade of E-2.  The applicant acknowledged “I understand that 
I am enlisting in the grade of E-2 with Stripes for Education.” 

On 3 September 2012, the applicant began Initial Active Duty 
Training (IADT).


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFRC/A1K recommends approval.  Based on the corrected enlistment 
documents, on 3 September 2012, the applicant should have 
entered IADT in the rank of Airman (Amn, E-2), with the Time-in-
Grade (TIG) effective as of that date.  Upon completion of Basic 
Military Training and six months TIG in the rank of Amn, 
accompanied by a recommendation by the promotion authority, the 
applicant would have been eligible for promotion the rank of A1C 
on 3 March 2013.  Therefore, based on the corrected DD Form 4, 
his request meets the basic requirement for correction of his 
promotion history.

The complete A1K evaluation is at Exhibit C.


APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

On 17 October 2013, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was 
forwarded to the applicant 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.  Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice to warrant 
partial relief.  While the applicant requests that his DOR to 
the rank of A1C be changed to 28 February 2013, we agree with 
the opinion and recommendation of the Air Force office of 
primary responsibility that his DOR and Promotion Effective Date 
(PED) should be changed to 3 March 2013.  Accordingly, we 
recommend his records be corrected as set forth below.


THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air 
Force relating to APPLICANT be corrected to show that:

      a.  Any references to the pay grade of E-1 be deleted from 
his promotion history.

      b.  He was promoted to the reserve grade of Amn with a DOR 
and a Promotion Effective Date (PED) of 3 September 2012.

      c.  He was promoted to the reserve grade of A1C, with a DOR 
and a PED of 3 March 2013.
