APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 14 Feb 2014, 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 not timely filed; however, it is in the
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice. We took notice
of the applicants 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 relief beyond
that already granted administratively is not warranted.
Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find
no basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this
application. We note the applicant requests copies of the
decedents flight line badge and AF Form 899; however, the Board
is not the custodian for the decedents master personnel
records. We recommend she contact the NPRC, 1 Archives Drive
St. Louis, MO 63138, or via electronic mail at
MPR.center@nara.gov for a copy of the decedents available
records.
________________________________________________________________
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.
