RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:		DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2013-04009
		COUNSEL:  NONE

		HEARING DESIRED:  NO 



APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her date of discharge on her DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, be changed to 28 Feb 91.  



APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

Her DD Form 214 reflects a discharge date of 31 May 88, but her Honorable discharge certificate from the Air National Guard reflects the correct date of 28 Feb 91.   

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



STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 4 Feb 88, the applicant enlisted in the Florida Air National Guard (ANG).  

On 2 Mar 88, the applicant entered active duty to attend Basic Military Training (BMT) and technical training.  

On 31 May 88, the applicant was furnished an Honorable discharge from active duty due to having completed initial active duty for training (IADT), and reverted to her traditional (part-time) status as an ANG member.    

On 28 Feb 91, the applicant was furnished an Honorable discharge from the ANG and was credited with 3 years and 27 days of total Reserve service.   

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are contained in the memorandum prepared by the Air Force office of primary responsibility (OPR), which is attached at Exhibit C.


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

NGB/A1PS recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of an error or an injustice.  AFI 36-3202, Separation Documents, paragraph 2.2, states that the DD Form 214 will be used when a member is released or discharged from active duty.  Therefore, the applicant’s DD Form 214 will not reflect the period of time she served in the ANG, only the period of time she served on active duty.  The applicant only served on active duty while attending Basic Military Training and Technical School prior to entering the ANG.  She was discharged from the ANG on 28 Feb 91, which is correctly reflected on her National Guard Bureau (NGB) Form 22.  After reviewing the applicant’s DD Form 214 and her National Guard Bureau Form 22, both of these documents are correct.  

A complete copy of the NGB/A1PS 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 2 Jun 14 for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D).  As of this date, no response has been received by this office.



FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS OF THE BOARD:

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 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 (OPR) and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion the applicant has not been the victim of an error of injustice.  Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting the requested relief.



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.
