RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF: 	DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2013-04756
					COUNSEL:  NONE	
					HEARING DESIRED:  NO 


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

The following blocks on his DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or 
Discharge from Active Duty, issued in conjunction with his 1 Jun 
01 retirement be changed:

	1.  Block 11, Primary Specialty, changed to “3P071” “Security 
Force Craftsman” rather than “81150” “Security Specialist.”

	2.  Block 18, Remarks, “Air Force Basic Military Training 
(BMT), be changed from “6 weeks, Jan 81,” to “6 weeks, Jun 81.” 
(Administratively Corrected)


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

The new specialty codes and titles changed prior to his discharge 
and should have been reflected on his DD Form 214.  

He was awarded the Security Forces Protection Badge.

He entered active duty in May 81 and completed BMT in Jun 81.

The Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) benefits counselor 
advised him to have the corrections made.

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 1 Jun 01, the applicant retired after serving 20 years and 
25 days of active service.

On 9 Jan 14, DPSIT administratively corrected the applicant’s DD 
Form 214 in Block 18, Remarks, “Air Force Basic Military Training 
(BMT), to reflect “6 weeks, Jun 81.” 


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIC recommends partial relief.  AFSCs 81lX0 (all skill 
levels) were converted to 3P0X1 effective 1 Nov 93, well prior to 
the applicant's 31 May 01 separation date.  While the applicant 
served more than one year in 3P0X1, Security Forces, his record 
does not support service of one or more years in an AFSC 3P071 
duty position.

Recommend correcting the Security Forces AFSC and title for his 
DD Form 214, Block 11 to reflect "3P051, Security Forces 
Journeyman" vice "81150, Security Specialist."  

The complete DPSIC 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 14 Mar 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 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 to warrant 
changing the applicant’s DD Form 214, Block 11, Primary Specialty, 
to read “3P071, Security Force Craftsman.”  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.  In view of the foregoing and in 
the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to 
recommend granting this portion of his application.

4.  Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate 
the existence of error or injustice to warrant changing his 
DD Form 214, Block 11 to reflect "3P051, Security Forces 
Journeyman."  Having carefully reviewed this application, we agree 
with the recommendation of the Air Force office of primary 
responsibility and adopt the rationale expressed as the basis for 
our conclusion that the applicant has been the victim of an error 
or injustice.  Therefore in addition to the administrative 
correction to his DD Form 214 noted above, we also recommend his 
DD Form 214, Block 11, be corrected to reflect "3P051, Security 
Forces Journeyman."  Accordingly, we recommend the applicant’s 
record be corrected to the extent indicated below.



THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force 
relating to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that his DD Form 214, 
Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, issued in 
conjunction with his 1 Jun 01 retirement, was amended in Block 11, 
Primary Specialty, to reflect “3P051, Security Forces Journeyman” 
rather than “81150, Security Specialist.”


The following members of the Board considered AFBCMR Docket Number 
BC-2013-04756 in Executive Session on 7 Aug 14 and 22 Oct 14 under 
the provisions of AFI 36-2603:
