RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2013-05415
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His AF Form 3008, Supplement to Enlistment Agreement, be corrected to reflect the same enlistment agreement that is contained in his AF Form 3007, Guaranteed Training Enlistment Agreement Non-Prior Service United States Air Force.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
His AF Form 3008, is missing the terms of enlistment agreement statement that he enlisted for six years and will be promoted to the grade of airman first class (E-3) upon completion of technical training or completion of 20 weeks of training, whichever occurs first.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 14 May 13, the applicant enlisted in the Air Force for a period of six years. According to his AF Form 3007, Guaranteed Training Enlistment Agreement Non-Prior Service United States Air Force, his enlistment agreement indicates that he would be promoted to the grade of airman first class upon completion of technical training or completion of 20 weeks of training, whichever occurs first.
On 14 May 13, the applicant commenced his initial period of active service.
The applicant was promoted to the grade of airman first class (E-3), effective and with a date of rank of 12 Jul 13, eight weeks after commencing his initial enlistment.
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are described in the letter prepared by the Air Force office of primary responsibility (OPR), which is attached at Exhibit C.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIPE recommends denial. The AF Form 3008 is used to supplement the AF Form 3007 if there are additional promises guaranteed to the applicant by any Air Force representative in regard to enlistment grade, job, training, future assignments, future promotions, and all other personnel actions. After thorough review of the applicants military personnel record and other supporting documentation, there appears to not be an error or injustice in determining his AF Form 3008 justifying change. The applicants grade of E-3 with a date of rank (DOR) 12 Jul 13 is correct and in compliance with the terms of his enlistment contract.
A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSIPE 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 21 Jul 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.
