RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2013-05860
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His record be corrected to reflect a year of satisfactory
service for retirement year ending (RYE) 28 May 2012.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Due to circumstances beyond his control he lost his billet with
USSTRATCOM/J7. However, he was still able to obtain 13 points
through Military Personnel Appropriation (MPA) orders which
should warrant an exception for RYE 28 May 2012.
The applicant's complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is currently serving in the Air Force Reserves in
the grade of major.
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application,
extracted from the applicants military personnel records, are
contained in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of
the Air Force at Exhibit B.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
ARPC/DPTS recommends approval. DPTS states it appears that
USSTRATCOM's decision to discontinue the applicants position
prevented him from earning sufficient participation points to
complete a qualifying year of service for RYE 28 May 2012.
The circumstances that prevented the applicant from obtaining
points were that his overage contract was discontinued,
FY12 annual training was denied due to lack of funding and late
acquisition of funds did not allow him to participate in IDTs
for the greater part of FY12 and RYE 28 May 2012.
The applicant submitted three letters of justification in
support of his appeal, which states that he made a genuine
effort to participate for points; the Command Historian, also
recognized the applicants effort to complete participation; and
the Director of Joint Exercises and Training, verified the
applicants overage status was due to internal re-organization
and was no fault of the applicant.
If the Board agrees with our recommendation, the records should
be corrected to show the member was awarded 22 additional non-
paid IDTs for RYE 28 May 2012. This will give the member a
total of 50 total retirement points and a satisfactory service
year.
The complete AFPC/DPTS evaluation, with attachments, is at
Exhibit B.
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 15 September 2014, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was
forwarded to the applicant for review and response within
30 days (Exhibit C). As of this date, no response has been
received by this office.
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 warranting
corrective action. In this respect, the Air Force office of
primary responsibility (OPR) has indicated the decision to
discontinue the applicants position prevented him from earning
sufficient participation points to complete a qualifying year of
service for RYE 28 May 2012. Therefore, in order to preclude
the possibility of an injustice to the applicant, the Board
recommends the records be corrected as 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 he was
credited with an additional 22 non-paid inactive duty training
points during the retirement/retention year ending 28 May 2012,
resulting in 50 total points; and that the period ending 28 May
2012 is a year of satisfactory Federal service.
