AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

 

 
 
DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2012-02094 
COUNSEL:  NONE 
HEARING DESIRED:  NO 

IN THE MATTER OF: 
   
   
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 
 
His  retirement  year  ending  23  June  2011  be  changed  from  an 
unsatisfactory  Federal  service  year  to  a  satisfactory  Federal 
service  year  by  moving  his  6  and  7  March  2010  Unit  Training 
Assembly (UTA) points to 10 and 11 July 2010. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 
 
His  unit  had  their  Operational  Readiness  Inspection  (ORI) 
18 through 21 March 2010 and to make up for this the unit did not 
have  drill  in  April  or  July  2010.    In  November  2010,  he  was 
diagnosed with skin cancer and missed drills in November 2010 and 
February  2011.    By  missing  these  drills  (July,  November  and 
February) his 2010 Retention and Retirement (R&R) year ended with 
47 points – 3 points short of a good year towards retirement. 
 
The  applicant's  complete  submission,  with  attachments,  is  at 
Exhibit A. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
STATEMENT OF FACTS: 
 
The applicant is currently serving in the Air National Guard in 
the grade of technical sergeant. 
 
The relevant facts pertaining to this application, extracted from 
the  applicant’s  military  records,  are  contained  in  the  letter 
prepared by the appropriate office of the Air Force at Exhibit B. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
ARPC/DPTS recommends denial.  DPTS states the applicant’s point 
history shows he received 2 paid active duty points for 6 through 
7  March  2010.    The  2  active  duty  points  for  6  through  7  March 
2010, along with the 8 inactive duty training points for 4 drill 
days during the ORI were recorded in the applicant’s record for 

 
 

 

the retirement year ending 23 June 2010, which was a satisfactory 
Federal service year. 
 
For retirement year ending 23 June 2011, the applicant performed 
2 drills days each for 8 months which equaled 32 inactive duty 
training  points.    Since  a  weekend  drill  was  not  scheduled  for 
July 2010, no points were recorded.  Subsequently, the applicant 
did  not  perform  drills  for  August  2010,  November  2010  and 
February 2011, which were on the schedule.  Also, no active duty 
annual  tour  days  were  performed  during  his  unsatisfactory  R&R 
year. 
 
The applicant did not receive a satisfactory service year because 
he did not participate for the minimum number of points.  There 
was  no  error  or  injustice.    Retirement  points  cannot  be 
rearranged  in  the  calendar  to  create  a  satisfactory  year.  
Retirement  points  are  recorded  on  the  day  they  are  performed.  
The duty on 6 through 7 March 2010 was not scheduled as a unit 
training assembly, but was scheduled as active duty for special 
training for 1 point each day, which the member received.  The 
applicant  only  completed  7  annual  tour  days  during  fiscal  year 
2011, none of which occurred in the R/R year.  The applicant did 
not participate during 3 of the possible schedule drill weekends, 
which  adds  up  to  12  possible  points.    No  physical  profile 
occurred  or  work  restrictions  documented.    The  applicant 
apparently did not coordinate with his unit to request equivalent 
training or non-pay inactive training duty or any options he may 
have had to ensure he would receive a satisfactory service year. 
 
The DPTS complete evaluation is at Exhibit B 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
On 17 July 2012, 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 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.    The 
applicant’s  contentions  are  duly  noted;  however,  we  agree  with 

 

2 
 

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.    Therefore,  in  the  absence  of  evidence  to  the 
contrary,  we  find  no  basis  to  recommend  granting  the  relief 
sought in this application. 
 
_________________________________________________________________ 
 
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT: 
 
The  applicant  be  notified  the  evidence  presented  did  not 
demonstrate  the  existence  of  an  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.

    ________________________________________________________________ THE APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: Upon his transfer from active duty to the Air Force Reserve, the Military Personnel Flight advised him that by completing his normal training requirement he would be able to acquire enough points to be credited with a good year. The well-intentioned course of action led to an unsatisfactory year of service for RYE Feb 96. Accordingly, we recommend the applicant’s record be corrected as indicated below.

    The Air Force now claims that she earned the additional points; however, they cannot be credited because she was “no longer in the bonus program.” She served in the Air Force specialty expressly stated in her contract (46N1) when earning the additional 12 points prior to Mar 09 and she should be credited with the additional 12 points. Her next duty performance was recorded on 12 Aug 06. Exhibit E. Letter, Applicant, dated 27 Aug 10, w/atchs.
