RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-00444
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
The date he entered the Air Force Reserves be changed from 5 Sep
13 to 4 Sep 13 in order to eliminate any break of service.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He applied for separation from Active Duty via the Palace Chase
program in Feb 13 in order to join the Air Force Reserves. His
release from Active Duty was contingent upon this fact. This
one day break in service resulted in the fact he and his family
do not qualify for TRICARE coverage via the TAMP program.
He began working for the unit as a civilian while waiting for
the Office of the Secretary of Defense to process his paperwork.
When completed, his service was only backdated to the 5th instead
of the 4th of September.
In support of his request, the applicant provided a copy of his
Application for Ready Reserve Assignment, Palace Chase Statement
of Understanding and Approved Resignation letter.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application,
extracted from the applicants military records, are described
in the memoranda prepared by the Air Force offices of primary
responsibility (OPR), which is included at Exhibit C.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
ARPC/DPA recommends approval of the applicants request to
reflect no break in service. They found no administrative error
and conclude the break in service was no fault of the applicant.
A complete copy of the ARPC/DPA 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 15 Sep 14 for review and comment within 30 days
(Exhibit D). 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 an error or injustice. We took
notice of the applicant's complete submission in judging the
merits of the case and 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 been the victim of an error. Therefore, we
recommend the applicant's records be corrected as indicated
below.
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:
The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air
Force relating to the APPLICANT be corrected to show that he was
not released from active duty effective 3 September 2013 but was
continued on active duty through 4 September 2013.
