               RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:		DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2014-00462

 				COUNSEL: NO

				HEARING DESIRED:  NO

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

His 4.5 days of lost leave be restored.  

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He was placed on special duty to perform a Commander’s Directed 
Investigation and was limited in the ability to take leave as 
originally planned.  He was able to take 23 days of leave 
throughout the year; however the special duty limited leave 
usage was the only reason he was unable to meet the goal of 
using all of his leave by the end of the fiscal year. 

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

________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is a member of the Air National Guard serving in 
the grade of master sergeant. 

________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

NGB/A1PP recommends approval.  AFI 36-3003, Military Leave 
Program, paragraph 10, Special Leave Accrual (SLA), allows 
members who are faced with circumstances that prohibit them from 
taking leave to accumulate leave in excess of 60 days; 75 days 
until 30 September 2015.  Paragraph 10.6 SLA Approval Authority 
confirms the wing or vice commander has final approval 
authority.  The wing commander or vice wing commander will 
recommend approval for SLA packages requiring Air Force Board of 
Correction of Military Records approval.  

The applicant’s wing commander supports approval of the request 
to restore 4.5 days of leave to the applicant. 

The complete A1PP evaluation is at Exhibit B. 

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 15 September 2014, for review and comment within 
30 days (Exhibit C).  As of this date, this office has received 
no response. 

________________________________________________________________

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 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 and adopt its rationale 
as the basis for our conclusion that relief should be granted.  
The applicant’s wing commander supports approval to restore 4.5 
days of leave and we believe that it is in the interest of 
justice to do so.  Therefore, we recommend the applicant’s 
record be corrected as indicated below.

________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air 
Force relating to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that 4.5 days 
of leave be restored to his current leave account.

________________________________________________________________
