RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-00793
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His enlistment into the Air Force Reserves (AFR) be corrected
from 30 Aug 13 to 21 Aug 13, to remove his break in service.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
His intentions were to separate from the Army into the AFR
without a break in service.
His AFR recruiter informed him that he sent a DD Form 368,
Request for Conditional Release, to the Army to release him from
the Army Inactive Ready Reserve (IRR). The form was not signed
until 26 Aug 13 and his enlistment was scheduled for 30 Aug 13.
The AFR recruiter failed to enlist him in to the reserves
without a break in service from active duty in the United States
Army (USA).
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 21 Aug 08, the applicant enlisted in the Army.
On 20 Aug 13, he received an honorable discharge from active
duty.
On 21 Aug 13, he transferred to the Army IRR as an E-4.
On 30 Aug 13, he enlisted in the Air Force Reserves.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIE recommends denial. There is no evidence of an error
or an injustice. AFPC Enlisted Accessions Branch confirmed that
on 30 Aug 13, the applicant initialed the DD Form 4/1,
Enlistment/Reenlistment Document Armed Forces of the United
States, along with other enlistment documents. DPSIE cannot
validate why there is a break in service from the Army to the
AFR and it appears the recruiter did everything correct.
Following guidance in AFI 36-2604, Service Dates and Dates of
Rank, chapter 2, paragraph 6, 30 Aug 13 is the correct date of
enlistment.
The complete DPSIE 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 16 May 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. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice. We took
notice of the applicants complete submission in judging the
merits of the case; however, we agree with the opinion and
recommendation of the Air Force office of primary responsibility
and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion the
applicant has not been the victim of an error of injustice.
Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find
no basis to recommend granting the requested relief.
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of material 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.

In this case, when the CY11 board considered the applicant, he did not have the required OPR in his records. In view of this and noting the fact that a required, HAF-directed OPR was not a matter of record when his record was considered for promotion by the CY11 major board, we find the applicant was denied fair and equitable promotion consideration to the grade of major based on an incomplete record.
