RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF: 	DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-00839
			COUNSEL:  NONE
			HEARING DESIRED:  NO 


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active 
Duty, be corrected to reflect combat and deployment dates for 
Iraq (1 Jul 04-31 Oct 04) and Saudi Arabia (Feb 01-Apr 01).


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His deployment and combat dates are not reflected on his DD Form 
214.

The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 25 Jul 86, the applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force.

According to his DD Form 214 issued in conjunction with his 
1 Aug 06 retirement, he was credited with 20 years and 6 days of 
active service.  He was also credited with 6 years, 4 months and 
13 days of Foreign Service.


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSOR recommends denial.  There is no authority under 
either DoD or Air Force directives to grant the requested 
action.  AFI 36-3202, Separation Documents, is the authority for 
what can and cannot be included on a DD Form 214.  The inclusion 
of combat and deployment dates and/or locations is not an 
authorized entry by the Air Force or authorized under the parent 
publication, DoDI 1336.01.  The applicant failed to prove the DD 
Form 214 was published in error by the omission of combat or 
deployment dates/locations.

The complete DPSOR 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 11 Aug 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 applicant’s 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.


The following documentary evidence pertaining to AFBCMR Docket 
Number BC-2014-00839 was considered:

	Exhibit A.  DD Form 149, dated 24 Feb 14.
	Exhibit B.  Applicant's Master Personnel Records.
	Exhibit C.  Memorandum, AFPC/DPSOR, dated 4 Jun 14.
