RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF: 	DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-01067
			COUNSEL:  NONE
			HEARING DESIRED:  NO 


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

The following corrections be made to her DD Form 214, 
Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty:  

      Air Force Commendation Medal (AFCM) be added (will be 
administratively corrected).
      
      Her primary Air Force Specialty Code (AFSC) be corrected to 
reflect 42P1 (3 years, 1 month) and 42P3 (1 year, 6 months) 
versus 42P3 (4 years 6 months).


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

Documents were provided to her base Military Personnel Flight 
(MPF) for the AFCM citation prior to her separation, but the 
AFCM was not added prior to closing out the DD Form 214.  For 
the AFSC correction, her inexperience with the online 
application resulted in the primary specialty error. 

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 21 Jun 09, the applicant entered the Regular Air Force.

On 15 Jan 14, the applicant received an honorable discharge.  
She was credited with 4 years, 6 months and 25 days of active 
service.


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSOR acknowledges the applicant is authorized the AFCM and 
that it is not recorded on the DD Form 214.  Her DD Form 214 can 
be administratively corrected upon resolution of her other 
requests.

The complete DPSOR evaluation is at Exhibit C.

AFPC/DPSIC recommends denial of her request to modify the AFSC 
information on her DD Form 214, indicating there is no evidence 
of an error or an injustice.  AFI 36-3203, Separation Documents, 
states to “Enter the Primary AFSC (PAFSC) and all additional 
AFSCs in which the member served for 1 year or more, during 
member’s continuous active military service.  In each AFSC, show 
the highest skill level in which the member performed duties.  
For each AFSC give the AFSC title (Not Duty Title) with the 
years and months of service.”   The applicant performed duty as 
a 42P3 for at least 12 months, accordingly, her DD 214, Block II 
information is correct, as is.

The complete DPSIC evaluation is at Exhibit D.


APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the 
applicant on 11 Jul 14 for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit E).  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 error or injustice.  We took notice 
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of 
the case; however, we agree with the opinions and 
recommendations of the Air Force offices of primary 
responsibility and adopt their rationale as the basis for our 
conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an 
error or injustice.  Therefore, aside from the administrative 
correction to add the AFCM, we find no basis to recommend 
granting the additional relief sought in this application.


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-2014-01067 was considered:

	Exhibit A.  DD Form 149, dated 8 Mar 14, w/atchs.
	Exhibit B.  Applicant's Master Personnel Records.
	Exhibit C.  Memorandum, AFPC/DPSOR, dated 5 Nov 13.
