RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-01279
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His SF 88, Report of Medical Examination, dated 16 Aug 68, be
removed from his records.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
The following items on his SF 88 are incorrect:
Item 44, Dental: He only had two wisdom teeth extracted
while on active duty.
Item 51, Height: He is 73.5 inches and not 70 inches.
Item 52, Weight: He was 185 pounds and not 155 pounds when
he separated.
Item 54, Eye Color: His eye color is hazel and not blue.
Item 61, Near Vision: He was diagnosed with astigmatism
while he was in the military which resulted in the Air Force
providing him with reading glasses.
Item 71, Audiometer: He was never given an exit exam for
hearing.
The applicant provides no rationale as to why the Board should
consider it in the interest of justice to consider his untimely
application.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 30 Mar 65, the applicant entered the Regular Air Force and on
18 Oct 68, he was released from active duty.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFMOA/SGH recommends removal of page two of the applicants SF 88,
dated 16 Aug 68. They recommend no corrections be made to Item
44, Dental, page one as there is no documentation to support that
he had two lower wisdom teeth removed while stationed at South
Ruislip Air Base, England. The second page of the applicants SF
88 does not include a name or SSN indicating that it is likely a
misfiled document that belongs to another members medical record
as it contains the incorrect height, eye color, hearing and vision
information. The provided copies of the applicants official
passport dated 8 Aug 68 and statement of personal history reflect
the applicants height at 6 feet and 2 inches and his eye color to
be hazel. The SF 88 does not reflect any missing teeth.
The complete SGH 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 25 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 not timely filed; however, it is in the
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice to warrant
removing the applicants SF 88 dated 16 Aug 68, from his record.
We took notice of the applicants complete submission in judging
the merits of this case; however, we do not find the evidence
presented sufficient to convince us that the SF 88 should be
removed. The applicant also contends that Item 44, Dental is
incorrect; however, the applicant has not provided sufficient
evidence to support his contentions. Should the applicant provide
evidence, such as dental records to substantiate the SF 88 is
incorrect, we may be willing to reconsider his application. In
view of the above and in the absence of evidence to the contrary,
we find no basis to grant the relief sought in this portion of his
application.
4. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate
the existence of an error or injustice to warrant removal of the
applicants SF 88 dated 16 Aug 88, page 2 which (includes Items
51, 52, 54, 61, and 71). Therefore, we agree with the
recommendation of the Air Force OPR and adopt the rationale
expressed as the basis for our decision that the applicant has
been the victim of either an error or an injustice. Accordingly,
we recommend the applicant's records be corrected to the extent
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 his SF 88,
Report of Medical Examination, dated 16 Aug 68, page two, be
removed from his records.

The Medical Practice Review Board (MPRB) ignored the opinion of the legal reviewer, who indicated there was a violation of due process. In light of this, neither the applicant’s credentials records nor any other Air Force, DOD, State or professional reporting records should be expunged of the evidence of the applicant’s record of substandard performance and dental practice.

The Board should find it in the interest of justice to consider his untimely application because he was suffering from major depression. There is no reference of depression in the applicants medical records during his Air Force military service from 1971-1974. Exhibit D. Letter, SAF/MRBR, dated 4 Oct 14.

His medical records show that the only time he was issued a profile was on 30 September 1968, while at Fort Benning, Georgia. However, the Board can find no evidence to support his contention that he had all of his teeth at the time of separation or that he entered the Army in June 1967 instead of September 1967. In view of the foregoing, the applicant’s records should be corrected as recommended below.
