RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF: 	DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-01286

			COUNSEL:  NONE

			HEARING DESIRED:  NO 


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active 
Duty, Block 18, Remarks, be corrected to include her deployment 
to Ali Al Salim Air Base, Kuwait between May and Oct 06.


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

Her DD Form 214 does not accurately reflect her service.  She 
was assigned to Shaw Air Force Base and deployed to Ali Al Salim 
Air Base, Kuwait between the months of May and Oct 06 .

In support of her request, the applicant provided a copy of a 
Contingency Exercise Deployment (CED) Special Order TE-0568, 
dated 26 Apr 06 which directed a deployment from Shaw to Ali Al 
Salem, Kuwait for 136 days. 

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant initially entered the Regular Air Force on 10 Aug 
04.

On 9 Aug 08, the applicant was furnished an Honorable discharge, 
and was credited with 4 years of active service.

The applicant’s DD Form 214 does not reflect any Foreign 
Service.

On 29 Jul 14, AFPC/DPAPP completed a review of the applicant’s 
official military personnel record and documentation provided, 
and verified her “Boots-on-Ground” Foreign Service time at Ali 
Al Salem Air Base, Kuwait from 15 May 06 to 25 Sep 06, for a 
period of 4 months and 11 days.  They have requested the 
applicant’s DD Form 214 be administratively corrected to reflect 
the aforementioned Foreign Service.   

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are 
contained in the memorandums prepared by the Air Force office of 
primary responsibility (OPR), which are attached at Exhibit C 
and D.    


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSOR recommends denial indicating there is no evidence of 
an error or an injustice.  Governing directives along with Air 
Force policy do not allow the listing of deployments on a DD 
Form 214; regardless if location is overseas or within the 
continental United States. 

A complete copy of the AFPC/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 12 Nov 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 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 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 
(OPR) and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion 
that relief beyond that already granted administratively is not 
warranted 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.

Number BC-2014-01286 in Executive Session on 10 Mar 15 under the
