RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-01296
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her narrative reason for separation be changed from
Miscellaneous/General Reasons to Palace Chase.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
The narrative reason for separation is incorrect as she went
through the Palace Chase program under the 2014 Limited Active
Duty Service Commitment (LADSC) Waiver Program. She would like it
changed so that she may receive TRICARE.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 8 Jul 09, the applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force.
On 15 Mar 14, the applicant was release from active duty with a
narrative reason for separation of Miscellaneous/General
Reasons.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOR recommends denial. The applicant did not provide any
evidence that an error or injustice occurred in the processing of
his discharge. In accordance with Personnel Services Delivery
Memorandum (PSDM) 13-64, individuals who are approved under the
LADSC Waiver Program are to be approved under AFI 36-3208,
Administrative Separation of Airmen, paragraph 3.15, Miscellaneous
Reasons. The narrative reason for separation reflected on the DD
Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty
will be Miscellaneous/General Reasons. Therefore, the
applicants Separation Program Designator (SPD) code and narrative
reason for separation are correct as reflected on her DD Form 214.
Since both the commander and the discharge authority recommended
an honorable characterization, the character of service on her DD
Form 214 is correct and in accordance with DoD and Air Force
instructions.
The records show that she signed an AF IMT 1288, Application For
Ready Reserve Assignment, on 5 Nov 13. This application is used
for individuals who want to join the Air National Guard (ANG) or
the Air Force Reserves (AFR) after early release from active duty
without any break in service. The requirement for PALACE CHASE is
that the applicant be accepted into the ANG or AFR prior to the
applicants date of separation. The records shows that the
applicant was not accepted into an AFR unit until 17 Mar 14, which
is the date the AFR unit commander signed the AF IMT 1288. This
date is two days after the applicants effective date of
separation. Therefore, her PALACE CHASE information could not be
included on her separation orders. The separation processing was
properly completed in accordance with the applicable PSDM guidance
and Air Force instructions.
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 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
(OPR) 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.
