RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-02758
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active
Duty, be corrected as follows:
1. Show that he was recalled to active duty to support Kosovo.
2. His Pay Grade be changed from staff sergeant (E-5) to
technical sergeant (E-6).
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He left active duty and went directly to Active Reserve status. He
was recalled to active duty in support of Kosovo and sent to Ft.
Meade for 57 days and was subsequently promoted to the grade of E-6.
He was released from Active Reserve status on 7 March 2000 via
Reserve Order DA-02063 dated 8 March 2000.
The Board should find it in the interest of justice to consider his
untimely application because an accurate DD Form 214 is required to
apply for Department of Veterans Affairs benefits.
In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of Reserve
Order DA-02063 dated 8 March 2000, which relieved him from the 91st
Intelligence Squadron and assigned him to the Non-obligated Non-
participation Ready Personnel Section.
His complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
According to the applicants DD Form 214, he served with the 29th
Intelligence Squadron in support of OPERATION Allied Force Kosovo
from 16 May 1999 to 12 July 1999. His narrative reason for
separation is USAFR Member Released Due to Demobilization.
According to a Personal Data Report of Individual Personnel, dated
30 March 2015, the applicants date of rank to the grade of E-6 is
1 January 2000.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
ARPC/DPTS recommends denial. DPTS conducted a review of the
applicants supporting documentation and the limited documents he
had in his personnel records; however, none of these documents
reflect that his DD Form 214 is currently incorrect. The DD
214 reflects the time he served in support of OPERATION Allied Force
Kosovo. His promotion to the grade of E-6 was effective 1 January
2000; therefore, it is outside the inclusive dates of the DD 214 in
question. Should the applicant provide supporting documents, such
as orders placing him on active duty, points summary, or pay
records, DPTS can correct the applicants DD Form 214 reflecting his
active duty service.
The complete DPTS evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit C.
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 20 October 2014, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded
to the applicant for review and comment within 30 days. As of this
date, no response has been received by this office (Exhibit D).
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. 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 the rationale
expressed as the basis for our conclusion the applicant has not been
the victim of an error or injustice. Therefore, in the absence of
evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting the
relief sought in this application.
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that the
application was denied without a personal appearance; and that the
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of newly
discovered relevant evidence not considered with this application.
