RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF: 				DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-03469

 						COUNSEL:  NONE

						HEARING DESIRED:  NO 


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active 
Duty, be amended to reflect he was permanently retired.   


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

On 27 Nov 07, he was placed on the Temporary Disability Retired 
List (TDRL) and was issued a DD Form 214.

On 8 May 11, he was removed from the TDRL and permanently retired 
with a 30 percent disability rating.

The Board should consider it in the interest of justice to 
consider his untimely application as the new DD Form 214 is 
required for his employment.  He is a General Schedule (GS) 
employee with the Navy and the amended DD Form 214 is required for 
his benefits.  

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant entered the Regular Air Force on 25 Jan 05 and was 
retired on 27 Nov 07 with a narrative reason for separation of 
“Disability, Temporary.”  

Per Special Order ACD-01925 dated 18 Apr 11, he was removed from 
the TDRL and was permanently retired effective 8 May 11 with a 
compensable percentage of 30 percent for physical disability.   


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSOR recommends denial.  The governing directives do not 
allow the publication of a new DD Form 214 for the requested 
reason.  DODI 1336.01, Certificate of Release or Discharge from 
Active Duty (DD Form 214/5 Series), and AFI 36-3202, Separation 
Documents, Table 2, Rule 18, state do not authorize the issuance 
of a new DD Form 214 when being removed from the TDRL or authorize 
the listing of a disability rating.  The effective date of the 
applicant’s disability and removal from the TDRL are effective 
8 May 11; after he separated from active service on 27 Nov 07.  
The DD Form 214 accurately records his placement on the TDRL.  The 
primary source document used to substantiate the subsequent 
changes to a veterans disability or rating effective after the 
date of the DD Form 214 is the special order, already in the 
applicant’s possession.  

A complete copy of the 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 20 Oct 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 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 
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 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.

 

The following members of the Board considered AFBCMR Docket Number 
BC-2014-03469 in Executive Session on 14 Apr 15 under the
