RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-03925
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her records be corrected to reflect the following:
a. Meritorious Unit Award, First Oak Leaf Cluster.
b. Deployment to Al Udeid, Qatar.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She deployed to Al Udeid, Qatar and was assigned to a unit that
received the Meritorious Unit Award; however, her records were
never updated.
The Board should consider her untimely application in the
interest of justice because her records were never evaluated for
awards during the time of her deployment.
In support of her requests, the applicant provides a copy of a
travel voucher.
The applicants complete submission, with attachment, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
According to the applicants paid travel voucher dated 14 Jun
07, she deployed to Al Udeid, QATAR during the period 10 Jan
07 13 May 07.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
NGB/A1PS recommends denial and states in part, that the
applicant has not exhausted avenues of administrative relief.
In this respect, the applicant needs to submit copies of her
records review from the virtual Military Personnel Flight
(vMPF), DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from
Active Duty; or contingency order issued for the time period in
question, and a special order indicating that she is eligible
for award of the Meritorious Unit Award to the Force Support
Squadron (FSS) for review.
The complete A1PS evaluation is at Exhibit B.
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the
applicant on 10 Feb 15, for review and comment within 30 days
(Exhibit C). As of this date, no response has been received by
this office.
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.
2. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice. In this
respect, we note this Board is the highest administrative level
of appeal within the Air Force. As such, an applicant must
first exhaust all available avenues of administrative relief
provided by existing law or regulations prior to seeking relief
before this Board, as required by the governing Air Force
Instruction. The Air Force office of primary responsibility has
reviewed this application and indicated there is an available
avenue of administrative relief (Force Support Squadron) the
applicant has not first pursued. In view of this, we find this
application is not ripe for adjudication at this level as there
exists a subordinate level of appeal that has not first been
depleted. Therefore, in view of the above, we find no basis to
recommend granting the relief sought in this application.
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified that he has not exhausted all
available avenues of administrative relief prior to submitting
her application to the BCMR; and the application will only be
reconsidered upon exhausting all subordinate avenues of
administrative relief.
