IN THE CASE OF:
BOARD DATE: 5 May 2015
DOCKET NUMBER: AR20140008058
THE BOARD CONSIDERED THE FOLLOWING EVIDENCE:
1. Application for correction of military records (with supporting documents provided, if any).
2. Military Personnel Records and advisory opinions (if any).
THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST, STATEMENT, AND EVIDENCE:
1. The applicant requests:
a. reissuance of Fort Belvoir retirement order 192-0001 (she probably means 192-0020), dated 10 July 2008 or Fort Belvoir retirement order 142-0001, dated 21 May 2008, if this order has not be revoked or rescinded, by amending as follows:
(1) delete the line "Voluntary Retirement: 20 years, 8 months, 25 days" and replace it with the entry "Voluntary Retirement: 21 years, 05 months, 06 days"; and
(2) delete the line "Section 1405: 21 years, 5 months, 21 days" and replace it with the entry "Section 1405: 22 years, 02 months, and 17 days."
b. revoke U.S. Army Human Resources Command (HRC) retirement order
P-02-190041, dated 23 February 2011, with amendment orders P-02-190041A01, dated 21 April 2011 and P-02-190041A02, dated 27 April 2011.
2. The applicant states:
a. She cannot travel or move her personal property from her last active duty station to her house of selection using retirement order P-02-190041, dated 23 February 2011 with amendments P-02-190041A01, dated 21 April 2011 and P-02-190041A02, dated 27 April 2011 that HRC issued in 2011.
b. She earned regular retirement with over twenty years of active Federal service while serving in an active duty status in the Army.
c. In accordance with the Joint Federal Travel Regulation, paragraphs U5130-84 (Member Travel Upon Retirement), U5230-B3 (Dependent Travel), and U55365 (Retirement), she is entitled to travel and move her family and personal property from her last active duty station to her home of selection.
d. She initially received retirement orders (published in Format 600, per Army Regulation (AR) 635-200 (Active Duty Enlisted Administrative Separations), paragraph 12-18 (Retirement Orders) from the Fort Belvoir Transition Center while serving in an active duty status, but her service time was incorrect.
e. She immediately notified the Fort Belvoir Transition Center's Noncommissioned Officer-in-Charge (NCOIC) who informed her that HRC had to correct the service computation documents. When HRC finally corrected the service time in 2011, this agency issued new orders in Format 686 that she cannot use to move to her home of selection.
f. She forwarded copies of the new orders to both the Fort Belvoir Travel and Transportation Offices in preparation for her move. In May and July 2011, personnel from both offices advised her that the orders need to be amended in order to use them for travel and movement of her household goods; however, HRC informed her that their office does not publish retirement orders with Movement Designator Codes (MDC) or fund cites (which authorize movement). HRC also advised her that she would not receive any additional amendments from their office. Therefore, she could not use any orders HRC issues that will allow her to complete her travel and movement of her household goods to her home of selection.
g. The HRC retirement orders and amendments should have never been published. The Fort Belvoir Transition Center personnel should have amended the original Fort Belvoir retirement orders to reflect the correct service time once they received that information from HRC. Instead, HRC published new orders that she did not need and the Transition Center personnel revoked the original Fort Belvoir order despite the fact that she informed both parties that she had already used the order. She had to use the orders to preserve her transportation entitlements because HRC was taking too long to provide the corrected service computation documents.
h. She also informed the Transition Center personnel that the Fort Belvoir Retirement Services Book (pages 49-50), in an excerpt from AR 635-200, outlined specific guidance on the format and authority for retirement orders, as well as on the amendment and revocation of retirement orders. It was her understanding that once an order was issued, it was not supposed to be revoked. They responded stating they were not aware of any such guidance and they revoked orders all the time. Based on AR 635-200, Soldiers who retire from an active duty status are issued orders in Format 600, which provides the correct wording and codes for the authority to travel and ship household goods to a home of selection.
i. This situation is unjust because she needs a retirement order in Format 600 that accurately reflects the correct service time in order to receive her correct retirement pay and that includes a correct MDC in order to complete her travel arrangements. Initially, she had a retirement order with no corrected supporting service computation documents.
j. She now has re-calculated service computation documents with orders in a format that prevents her from moving to her home of selection. It is unjust to take away the order that provides for her travel entitlement. The order that she needs was revoked after she used it. As a result, her life has been on hold.
3. The applicant also states:
a. She was called to active duty after 9/11 and she served at the Pentagon on numerous tours (under various orders) from December 2001 until June 2008 without a break in service. She initially received retirement orders from the Fort Belvoir Transition Center in May 2008 with a retirement date of 30 June 2008. Her service time was incorrect on the orders and she immediately notified the Transition Center. She received a new set of order in July 2008, but she still does not have corrected service computation documents.
b. The Transition Center NCOIC advised her that HRC had to provide the service computation documents before she could receive her DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty) The Fort Belvoir Transition Center NCOIC told her to complete as much out-processing as she could without turning in her orders
c. She was extremely concerned about the accuracy of the service time because she is entitled to an accurate document because her service time directly affects retirement pay.
d. She suffered through numerous pay issues with Finance from the time she began Officer Basic Course throughout her military career. She has been diligently working with Finance since July 2007 to correct the issues, but they have not been resolved.
e. Finance erroneously took over 60 days of leave which prevented her from taking terminal leave and caused her to be indebted to the Government. She needed an accurate leave balance to include on her request for retirement. She contacted Retirement Pay about her situation and learned that any unresolved pay issues would definitely carry over to retirement pay. It took Finance from July 2007 to November 2011 to correct her pay and it took from May 2008 to February 2011 to receive corrected service computation records from HRC.
f. The Fort Belvoir Transition Center would not issue her DD Form 214 without the corrected documents from HRC. By July 2008, the Fort Belvoir Transition Center NCOIC transitioned to another assignment and HRC started transitioning to St. Louis, MO and later transitioned to Fort Knox, KY. She claims that she encountered one road block after another because of these personnel transitions and office relocations. Each time she connected with one of the numerous personnel, who began working her case, they left without notifying her, completing her paperwork, or providing any information about her case to replacement personnel.
g. She eventually connected with the HRC Transition Branch Chief who offered immediate assistance. The Transition Branch Chief stated he would refer her to another office even though this office was not responsible for processing her paperwork. She provided the Transition Branch Chief with several supporting documents, including her retirement orders and a detailed explanation of the events leading up to the time she coordinated with this Transition Branch Chief. She informed the Transition Branch Chief that she had used her retirement orders to preserve her transportation entitlements because so much time had transpired. She clearly expressed to the Transition Branch Chief that she did not have corrected service computation documents, but she and the Fort Belvoir Transition Center received service computation documents several months later.
h. The HRC office also published new retirement orders that not only contained some incorrect information, but that specifically stated "NO TRAVEL INVOLVED." She asked the Transition Branch Chief why she did she receive new orders when she already had orders. She also questioned him about the errors and the phrase restricting travel because she felt that the verbiage would adversely impact her ability to travel and ship her household property. The Transition Branch Chief stated that HRC does not publish orders with a MDC, which is needed for travel and shipment of household goods. The Transition Branch Chief told her that if she could obtain a fund cite he would include it on the orders. HRC was not willing to correct any of the other erroneous information on the orders.
4. The applicant further states:
a. She then contacted Fort Belvoir transportation personnel at the Joint Personal Property Shipping Office, Mid-Atlantic and the Personal Property/Passenger Office. She informed the representative at the Joint Personal Property Shipping Office that she had already used her original retirement orders to preserve her transportation authorization. The personnel provided her more insight on the facts about retirement travel. She learned that funding for her travel/move does not come from HRC and that it is the MDC that authorizes her move. They reiterated the fact that when a Soldier retires in an active duty status with 20 years of active Federal service, that Soldier is authorized to move to his/her home of selection. The representative from the Personal Property/Passenger Office advised her that she needed a current MDC and the representative informed his personnel not to proceed with any transportation paperwork for her until the situation with her orders was resolved. She relayed this information to the HRC Transition Branch Chief, but he responded that he no longer had anything to do with officer retirements. She contacted the HRC Personnel Actions Branch Chief, but learned the Personnel Actions Branch Chief would be on temporary duty (TDY) for a few weeks.
b. She received assistance from a Soldier who coordinated with the Transition Branch Chief and helped her to effect the correction of some of the errors on the orders, but she still didn't have an MDC. The Chief, Military Personnel Division, Directorate of Human Resources, Fort Belvoir interceded with HRC and she received the MDC on the orders.
c. During the time he was coordinating with Fort Belvoir and HRC for corrected orders, Finance was still working to correct her pay issues. She sent the new orders to the two Fort Belvoir offices responsible for processing her travel and transportation paperwork. In May and July 2011, personnel from both offices notified her that she could not travel or move her personal property based on the verbiage on the orders. Personnel from the Transportation Office questioned why the original retirement orders were revoked after she had already used them to extend her entitlements.
d. Finance had successfully resolved all of her pay issues in November 2011. She had to return to Fort Belvoir for out-processing through Finance, Travel and Transportation. She notified HRC that she could not use the last orders they issued and she forwarded the information from both the Fort Belvoir Travel and Transportation Offices. The HRC Branch Chief informed her that she would not receive any additional amendments from her office. She again contacted the Chief, Military Personnel Division at Fort Belvoir who forwarded her case to the Transition Center Officer in Charge for action. The HRC Branch Chief coordinated with HRC, but he was unable to resolve the problem. He then advised her to go through this Board.
e. She has worked diligently with various agencies and agencies to resolve this matter, but she now has documents that do her no justice. She thought she had closure when she received the MDC in April 2011, but she later found out she could not use the orders. She learned that her original order should never have been revoked. The delay in receiving her DD Form 214 has resulted in her not being able to receive medical care when she became ill despite the fact that she enrolled in and paid for TRICARE Prime before her retirement date.
f. HRC made it clear that they did not issued the orders she need to complete her move, but they do issue orders for Soldiers who retire in an inactive status (Format 686). The orders she initially received were issued from an active status and only needed amending once HRC provided the corrected service computation documents. She discovered that she still have the very first retirement order, dated 21 May 2008 (Format 600) issued by the Fort Belvoir Transition Center. She never received a revocation for this set of orders.
g. She remained in the Washington, DC metropolitan area from July until October 2008 at her own expense while working to correct her orders and pay issues. When she returned to her home of record, her stepdaughter and her toddler were homeless and came to her place to stay. Her father-in-law was a dialysis patient and private business owner. When her father-in-law's health began to fail, her husband had to help run the business. Her father-in-law broke his arm and hip so they became the sole care providers for him because her mother-in-law was placed in a nursing home for Alzheimer's disease. Her father-in-law also suffered a couple of strokes and later passed away. They also had to deal with additional home repair in the aftermath of Hurricane Irene as well as help care for her sister-in-law, a disabled diabetic.
5. The applicant provides several documents as identified in the List of Enclosures for Tabs A through Q.
CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:
1. Title 10, U.S. Code, section 1552(b), provides that applications for correction of military records must be filed within 3 years after discovery of the alleged error or injustice. This provision of law also allows the Army Board for Correction of Military Records (ABCMR) to excuse an applicant's failure to timely file within the 3-year statute of limitations if the ABCMR determines it would be in the interest of justice to do so. While it appears the applicant did not file within the time frame provided in the statute of limitations, the ABCMR has elected to conduct a substantive review of this case and, only to the extent relief, if any, is granted, has determined it is in the interest of justice to excuse the applicant's failure to timely file. In all other respects, there are insufficient bases to waive the statute of limitations for timely filing.

"YOU ARE AUTHORIZED UP TO 1 YEAR TO COMPLETE SELECTION OF A HOME AND COMPLETE TRAVEL IN CONNECTION WITH THIS ACTION." A memorandum, dated July 2013 [TAB I] shows her extension was approved.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
1. The evidence of record shows the U.S. Army Garrison, Fort Belvoir also published Orders 192-0020 on 10 July 2008 retiring effective 30 June 2008 and placing her on the retired list. However, these orders were later revoked by this issuing agency on 7 March 2011. Therefore, there is no basis for amending these orders.
2. The applicant's contention that she initially received her retirement orders from the Fort Belvoir Transition Center while serving in an active duty status, but her service time was incorrect is acknowledged and determined to have merit.
3. The evidence of record shows the applicant was issued Orders 142-0001, dated 21 May 2008, published by the U.S. Army Garrison, Fort Belvoir, VA, retiring her on 30 June 2008 and placing her on the retired list on the following date, in the rank of LTC. These retirement orders show:
a. Voluntary retirement: 20 years, 8 months, and 25 days;
b. Section 1405: 21 years, 5 months, and 21 days; and
c. Basic pay: 28 years, 1 month, and 27 days.
4. However, the evidence of record shows the applicant's service computation for retirement was corrected on 24 January 2011 to show in part:
a. Total active service: 21 years, 5 days, and 6 days;
b. Total service for percentage purposes (1405 Service): 22 years, 2 months, and 17 days.
5. The applicant contends that the HRC retirement orders (P-02-190041, dated 23 February 2011) and amendment orders (P-02-190041A01, dated 21 April 2011 and P-02-190041A02, dated 27 April 2011) should have never been published and the Fort Belvoir Transition Center personnel should have amended the original Fort Belvoir retirement orders (142-0001, dated 21 May 2008) to reflect the correct service are acknowledged.
6. The evidence of record shows HRC corrected the applicant's service computation on 24 January 2011 and subsequently issued new retirement orders which reflect the updated service computation. However, the retirement orders issued by Fort Belvoir on 21 May 2008 were used to retire the applicant for length of service and these orders were not revoked. Since her service computation was corrected after the effective date of the applicant's retirement, the orders should have been amended by the issuing agency, Fort Belvoir.
7. As a matter of equity, it would be appropriate to amend Orders 142-0001, dated 21 May 2008, published by the U.S. Army Garrison, Fort Belvoir, VA to show:
a. "Voluntary Retirement: 21 years, 05 months, 06 days" instead of "Voluntary Retirement: 20 years, 8 months, 25 days."
b. "Section 1405: 22 years, 02 months, and 17 days" instead of Section 1405: 21 years, 5 months, 21 days."
8. In addition, it would be appropriate to revoke the following orders issued by HRC:
* P-02-190041, dated 23 February 2011
* P-02-190041A01, dated 21 April 2011
* P-02-190041A02, dated 27 April 2011

BOARD DETERMINATION/RECOMMENDATION:
The Board determined that the evidence presented was sufficient to warrant a recommendation for relief. As a result, the Board recommends that the DD Form 214 of the individual concerned be corrected by:
a. amending U.S. Army Garrison, Fort Belvoir, VA, Orders 142-0001, dated 21 May 2008, to show:
(1) "Voluntary Retirement: 21 years, 05 months, 06 days" instead of
"Voluntary Retirement: 20 years, 8 months, 25 days; and
(2) "Section 1405: 22 years, 02 months, and 17 days" instead of Section
1405: 21 years, 5 months, 21 days."
b. revoking the following orders issued by HRC:
(1) P-02-190041, dated 23 February 2011;
