STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The pertinent facts pertaining to this application are contained in the evaluation prepared by the appropriate office of the Air Force found at Exhibit C.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPAE recommends denial of the applicant’s request.  The applicant enlisted 14 Jan 98 which gave her a date of separation (DOS) of 13 Jan 02.  She then reenlisted on 14 Jan 02 for 4 years and 0 months.  On 17 Jan 02, HQ USAF released a new SRB list and announced that affected personnel should be briefed.  The window to get the SRB recomputed was if the member reenlisted between 2 Jan 02 and 16 Jan 02 and had a DOS of 17 Jan 02 or later.

The complete 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 (date) for review and comment within 30 days.  To 

date, a response has not been received.

________________________________________________________________

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 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 their rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice.  Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no compelling 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.
