AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial. The governing instruction states, 
in part, that the member’s application must clearly establish 
that an error or injustice by the Air Force caused the member’s 
lost leave. Additionally, AFI 36-3003, para 10.8.1, 10.8.5, 
states that normal Permanent Change of Station (PCS) moves, as 
well as attending school or course are not authorized for leave 
restoration. The applicant does not meet the eligibility 
criteria to restore his leave. 


 

The complete DPSIM 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 23 Dec 11 for review and comment within 30 days. As of this 
date, this office has received no response. 

 

______________________________________________________________ 

 

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 its 
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 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.
