FINDINGS:

1.  The applicant has exhausted or the Board has waived the requirement for exhaustion of all administrative remedies afforded by existing law or regulations.

2.  The applicant requests early retirement due to the realignment of the Selective Service system.

3.  The applicant states he tried to resolve this through his assignment officers, the transition benefits office and two congressmen and received no response.

4.  The applicant’s military records show that he was appointed a second lieutenant in the U. S. Army Reserve on 15 May 1977.  He was released from active duty in July 1985 and continued in the Active Reserve.  

5.  While he was attached to the Selective Service System (SSS) as an Individual Mobilization Augmentee (IMA), that agency held a selective retention board in November 1991 in an effort to realign their Reserve officer force to reflect validated mobilization manpower requirements.  The applicant was not among those officers selected to remain with the SSS as a fully paid reservist.  He was released from attachment to the SSS, and any other Army Reserve status, on 18 March 1993 in the grade of Major.  He had completed 15 qualifying years for retirement.
