In support of his appeal, the applicant provides a copy of his DD Form 214 for the period 1 October 2005 to 29 April 2009, Special Order TE-0283, and Special Order RQ-1330. The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A. _________________________________________________________________ STATEMENT OF FACTS: The applicant is a former member of the Air National Guard (ANG), who retired in the grade of lieutenant colonel (O-5). _________________________________________________________________ AIR FORCE EVALUATION: AFPC/DPSVT recommends denial. DPSVT states that based on the available evidence, they could not verify the applicant’s claim. On 1 September 2010, the applicant was contacted by their office via email requesting copies of orders and travel vouchers assigning him to the area of operations to support his request. On 8 September 2010, a letter was sent to the applicant, again requesting a copy of the orders and travel vouchers assigning him to the area of operations. As of the date of their evaluation, they have not received any supporting documentation from the applicant. The complete DPSVT 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 12 November 2010 for review and response within 30 days (Exhibit D). 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. If the applicant is able to provide any source documents, (i.e., travel vouchers, evaluation reports, letters of evaluation, decorations, witness statements, sworn affidavit, etc.) to verify his deployment, the Board would reconsider his request. However, 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. _________________________________________________________________ The following members of the Board considered AFBCMR Docket Number BC-2010-02995 in Executive Session on 28 April 2011, under the provisions of AFI 36-2603: The following documentary evidence was considered in connection with AFBCMR Docket Number BC-2010-02995: Exhibit A.
