RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-04385 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: YES 

 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His records be corrected to show he was enrolled in the Enlisted 
College Loan Repayment Program (ECLRP), effective 15 Aug 10. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

Section E of the Air Force form 3008, Supplement to Enlistment 
Agreement, was mistakenly annotated to show he had been briefed 
on the ECLRP program and had elected not to participate, thereby 
waiving his rights to any further participation consideration. 

 

He was not briefed on the program and his recruiter and liaison 
were aware that participation in the ECLRP was the main reason 
for his enlistment. The section was initialed as a result of 
misunderstanding or in haste. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in 
the grade of senior airman (E-4). 

 

The applicant signed the Air Force form 3007, Guaranteed 
Training Enlistment Agreement, on 10 Nov 09, which included a 
statement in Section E of the form which indicates, “I have been 
briefed on the College Loan Repayment Program (CLRP) and either 
do not meet the program requirements, or elect not to 
participate. I understand my initial enlistment is the only 
opportunity to enroll in the CLRP and I permanently waive my 
CLRP enrollment option.” 

 

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are 
contained in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of 
the Air Force, which is attached at Exhibit C. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 


AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIT recommends denial. The ECLRP is a recruitment 
incentive open to eligible first-time enlistees having 
federally-insured student loans. 

 

The applicant’s AF Form 3008 was initialed and signed that he 
understood he was waiving his right to enrollment in the ECLRP. 
He has not provided further documentation to support a reversal 
of his enrollment status nor has he provided evidence to 
indicate he was a victim of a government error or injustice. 

 

DSIT’s 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 6 Jan 12 for review and comment within 30 days. As 
of this date, no response has been received by this office. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

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 an error or injustice. After 
careful consideration of applicant's request and the available 
evidence of record, we find insufficient evidence of error or 
injustice to warrant corrective action. The facts and opinions 
stated in the advisory opinion appear to be based on the 
evidence of record and have not been adequately rebutted by the 
applicant. Absent persuasive evidence the applicant was denied 
rights to which he was entitled, appropriate regulations were 
not followed, or appropriate standards were not applied, we find 
no basis to disturb the existing record. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT: 

 

The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; the 
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the 
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of 
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this 
application.
