IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-00796 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His DD Form 4, Enlistment/Reenlistment Document – Armed Forces of 
the United States, dated 8 Oct 10, be changed to reflect 2 years, 
11 months, and 5 days, rather than 6 years. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He transferred to the Florida Air National Guard (FL ANG) from 
the Connecticut Air National Guard (CT ANG) with a service 
obligation. Due to an administrative oversight, the new unit 
enlisted him for 6 years instead of completing his contract. He 
must now fulfill the service obligation incurred and participate 
satisfactorily under his new agreement 

 

In support of his request, the applicant provides copies of his 
8 Oct 10 and 13 Sep 07 enlistment contracts. 

 

The applicant's complete submission, with attachments, is at 
Exhibit A.

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

On 13 Sep 07, the applicant enlisted in the CT ANG for a period 
of 6 years. 

 

The applicant transferred to the FL ANG, and on 8 Oct 10, he 
signed/executed a DD Form 4 with the FL ANG effective on that 
date for a term of 6 years.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

NGB/A1PS recommends denial as recommended to them by the Subject 
Matter Expert (SME), NGB/A1POE. According to the advisory 
prepared by the SME, the applicant did not provide sufficient 
evidence to make a determination on his case. The applicant 
provides no reason why he believes this was an “administrative 
oversight” and does not include any statements from the 
recruiting staff or Force Support Squadron (FSS) stating that 
they believe there was an error. Without any actual reasoning 


the SME cannot determine that he had not in fact requested the 6 
year enlistment. 

 

The complete A1PS evaluation, with attachment is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

On 13 May 11, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to 
the applicant for review and comment within 30 days. To date, a 
response has not been received (Exhibit D). 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

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.
