updated as active duty retirement credit days for the period

She should receive active duty/retirement credit for all her 
active duty and Inactive Duty Training (IDT) days she completed 
while assigned as an IMA. She held the pay grade of O3E the last 
six years of her military career. She never received an official 
copy of her DD Form 214.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFRC/A1K recommends disapproval of the portion of the applicant’s 
request regarding receiving credit for man and IDT days, while 
assigned as an IMA. The applicant has not provided any 
supporting documentation, such as Military or Reserve Personnel 
Appropriation orders or IDT training documentation to 
substantiate her claim. Without official documentation it cannot 
be determined if any points should be credited towards her 


retirement. Notwithstanding the above, AFRC/A1K has confirmed 
the applicant did hold the pay grade of O3E/Captain from 
11 Oct 02 through 30 Sep 10. As for her request for a copy of 
her DD Form 214, AFRC/A1K forwarded a copy of the requested 
document to the applicant. 

 

A complete copy of the AFRC/A1K 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 25 Jun 12, for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D). 
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 not timely filed; however, it is in the 
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file. 

 

3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice warranting 
correction of the applicant’s record to credit her with 
additional active and inactive service. Other than her own 
uncorroborated assertions, the applicant has not provided any 
evidence that would indicate that she was not appropriately 
credited for the service she performed while she served in the 
individual mobilization augmentee (IMA) program. Therefore, in 
the absence of such evidence, we find no basis to recommend 
granting this aspect of the applicant’s request. Notwithstanding 
the above, sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice warranting a 
change in the applicant’s pay grade. In this respect, we note 
the comments of the Air Force office of primary responsibility 
indicating the applicant held the noted pay grade from 11 Oct 02 
through 30 Sep 10. Therefore, we recommend the applicant’s 
records be corrected to the extent indicated below. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT: 

 

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force 
relating to the APPLICANT be corrected to show that she held the 
pay grade of O3E from 11 Oct 02 through 30 Sep 10.
