RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2013-00797 COUNSEL: NONE HEARING DESIRED: NO ________________________________________________________________ APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 1. Her Retention/Retirement (R/R) Anniversary Date be changed from 29 October 1979 to 21 September 1979 to allow two Inactive Duty Training (IDT) participation points to be moved from her anniversary year ending (AYE) 29 October 1979 to her AYE 29 October 1980. 2. She be credited with her Navy Reserve participation points accrued in AYE 28 October 1981. ________________________________________________________________ APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: This transfer of points will allow her a total of 50 points for AYE 29 October 1980 and a satisfactory year of service towards retirement. Her anniversary date should coincide with her reenlistment date. In support of her appeal, the applicant provides copies of her Air National Guard/United States Air Force Reserve (ANG/USAFR) Point Credit Summary, Report on Individual Personnel, and Statement of Service for Naval Reserve Retirement. The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A. ________________________________________________________________ STATEMENT OF FACTS: ARPC/DPTS recommends denial. DPTS states the requested remedy is contrary to Title 10, United States Code (USC), Section 12732. The applicant served continuously from the time she entered active status after a civilian break-in-service on 29 October 1975 through her 20 September 1981 discharge. The first day in active status set the applicant’s 29 October anniversary date. Moreover, her 21 September 1979 reenlistment did not lead to or stem from a break-in-service, and consequently did not affect her anniversary date. Once set, the anniversary date would not change unless the Reserve member changed components, transitioned from inactive to active status or returned to active status from a civilian break-in-service. The applicant’s points and years of satisfactory service are correctly reflected in her ANG/USAFR Point Credit Summary. In regard to the applicant’s request concerning her Navy Reserve participation points, they recommend she petition the United States Navy. The complete DPTS evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit B. ________________________________________________________________ APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: On 1 April 2013, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D).

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.
