RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-01381 COUNSEL: NONE HEARING DESIRED: NO APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: His Active Duty Service Commitment (ADSC) be changed from 23 May 18 to 25 May 15. APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: On 11 Jun 12, after completing the Air Force Institute of Technology Civilian Institute Program (AFIT/CIP), he signed an AF Form 63, ADSC Acknowledgment Statement, whereby he agreed to a three-year ADSC. His ADSC should be carried out in accordance with AFI 36-2107, ADSC, table 1.1., rule 19, dated 25 Nov 09, which was in effect when he entered AFIT/CIP. He believes the AF Form 63, he received in 2013, which cites table 1.1., Rule 20, is unjust and should not be maintained in his records. His ADSC should not be extended based on a series of misinformation and incorrect procedures. In support of his request, the applicant provides a personal statement, copies of AF Forms 63, and an email communique’. The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A. STATEMENT OF FACTS: On 25 May 10, the applicant was appointed a second lieutenant in the Regular Air Force and ordered to extended active duty, effective 26 May 10. The applicant’s AF IMTs 475, Education/Training Reports reflects he successfully completed AFIT/CIP during the period 26 May 10 through 24 May 2012. AIR FORCE EVALUATION: AFPC/DPSIPV recommends denial indicating the applicant applied for and received a merit scholarship from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge, Massachusetts for which he successfully completed the program earning a master’s degree in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering. On 6 Jun 12, AFPC notified the applicant that he incurred a three year ADSC for completion of the AFIT program; however, there was no record of his acknowledgment on file or updated in the Military Personnel Data System (MilPDS). As a result, the applicant returned the AF Form 63, reflecting his agreement to serve the three year ADSC. The United States Air Force Academy (USAFA) Graduate Studies Program office offers a select group of cadets each year an opportunity to apply for scholarships. AFI 36-2107, table 1.2, rule 20, “airmen incur an ADSC of three times the length of the event for corporate, foundation, or education institution sponsored fellowship, scholarships, and grants. However, the notification, he was sent in 2012 was incorrect and it was not realized until 2013. Since he participated in a program under rule 20 of AFI 36-2107, an ADSC of three times the length of the event is applicable. On 30 Dec 13, the applicant was notified and an AF Form 63 was sent to him for acknowledgement. On 9 Jan 14, he acknowledged and agreed to serve three times the length of training. As a result, his record was corrected to reflect an ADSC expiration date of 23 May 18 for the scholarship program. If the Board’s decision is to grant the relief sought, the record will be adjusted to reflect an ADSC expiration date of 23 May 15. The complete DPSIPV evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit B. APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: He believes his corrected ADSC expiration date is miscalculated for the updated AF Form 63. His training report from the graduate program reflects a course length of 89 weeks and a completion date of 24 May 12. Three times the length of training results in 267 weeks (approximately 5.1 years). Wednesday, 12 Jul 17 is 267 weeks after 24 May 14. The calculated date of 23 May 18 is actually 313 weeks after 24 May 14. He agrees with DPSIPVs statement, “if the Boards decision is to grant the relief sought, the record will be adjusted to reflect an ADSC expiration date of 23 May 15.” However, if the Boards decision is to deny relief, he requests his record be adjusted to reflect the calculated date of 12 Jul 17, in accordance with three times the length of training. The applicant’s complete response, with attachment, is at Exhibit E. ADDITIONAL AIR FOR EVALUATION: After reviewing the applicant’s rebuttal documents, the Board requested the Board staff determine if the applicant’s ADSC was miscalculated. On 3 Jun 15, AFPC/DPSIPV confirmed the applicant’s ADSC was miscalculated and administratively corrected his records to reflect an ADSC of 23 Jun 17 versus 23 May 18. APPLICANT’S REVIEW OF ADDITIONAL AIR FOR EVALUATION By email dated 3 Jun 15, the applicant was advised that DPSIPV corrected his ADSC to reflect 23 Jun 17. On this same date, the applicant states he has no additional comments; however, he would like the Board to honor his original request and adjust his ADSC to reflect 23 May 15. The applicant’s complete response is at Exhibit G. 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. 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 the rationale expressed as the basis for our conclusion that relief beyond that already granted administratively is not warranted. Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting the requested relief. 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.
