RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-03341 COUNSEL: NONE HEARING DESIRED: NO APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: He be paid Dental Corps Incentive Pay effective 1 July 2013. APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: Due to an error in his records associated with his accession as a dental officer, his primary Air Force Specialty Code (AFSC), 47G (Dentist) was not correctly reflected. Instead, his records reflected the AFSC he held in the Air National Guard (ANG), 43H (Public Health Officer), which did not entitle him to Dental Corps Incentive pay. The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A. STATEMENT OF FACTS: The applicant entered the Air Force Reserve on 4 May 1995 and was discharged on 29 March 2000, and transferred to the ANG. On 23 June 2013, he entered the Regular Air Force in AFSC 47G in the grade of lieutenant colonel (O-5). According to the Consolidation of Special Pay Incentive Pay for General Dentists (47GX/47GXC) Dental Corps Contract Request dated 9 May 2014, the applicant signed a 4-year General Dentist Incentive pay contract effective 1 May 2014. AIR FORCE EVALUATION: AFPC/DPSIC indicates that no action is required and defers to AFPC/DPANF to address the applicant’s non receipt of incentive pay. A complete copy of the DPSIC evaluation is at Exhibit C. AFPC/DPNAF recommends approval. Upon his accession to active duty, the applicant’s records reflected the Public Health AFSC and not the correct Dentist AFSC. In May 2014, the applicant’s AFSC was corrected and he submitted his signed Dental Corps Incentive Pay contract. The applicant was not at fault that his record was not correct at the time he entered active duty. Therefore, providing the requested relief retroactive to 1 July 2013 is appropriate. A complete copy of the DPANF evaluation is at Exhibit D.
