RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:				DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2014-04912
		
 						COUNSEL:  NONE

						HEARING DESIRED:  NO



APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Medical Continuation Orders (MEDCON) be extended from 
26 September 2014 to 27 September 2014.  


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

Per ARPC, his MEDCON orders should have terminated on 
27 September 2014 to coincide with his retirement date.  Due to 
this discrepancy, his final DD Form 214, Certificate of Release 
or Discharge from Active Duty, will not reflect his disability 
retirement.  

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

According to his Military Personnel Appropriation (MPA) orders 
amendment dated 29 May 2014, the applicant was extended on 
active duty through 26 September 2014.  

Per Special Order, ACD-03475, dated 10 September 2014.  The 
applicant was retired effective 28 September 2014 with a 
70 percent disability rating.   


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPFA recommends approval.  The Air Reserve Component Case 
Management Division previously approved an extension of the 
applicant’s MEDCON orders with an end date of 27 September 2014.  
This extension coordination and approval took place on 
16 September 2014 and is reflected in the Command Man-Day 
Allocation System (CMAS).  A CMAS allocation message was 
generated on 16 September 2014 and the applicant’s unit should 
have used the message to extend the applicant’s order to reflect 
an end date of 27 September 2014. 

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPFA evaluation, with attachments, 
is at Exhibit B.   


APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 25 March 2015 for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit C).  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 timely filed.

3.  Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice.  Having 
carefully reviewed this application, 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 the applicant has been the victim of an error or 
injustice.  Therefore, we recommend the applicant's records be 
corrected as 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 he was 
not released from active duty on 26 September 2014 but was 
continued on active duty until 27 September 2014 for the purpose 
of medical continuation.
