RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS. IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2015-01246 COUNSEL: NONE HEARING DESIRED: NO APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: The Manpower MPA Man-Day Management System (M4S) be corrected to change the end date of his deployment from 13 Dec 14 to 14 Dec 14 and he receive the associated pay, points and benefits. APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: Due to a transportation delay, he returned to his home station one day later than originally planned. Because the additional day was not allocated in (M4S) his unit was unable to extend his orders. The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A. STATEMENT OF FACTS: According to the Military Personnel Data System (MilPDS), the applicant is currently serving as a member of the Air National Guard in the grade of senior airman. On 18 Apr 14, the applicant was ordered to active duty in support of OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOM for the period of 22 Apr 14 through 9 Nov 14. According to his DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or discharge from Active Duty, he was demobilized on 13 Dec 14. He was credited with eight months and six days of active service. The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are contained in the memorandum prepared by the Air Force office of primary responsibility (OPR), which is attached at Exhibit C. AIR FORCE EVALUATION: NGB/A1PR recommends denial indicating the applicant was on orders long enough to take all 14 days of Post-Deployment Stand Down Time (PDSDT), accrued leave plus 1 additional day. One purpose of a mobilization message is to provide a window of time during which members are ordered to service in support of the mobilization. Based on specific mobilization requirements, the actual dates of the mobilization will fall within the window of the mobilization message. Once the days are allocated, the order can be published. The M4S allocation and order will not automatically be for the entire time on the mobilization message, as it is based on the requirements for each person/position. According to the applicant’s travel voucher, on 10 Nov 14, he arrived at his residence. According to the ACC Post-Deployment Downtime Guidance Memorandum, the applicant is entitled to 14 days of PDSDT, which began on 11 Nov 14 and ended on 24 Nov 14. Because the applicant is entitled to PDSDT, he is not authorized two days of in-processing. According to AFI 36-3003, Military Leave Program, paragraph 4.4, the applicant accrued 18 days of leave during the period of active duty service, which began on 25 Nov 14 through 12 Dec 14. Leave accrual is calculated using the order start date to determine when the applicant entered active service and the date he arrived at his residence to determine when the applicant separates from active service. According to AFI 36-2619, Military Personnel Appropriation Manday Program, paragraph 3.3.2,” Leave is calculated based on the mission start and end date. It is not earned during authorized downtime.” The mission end date in this case is the date the applicant arrived at his residence as filed on his travel voucher. The applicant’s last day on orders should have been 12 Dec 14, the last day he was on leave. His original order end date was 13 Dec 14 which was 1 day longer he should have been on orders, which allowed him to use all 14 days of PDSDT and leave accrued.
