# §865.2. Board responsibilities.

- (a) **Considering applications.** The Board considers all individual applications properly brought before it. In appropriate cases, it directs correction of military records to remove an error or injustice, or recommends such correction.
- (b) **Recommending action.** When an applicant alleges reprisal under the Military Whistleblowers Protection Act, [10 U.S.C. 1034](/usc/10/1034.md), the Board may recommend to the Secretary of the Air Force that disciplinary or administrative action be taken against those responsible for the reprisal.
- (c) **Deciding cases.** The Board normally decides cases on the evidence of the record. It is not an investigative body. However, the Board may, in its discretion, hold a hearing or call for additional evidence or opinions in any case.
