LOR Rebuttal
Failure to Perform On-Call Duties

24 March 2013

MEMORANDUM FOR (UNIT)

FROM: Oopsi Daisy, A1C, USAF, (Unit)

SUBJECT: Rebuttal to Letter of Reprimand

This statement concerns the LOR I received on 21 March 2013. I respectfully submit the following for your consideration.

On 21 March 2013, I was issued an LOR by SSgt "They Read It". The following is my account of the occurrences as they happened and my thought process:

I received this LOR on 21 March 2013 for having failed to properly perform the duties of an on-call (job title) on 14-15 March 2013. I understand that there is zero excuse for having done this, and do not wish to attempt to make any for myself. I failed to properly perform my duties, and completely understand that there must be consequences for such actions.

I am a new airman, new to the military life. I am attempting to make sense of the life I have chosen to join, and I simply stumbled in doing so. I am going to take this as a learning experience, and not repeat the mistake. I know that my job as a (job title) is extremely important, and that people can die if I am not available to do my job when I am needed. I now am consciously aware of the need to keep the on call phone at my side at all times when I am on call, and the things that I can and cannot do when I am on call. I apologize for not keeping that in mind when I made this mistake, and I am only grateful that no one was hurt. I will take every precaution to make sure that this never happens again while I am on call. I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to correct my mistake, and I will not let that opportunity go to waste.

With the Utmost Respect,
