 AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-04639 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His nomination package for position vacancy be reviewed for 
eligibility for the Calendar Year 2010 (CY10) Line and Health 
Professions Lieutenant Colonel Position Vacancy (PV) Promotion 
Board. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

His promotion recommendation form (PRF) nomination package was 
supposed to be included with the other wing PRFs, but due to a 
clerical error, his package was not included. He is assigned to 
a lieutenant colonel billet at his unit, which is a requirement 
for nomination. 

 

In support of his appeal, the applicant provides a package from 
his unit supporting his claim. 

 

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

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The relevant facts pertaining to this application, extracted 
from the applicant’s military records, are contained in the 
letter prepared by the appropriate office of the Air Force.

THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

ARPC/DPB recommends denial, stating, in part, the applicant did 
not provide a completed PRF for the CY10 Line and Health 
Professions Lieutenant Colonel Position Vacancy (PV) Promotion 
Board, recommending him for PV. One of the primary eligibility 
requirements is that they must be recommended by their Senior 
Rater on a PRF. The applicant has not provided the PRF he 
states his Senior Rater signed for the 14 Jun 10 PV Board. 

 


The complete AFPC/DPB evaluation is at Exhibit C. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

In his response to the Air Force evaluation, the applicant 
provides the PRF from his senior rater for the CY10 board. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit E. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

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 error or injustice warranting 
corrective action. We took notice of the applicant’s complete 
submission in judging the merits of the case. While we note the 
recommendation of the Air Force Reserve office of primary 
responsibility, in considering their assessment of the 
application, and based on the documentation provided by the 
applicant’s rating chain, including the AF Form 709, Promotion 
Recommendation Form (PRF), we believe it was their intent to 
have the nomination package submitted prior to the convening 
date of the board, nominating him for consideration by the 
CY10 Line and Health Professions Lieutenant Colonel Position 
Vacancy (PV) Promotion Board. In view of this, and given the 
rating chain’s intent to have the PRF as a matter of record 
before the promotion board, we recommend the applicant’s record 
be corrected to the extent indicated below. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT: 

 

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air 
Force relating to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that the 
AF Form 709, Promotion Recommendation Form (PRF), rendered for 
the Calendar Year 2010 (CY10) Line and Health Professions 
Lieutenant Colonel Position Vacancy (PV) Promotion Board, was 
reaccomplished, printed, and physically signed by the senior 
rater in Section X, and that the PRF was received prior to the 
board convening date of 14 June 2010. 

 

It is further recommended, if he is otherwise eligible for 
promotion, that he be considered for promotion to the grade of 
lieutenant colonel (O-5) as a position vacancy candidate by a 
Special Board, under the provisions of 10 USC 1558, for the 


Calendar Year 2010 (CY10) Line and Health Professions Lieutenant 
Colonel Position Vacancy (PV) Promotion Board and any subsequent 
boards for which the above PRF was not a matter of record.
