MEMORANDUM FOR THE CHIEF OF STAFF
Under the authority of Section 1552, Title 10, United States Code, Air Force Instruction
36-2603, and having assured compliance with the provisions of the above regulation, the
decision of the Air Force Board for Correction of Military Records is announced, and it is
directed that:
The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force relating to-
be corrected to show that the Senior Enlisted Performance Report, AF
period 28 September 1996 through 18 October 1997, be amended in
w
e
Block 1, Item 7, Period of Report, to reflect “28 September 1996 through 30 September 1997,
and Item 8, Number of Days Supervision, to reflect “102”.
h
It is further directed that his record, to include the Senior Enlisted Performance Report,
AF Form 91 1, rendered for the period 28 September 1996 through 30 September 1997, be
provided supplemental consideration for promotion to the grade of senior master sergeant for all
appropriate cycles beginning with cycle 98E8.
If AFPC discovers any adverse factors during or subsequent to supplemental
consideration that are separate and apart, and unrelated to the issues involved in this application,
that would have rendered the applicant ineligible for the promotion, such information will be
documented and presented to the board for a final determination on the individual’s qualification
for the promotion.
If supplemental promotion consideration results in the selection for promotion to the
higher grade, immediately after such promotion the records shall be corrected to show that he
was promoted to the higher grade on the date of rank established by the supplemental promotion
and that he is entitled to all pay, allowances, and benefits of such grade as of that date.

MEMORANDUM FOR AFBCMR
FROM: HQ AFPC/DPPPWB
550 C Street West, Ste 9
Randolph AFB TX 78 150-47 1 1
SUBJECT: Application for Correction of Military Records
Requested Action. The applicant is requesting the AFBCMR allow his records to meet the E8
Senior Master Supplemental Board. We will address the supplemental promotion consideration
issue should the request be approved.
Reason for Request. The applicant believes he w& done an injustice, because the reporting
officials were late with his Enlisted Performance Report (EPR) and the report was not filed in his
records in the time required, even after being notified by the 60 MSSQ and HQ AFPC of the
Board.
Facts. The EPR closing 27 Oct 97, was not filed in his record until after the applicant retired
and the close out date is after 30 Sep 97, the Promotion Eligibility Cutoff Date (PECD) for the
98E8 promotion cycle.
Discussion. We have no objections to the applicant being provided supplemental promotion
consideration to SMSgt for the 98E8 cycle. He could not be considered before his 1 Apr 98
retirement (Board convened 2 Feb 98) because he did not have a new Enlisted Performance
Report (EPR) since his consideration fiom the previous cycle. His most recent EPR covers a
period 28 Sep 96 through 18 Oct 97. It is an annual report with 120 days supervision. However,
because the EPR closes out after the Promotion Eligibility Cutoff Date (PECD), 30 Sep 97, for
the 98E8 cycle, it is ineligible for consideration. If the Board changes the close out date to 30
Sep 97, the number of days supervision to 102 days, and the reason for the report to read
Directed By HAF, it would be eligible for consideration. Should the Board chose to correct the
EPR and direct supplemental consideration for the 98E8 cycle, it could be provided by our next
scheduled board after receipt of AFBCMR Memorandum (this recommendation coordinated with
AFPCIDPPPEP, 14 Sep 98).
