RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 98-02159
INDEX CODE: 100.07
APPLICANT COUNSEL: None
HEARING DESIRED: No
___________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her record be corrected to show she successfully completed Air War
College (AWC) in June 1998.
___________________________________________________________________
RESUME OF THE CASE:
A similar request for relief was considered and denied by the Board on 23
March 1999 (see AFBCMR 98-02159, with Exhibits A through G).
___________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
In spite of the fact that the Board found the existence of an injustice
in her case, the Board supported the recommendation in the AWC advisory
opinion. She believes that the Board’s acceptance of the AWC’s
compromise constitutes another injustice in that she is having to take a
new course, albeit only one volume, despite a failure on the part of the
AWC.
The applicant’s submission and a supportive statement by a major air
command Director of Personnel are at Exhibit H.
___________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
After reviewing the applicant’s most recent submission and the additional
information provided in support of the appeal, we are not persuaded that
a revision in our earlier decision in this case is warranted. The
applicant believes that a “failure” on the part of the AWC provides a
sufficient basis to grant her request. The applicant is entitled to her
opinion but we do not agree. In our earlier findings, we stated that any
injustice in the applicant’s case was rectified by the AWC’s offer for
the applicant to retake Volume 3 of the current edition of the AWC, the
section which she failed, without requiring the applicant to reenroll and
take all 3 volumes again. We remain firm in our opinion that this is the
appropriate course of action in this case. Since there is available to
the applicant a course of action to complete AWC through her own academic
endeavors, we are not inclined to intervene in this process and award her
credit for the successful completion of a course where the final outcome
was, at the time of the alleged injustices, not assured. Accordingly, in
view of the above, our earlier decision in this matter is affirmed.
___________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not demonstrate
the existence of probable material error or injustice; that the
application was denied without a personal appearance; and that the
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of newly
discovered relevant evidence not considered with this application.
