                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  02-01182
            INDEX NUMBER:  131.00
      XXXXXXXXXXXXX    COUNSEL:  None

      XXX-XX-XXXX      HEARING DESIRED:  No

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

He be considered for promotion  to  lieutenant  colonel  by  special
selection board (SSB) for the CY01B (5 Nov  01)  Central  Lieutenant
Colonel Selection Board and permitted to write a letter to the Board
president addressing information not available to his primary board.

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

Due to timing of  the  Logistics  Squadron  Commander’s  Board,  the
events of 11 Sep 01, and erroneous advice from  his  commander,  the
CY01B lieutenant colonel selection board was not aware that  he  was
on the Logistics Squadron Commander’s list.   His  commander  advice
was to not send a letter to the board until he had been hired  as  a
commander.  He was notified of his selection as a squadron commander
on 4 Dec 01.  Had his selection as a commander and  the  release  of
the list been timely, he would have been able to send  a  letter  to
the board stating that he had been  selected  as  a  commander.   He
believes that because the board did not know  of  his  selection  to
command, he did not receive  full  consideration  for  promotion  to
lieutenant colonel.  In support of his appeal, applicant  submits  a
letter of support from his former commander.

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

 ________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is presently serving on active duty in  the  grade  of
major.  His Total Active Federal Military Service Date (TAFMSD)   14
Oct 86.  A review of the applicant’s last  ten  Officer  Performance
Reports (OPRs) indicates overall ratings of “meets standards.”   The
applicant was considered and nonselected for promotion to lieutenant
colonel by the CY01B Central Lieutenant Colonel Selection Board.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPPO recommends denial of the applicant’s  request.   Although
an explanation of the applicant’s selection as a squadron  commander
was not present in his officer selection record, the selection board
had  his  entire   officer   selection   record   during   promotion
consideration.  They are not  convinced  that  the  absence  of  the
letter to the board  explaining  his  squadron  commander  candidacy
caused his promotion nonselection.

The complete evaluation is at Exhibit C.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on
21 Jun 02 for review  and  comment  within  30  days.   To  date,  a
response has not been received.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing  law
or regulations.

2.  The application was timely filed.

3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented  to  demonstrate
the existence of error or injustice.   After  reviewing  the  complete
evidence of  record,  we  were  not  persuaded  that  the  applicant’s
promotion  opportunity  was  negatively  impacted  by  the   promotion
selection board not being aware of his selection as  a  candidate  for
squadron commander.  Notwithstanding the timing of his board  and  the
advice given by  his  commander,  the  applicant  was  considered  for
promotion based on his complete record of  performance.   It  was  the
applicant’s decision whether or not to write a letter to the promotion
board.  He sought the advice of his commander and then decided not  to
submit a letter.   Therefore,  in  the  absence  of  evidence  to  the
contrary, we find no compelling basis to recommend granting the relief
sought in this application.

_______________________________________________________________

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.

    In support of his request, applicant provided his MSM citation and special order GB-18. DPPPO states that although the period of award for the decoration was through 17 Jul 01, the orders for the decoration were not published until 9 Nov 01. Thus, it is our opinion that the MSM was not a matter of record at the time the selection board convened and accordingly, it was not required to be included in his selection record.
