                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  02-01377

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED: NO

___________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His military records be reviewed by the Secretary of the Air  Force
(SAF) and Secretary of Defense (SecDef) for  consideration  of  the
award of the Joint Specialty Officer (JSO) designation.

___________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

In September 2001, the Air Force convened a JSO selection board  in
which his records were not submitted  for  consideration.   He  had
completed a full  joint  duty  assignment  at  Headquarters  United
States European Command.  He was in a joint billet, with more  that
36 months  of  uninterrupted  service  and  he  had  completed  the
prescribed professional military education (PME) and joint PME.  It
is his desire to at least be considered.  He was told by an  action
officer at the Colonel’s Group that he  probably  would  have  been
selected for JSO had his records been  submitted  to  SAF.   He  is
currently assigned in a  JSO  Critical  billet  at  Defense  Threat
Reduction Agency (DTRA).

In support of his appeal,  applicant  submitted  a  senior  officer
personnel brief and a certificate  of  completion  from  the  Armed
Forces Staff College.

Applicant’s complete submission 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 at Exhibit C.

___________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

The  Air  Force  Senior  Leader  Management  Office  reviewed  this
application and recommended the  applicant  be  informed  that  his
record was not missed at the September 2001 Joint Specialty Officer
(JSO) Board.  He was not eligible for board consideration, although
this does not prevent him from being eligible to  meet  future  JSO
Boards.  Based on the JSO inventory and projected requirements, the
Air Force Colonel  Matters  Office  (AFCMO),  in  conjunction  with
AFPC’s  Joint  Management  Office   (JMO),   only   considered   32
colonels/colonel selects at the 2001  JSO  board.   The  Air  Force
Specialty Codes (AFSCs) considered were 14N and 33S; the  applicant
was/is a 21L.  In addition, they have no record of  a  conversation
between the applicant and an  AO  stating  the  applicant  probably
would have been selected had his record been submitted.

A complete copy of the evaluation is at Exhibit C.

___________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

Applicant addressed each of the  findings  of  the  evaluation  and
explained  why  his  record  still  deserves  to  be  reviewed  and
considered by the JSO Board, effective with the previous board.  He
restated his initial explanations as to the telephone  conversation
with AFCMO in more detail.

Secondly, it is his understanding the Air Force only submitted  14N
and 32S AFSCs for consideration and  that  he  was  not  considered
since he is in AFSC 21L and there are a sufficient  number  in  the
JSO roster.  He says apparently  the  AFCMO  position  was  not  to
consider other AFSCs based on projected needs rather than on a case-
by-case  examination  of  skills.   However,  that  may  not   have
necessarily been a totally accurate position to take.   As  in  his
case, his  experience  cuts  across  multiple  AFSCs  and  critical
skills.

Lastly, he was placed in a position which was reflected at the time
of assignment as a JSO critical billet.  He was told by AFCMO  that
a JCS waiver was required since his  billet  was  coded  as  a  JSO
position.  He says a waiver would not have been required if he  was
considered and selected by the board.

Additionally, he meets the requirement for JSO and  based  on  AFPC
and AFCMO web page, there is no quota or selection rate for JSO.

Applicant’s complete response is attached 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.  Insufficient  relevant   evidence   has   been   presented   to
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice.  We took notice of
the applicant's complete submission in judging the  merits  of  the
case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of  the
Air  Force  office  of  primary  responsibility  and  adopt   their
rationale as the basis for our conclusion that  the  applicant  has
not been the victim of an error or injustice.   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 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.

    A health professions officer nominated for PV promotion must complete their PME by the PRF submission date, 45 days before the board convenes. We note that apparently in accordance with the established governing policy, the applicant’s nomination for a PV promotion was returned because she had not completed the appropriate level of professional military education (PME) at the time the PRF was submitted. In this respect, the Board notes that a health professions officer nominated for PV...
