RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 02-01381
INDEX CODE 107.00 131.01
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His record, to include the Meritorious Service Medal, First Oak Leaf
Cluster (MSM, 1 OLC), be considered for promotion by a Special Selection
Board (SSB) for the Calendar Year 2001B Central Lieutenant Colonel
Selection Board.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Despite his several attempts to have the MSM, 1 OLC, included in his
records prior to the CY01B board convening, he was considered by the board
without the decoration reflected in his record.
The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 31 July 2001, the applicant was awarded the MSM, 1 OLC, for meritorious
service during the period 20 November 1997 to 1 August 2001.
The applicant was considered for promotion and not selected by the Calendar
Years 2000A (CY00A) and 2001B (CY01B) Central Lieutenant Colonel Selection
Boards that convened on 28 November 2000 and 5 November 2001, respectively.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPPO recommends the application be denied and states, in part, that
although the decoration was not reflected on the applicant’s Officer
Selection Brief (OSB), his Officer Selection Record (OSR) did contain a
copy of the MSM, 1 OLC, citation which is date stamped “5 October 2001.”
Additionally, a discrepancy letter in his record reflects the MSM, 1 OLC,
was awarded and filed, but not updated in the military personnel data
system. Since the board members had a copy of the citation to review, SSB
consideration is not supported.
The AFPC/DPPPO 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 9 July
2002 for review and comment within 30 days. As of this date, no response
has been received by this office.
_________________________________________________________________
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. The applicant contends that despite his
several attempts to have the MSM, 1 OLC, included in his records prior to
the CY01B board convening, he was considered by the board without the
decoration reflected in his record. The Air Force has stated that although
the decoration was not reflected on the applicant’s Officer Selection Brief
(OSB), his Officer Selection Record (OSR) did contain a copy of the MSM, 1
OLC, citation which is date stamped “5 October 2001.” Additionally, a
discrepancy letter in his record reflects the MSM, 1 OLC, was awarded and
filed, but not updated in the military personnel data system. Therefore,
since the selection board members had a copy of the citation to review, we
find no basis upone which to recommend favorable action on the applicant’s
request.
_________________________________________________________________
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.

He believes the absence of this information prejudiced his consideration for promotion to the grade of colonel. He states the Air Force awarded him two DFC (Basic) awards in 1992 and later claimed that one of the DFCs had not been awarded until after his colonel selection board. Although the panel has recommended the applicant’s records, to include two Air Medals (AMs) and a Meritorious Service Medal (MSM), be considered by an SSB for the CY01B board, they do not recommend the DFC, 1 OLC,...

As a result, the OPR and MSM 2OLC were not in her OSR when the CY01B board convened.

_________________________________________________________________ AIR FORCE EVALUATION: AFPC/DPPPO states that the purpose of having a citation included in the record is not to allow board members to review the comments on the citation, although they may do so if they are so inclined. Although the citation was not present in his OSR for the board’s review, the selection board had his entire officer selection record at their disposal, including the OSB reflecting the DMSM, during promotion...

Although the citation was not present in his OSR for the board’s review, the selection board had his entire officer selection record at their disposal, including the OSB reflecting the DMSM 1OLC, during promotion consideration. Because a very significant citation was missing, the selection board did not have his entire OSR. We also note that the central boards evaluate the entire officer record and it is highly unlikely the missing DMSM, 1OLC citation from applicant's Officer Selection...
