                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBERS:  02-01492
            INDEX CODE 111.02
            COUNSEL:  None

            HEARING DESIRED:  No

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Section IX, Time-in-Grade Eligible, of the Enlisted Performance Report
(EPR) closing 24 Oct 01 reflect “No” rather than “Yes.”

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

The reasons the applicant believes the  records  to  be  in  error  or
unjust and the evidence submitted in support  of  the  appeal  are  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.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

HQ AFPC/DPPPEP notes the applicant contends she was not  time-in-grade
(TIG) eligible to receive senior rater indorsement based on  her  date
of rank (DOR).  However, because the EPR  closed  out  after  30  Sep,
eligibility is determined by the number of months TIG from  DOR  to  1
Mar XX (two years following the report closeout date, or 1 Mar  03  in
this case). Since the applicant’s DOR for master sergeant is 1 Oct 00,
subtract 1 Oct 00 from 1 Mar 03. If the remaining months  are  greater
than 20 (in this case it  is  29  months),  then  the  member  is  TIG
eligible for senior rater indorsement.  Denial is recommended.

A complete copy of the evaluation is at Exhibit C.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A complete copy of the Air  Force  evaluation  was  forwarded  to  the
applicant on 19 Jul 02 for review and comment within 30 days.   As  of
this date, this office has received no response.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

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

2.    The applicant was timely filed.

3.    Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate
the existence of error or injustice. After a thorough  review  of  the
evidence of record and applicant’s submission, we  are  not  persuaded
that Section IX of the 24 Oct 01 EPR should reflect she was  not  TIG-
eligible for a senior rater indorsement. Applicant’s  contentions  are
duly noted; however, we do  not  find  these  assertions,  in  and  by
themselves, sufficiently persuasive to override the rationale provided
by the Air Force. We therefore agree with the recommendations  of  the
Air Force and adopt the rationale  expressed  as  the  basis  for  our
decision that the applicant has failed to sustain his burden of having
suffered either an error or an injustice. In view  of  the  above  and
absent persuasive evidence to the  contrary,  we  find  no  compelling
basis to recommend granting the relief sought.

_________________________________________________________________

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.

_________________________________________________________________

    The applicant’s board score for the 99E8 board was 397.50. The applicant did provide a letter of recommendation from the commander supporting the upgrading of the EPR ratings and changes to his original comments. It is unreasonable to conclude the commander now, over 10 years later, has a better understanding of the applicant’s duty performance for that time period.
