                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  02-02585

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His date of rank (DOR) to TSgt (E-6) be corrected from 1 July 2002  to
1 March 2002.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

The delay for promotion was  unjust/in  error  due  to  administrative
problems in the 349th Military Personnel Flight (MPF)  when  switching
personnel  management  software  and  squadron  management   did   not
accomplish appropriate follow up actions as  well.   In  order  to  be
promoted, an award of a 7 skill level was required.  All training  was
accomplished and a 7 skill level was  awarded  on  10  December  2001.
Supporting  paperwork  was  dated  5  January  2002  but   appropriate
personnel tracking records were not updated to allow automated systems
to perform the proper functions.  Not until  the  MPF  supervisor  was
questioned did appropriate corrective actions take place.

In  support  of  his  appeal,  the  applicant  submits   a   copy   of
Classification/On-the-Job  Training   actions,   and   the   promotion
eligibility rosters.

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

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is presently serving in the Air  Force  Reserve  in  the
grade of TSgt (E-6).  He  was  promoted  to  the  grade  of  Technical
Sergeant effective and with a date of rank of 1 July 2002

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFRC/DPMB stated after thoroughly reviewing the member’s request, they
were  unable  to  recommend  approval  of  the  applicant’s   request.
Actions of this type require the member’s  unit  commander’s  approval
and this was not  provided  in  the  applicant’s  request.   DPMB  has
contacted the member at his residence  on                18  September
2002, and the member’s servicing MPF for this information, as of  this
date the documentation has not been provided.

AFRC/DPMB evaluation is attached at Exhibit C.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to  applicant  on  25
October 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 an error or injustice. After a thorough review of the
evidence of record and applicant’s submission, we  are  not  persuaded
that the applicant’s date of rank  of  technical  sergeant  should  be
corrected to reflect 1 March 2002. The Board noted that the  applicant
has failed to provide the necessary documents requested by  AFRC/DPMB,
and other than his own assertions, we have seen no evidence that would
lead us to believe his records should be corrected.  Therefore, in the
absence of such evidence, 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 a 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 following members of the Board considered Docket  Number  02-02585
