                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS

         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2003-01102
            INDEX CODE:  131.01, 107.00
            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

He be provided supplemental promotion consideration to  the  grade  of
chief master sergeant for promotion cycle 02-E9.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His Senior NCO promotion brief did not list the MSM, 1OLC when it  met
the 02E9 Central Evaluation Board.   He  contacted  the  AFPC  Records
Section on 14 Nov 2002, to ask why his promotion score notice did  not
list the decoration.   He  specifically  asked  if  the  citation  was
present in his records because he had faxed the citation to them on  5
September 2002.  He was told the citation was not in his  records  and
was  told  to  request  supplemental  promotion   consideration.    He
requested supplemental promotion consideration  but  his  request  was
denied by AFPC who informed him that the citation was in his records.

In support of his request, the applicant submitted  three  letters  of
support, several emails, a copy of his promotion score notice,  and  a
copy of his supplemental promotion consideration request package.

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

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving in the Regular  Air  Force  in  the
grade of Senior Master Sergeant.  Applicant  was  considered  and  not
selected for promotion to the grade of Chief Master  Sergeant  by  the
Senior Evaluation Board for the 02E9 promotion cycle,  which  convened
from 15-25 October 2002.  The applicant’s board score was 300.00.  His
total score was 619.00 and the score required for selection in his Air
Force Specialty Code (AFSC) was 638.25.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPWB recommends denial.   Although  the  citation  for  the  MSM
(1OLC) was not listed on the Senior NCO Evaluation Brief, it was filed
in the HQ USAF selection folder on 13 September 2002 and  reviewed  by
the evaluation board.

The applicant believes that because the citation was not listed on the
brief, the board did not see it.  He also states that when  he  called
the records section on 14 November 2002, he was told that it  was  not
filed in his selection folder.  The applicant’s selection  folder  was
reviewed, and revealed that the MSM (1OLC) was received and  filed  on
13 September 2002.  DPPPB records section date stamp on the bottom  of
the document when the document is  physically  filed  in  the  folder.
Also noted in the upper right-hand corner are  the  applicant’s  board
number and AFSC.

AFI 36-2502, Table 2.5 states, that supplemental consideration is  not
authorized if the citation or order was filed or if the decoration was
listed  on  the  brief  used  by  the  board,  was  developed  through
consultation with evaluation board members who determined that  either
update of  the  decoration  or  actual  citation  filed  in  the  SNCO
selection folder was sufficient  for  a  thorough  evaluation  of  the
record.

A review of the applicant’s selection folder  reflects  that  the  MSM
(1OLC) was filed in the record and reviewed by the evaluation board (a
decoration is not considered missing if the citation or order is filed
in the folder or if the decoration was listed on the brief used by the
board).

The evaluation board, which convened on 15 October 2002, reviewed  his
record and assigned the 300.00 board score with full knowledge of  the
decoration.  Consequently, no further consideration by  an  evaluation
board is either appropriate or authorized.

The DPPPWB complete evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the  applicant  on
30 May 03, 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 application was timely filed.

3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been  presented  to  demonstrate
the existence of an error or injustice warranting  consideration  by  a
supplemental board.  Although the citation for the MSM (1OLC)  was  not
listed on the Senior NCO Evaluation Brief, it was filed in the HQ  USAF
selection folder on 13 September 2002 and reviewed  by  the  evaluation
board.  We are not persuaded that the  inclusion  of  the  MSM  on  the
applicant's  Senior  NCO  Evaluation  Brief  would  have  significantly
affected his overall board score to subsequently result  in  selection.
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.

    However, the decoration was not updated in the system at the time initial selects were run as evidenced by the score notice dated 17 Mar 81. Also, the MSM (1OLC) was not considered by the promotion board. We noted applicant’s contention that the MSM, 1OLC, was not considered by the promotion board; however, since this award did not close out until 30 Jun 82, and was not awarded until 22 Jul 82, it did not meet the eligibility criteria for cycle 82S9.
