APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
He receive promotion consideration by a Special Selection Board (SSB)
for the calendar year (CY) 2001B Lieutenant Colonel Central Selection

_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was directed by his senior rater to draft his own Promotion
Recommendation Form (PRF), which was subsequently submitted to the
CY01B lieutenant colonel CSB with minimal changes. He believes this
was in violation of AFI 36-2406 and this put him at an unfair
disadvantage before the Board.
Applicant's complete submission, with attachments, is attached at
Exhibit A.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
HQ AFPC/DPPPE states the applicant has not provided any evidence as to
what actions he took to inform his senior rater of a possible
violation of the AFI. Nor has he provided any evidence of what
actions he took to have his PRF changed prior to the convening of the
board. Furthermore, a PRF is considered a working copy until the
start of the board and the senior rater has the flexibility to make
changes to the PRF. The applicant has not provided any documentation
from his senior rater or from the management level review board
president (MRLB) in support of his request for special selection board
consideration, nor has he provided a new PRF for consideration by the
board. Based on the evidence provided, AFPC/DPPE recommends the
applicant’s request be denied.
A copy of the Air Force evaluation is attached at Exhibit C.
HQ AFPC/DPPPO, reviewed this application and concurs with the findings
of DPPPE and does not support promotion consideration. They recommend
denying the applicant’s request.
A copy of the Air Force evaluation is attached at Exhibit D.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR STAFF EVALUATION:
Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the applicant on
3 October 2003, for review and response. 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 to warrant promotion consideration
by a Special Selection Board (SSB). After a thorough review of the
evidence of record and the applicant’s submission, the Board agrees
with the opinions and recommendations of the Air Force and adopts
their rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has
not been the victim of an error or injustice. Although it appears
that a violation of the AFI may have occurred, the applicant has not
provided nor offered any explanation of what actions he took to advise
his senior rated of this violation. The July 2001, e-mail the
applicant submitted from a major in his unit requesting a draft PRF be
provided also advised him if there was a problem with this request the
applicant should contact him. The applicant has not provided any
evidence showing he contacted the major and discussed this issue with
him. Furthermore, he has not provide any evidence from the senior
rater stating that the PRF was in error. The applicant has not
provided any supporting documentation from his senior rater or the
MLRB president as policy requires. Nor, has the applicant provided a
replacement for the contested PRF. 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 RECOMMENDS 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, Air Force policy does not allow for decorations with close out dates or approval dates after the convening of the board to be filed in a member’s record. In addition, because of the closeout date of his MSM (2OLC) (7 August 2003), there is no basis to favorably consider his request for consideration of this award by the CY02B and CY03A lieutenant colonel selection boards. Finally, since there is no indication in the available evidence that the applicant’s record of performance...
