RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2005-02826
            INDEX CODE:  111.05

      XXXXXXX    COUNSEL:  NONE

      XXXXXXX    HEARING DESIRED:  YES

MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE:  17 APR 2007

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

The Enlisted Performance Report (EPR) closing out on  1  September  2002  be
declared void and removed from her records.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

The report contains a wrong Duty Air Force Specialty Code (DAFSC).  She  was
discriminated against because she worked in  a  career  field  dominated  by
men.  Her reporting official was changed twice within a two-month period  in
order to coerce an officer to sign the  document.   The  reporting  official
was forced into writing the low rating by the commander, based on a  request
from a chief master sergeant who planned to accuse  the  reporting  official
of being a lesbian in order to get her discharged.

Applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air  Force  in  the  grade  of  airman
basic for a term of 4 years.  She was progressively promoted  to  the  grade
of master sergeant and retired in that  grade  after  serving  18  years  of
active duty service.











Her EPR profile reflects the following:

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPP recommends changing the DAFSC  but  denial  to  voiding  the  EPR.
DPPP indicated the applicant failed to  provide  any  supporting  documents.
Her surrounding reports show an AFSC of 45722.   The  applicant  states  she
was in a career field that she was not trained or assigned to.  It was  only
assigned to her to give her a lower rating.  She failed to provide proof  of
this information.

According to DPPP, based on the surrounding EPRs showing a DAFSC  of  45772,
the DAFSC should be changed to read “45772”.  However, the  DAFSC  does  not
invalidate  the  report.   The   incorrect   DAFSC   does   not   mean   the
accomplishments  on  the  report  were  not  accurately  documented  by  the
evaluators.   Therefore,  the  report  is  an  accurate  assessment  of  the
member’s performance.

The complete 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  6  Jan
06, 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 an injustice.  The  applicant  contends  the  DAFSC
was assigned to her in an effort to give her a  lower  rating  on  her  EPR.
However, after thoroughly reviewing the  evidence  of  record,  we  are  not
persuaded that the contested report should  be  declared  void  and  removed
from her records.  We note the applicant  has  not  submitted  any  evidence
showing the report was not an accurate assessment of her accomplishments  as
rendered.  Therefore, we agree with the opinion and  recommendation  of  the
office of primary responsibility and adopt its rationale as  the  basis  for
our conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim  of  an  error  or
injustice.  In  the  absence  of  evidence  to  the  contrary,  we  find  no
compelling basis to recommend granting the relief sought.

4.    Notwithstanding  the  aforementioned,  we  note  that  the  office  of
primary responsibility recommended the contested EPR be changed  to  reflect
a DAFSC of 45772, based on the surrounding EPRs showing a  DAFSC  of  45772.
We agree with the office  of  primary  responsibility  in  this  matter  and
believe  that  the  DAFSC  on  the  contested  EPR  should   be   corrected.
Accordingly, we recommend that  her  records  be  corrected  to  the  extent
indicated below.

5.    The applicant's case is adequately documented  and  it  has  not  been
shown that a personal appearance with or  without  counsel  will  materially
add to our understanding of the issue(s) involved.  Therefore,  the  request
for a hearing is not favorably considered.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air  Force  relating
to APPLICANT, be corrected to show  that  the  Senior  Enlisted  Performance
Report (MSgt through  CMSgt),  AF  Form  911,  rendered  for  the  period  2
September 1991 through 1 September 1992,  be,  and  hereby  is,  amended  in
Section IV, DAFSC, by placing “45772” rather than “70230”.
