                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2006-00285
            INDEX CODE:  111.02

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE:  1 AUG 07

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Officer Performance Report (OPR) rendered for the period 19 Nov 95
to 18 Nov 96 be amended  in  Section  VII,  Additional  Rater  Overall
Assessment, line three, to  read  “Piloted  23  sorties  into  Bosnia;
delivered over  1.69  million  pounds  of  vital  cargo  under  severe
conditions.”

His Officer Performance Report (OPR) rendered for the period 19 Nov 95
to 18 Nov 96 be amended  in  Section  VII,  Additional  Rater  Overall
Assessment, line four, to read “Immune  to  pressure;  hand-picked  to
brief SECDEF msn for this C-17A flight into Bosnian combat zone.”

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

Line three of Section VII  of  the  contested  report  overstates  his
performance.  This is an error that he very recently noticed as he was
working to correct another line on the same OPR.  Though  it  is  true
that he flew 35 sorties in support of Bosnia peacekeeping efforts  and
all into the Area of Responsibility (AOR), it is also true  that  only
23 of those were into Bosnia itself.  The other 12  were  into  either
Taszar, Hungary or Brindisi, Italy.  The Air  Medal  required  sorties
into Bosnia (15 or 20).  His log book accurately  preserves  that  the
23 missions carried a total of 1,694.320 pounds of cargo.

Line four of Section  VII  of  the  contested  report  overstates  his
performance.  The OPR input he gave to his rater basically  said  that
he had briefed the  SECDEF  mission  into  Bosnia.   The  meaning  was
misunderstood.  The facts are that he gave the tactics portion of  the
mission briefing to the two C-17A crews at Rhein Main Air  Base  (AB),
Germany.  Following this briefing, these two crews flew the two C-17As
to another airfield where one picked up the  SECDEF  while  the  other
remained a ready spare.  The primary aircraft then carried the  SECDEF
into Bosnia.

Applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.

support proving the comment is false.

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPPPEP evaluation is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

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.  Applicant’s complete  submission
was thoroughly reviewed and his contentions were duly noted.  However,
other than his own assertions, no evidence has  been  presented  which
would lead us to believe that the applicant’s evaluators  rendered  an
inaccurate depiction of his performance.  In view  of  the  foregoing,
and in the absence of persuasive evidence that  the  contested  report
was not an accurate assessment of his performance at the time  it  was
originally prepared, we find no compelling basis to recommend granting
the relief sought in this application.  However, if the applicant were
to provide support from  his  evaluators,  we  would  be  inclined  to
reconsider his request to amend the contested report.

_________________________________________________________________

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.

    Each time the report was corrected the current date was used to re-sign the report rather than the date the report was originally signed. The rater states the original report was signed prior to the selection board; he was forced to re-accomplish the report, not only once but twice, preventing the report to be viewed as part of the promotion record.
