IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2006-01598
INDEX CODE: 131.00
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE: 27 Nov 07
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
He be promoted to the rank of major.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He should have been commissioned as a major. He is board certified in
Internal Medicine and believes when his application for commissioning was
processed, his board certification was not used in determining his
commissioning grade.
In support of his request, the applicant provided documents extracted from
his military personnel records.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 9 May 2003, the applicant was appointed into the Air Force Reserves
(AFRes) as a captain based on receiving nine years, three months, and five
days service credit for his education, internship, residency programs and
experience.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
ARPC/DPA recommends denial. DPA states IAW AFI 36-2005, Table 2.4, Service
Credit on Appointment as a Medical or Dental Officer, Rule 1, 2, and 3,
service credit is not awarded for board certification but credited for
completion of the residency program. Therefore, no additional service
credit is awarded for the Internal Medicine Board Certification.
DPA’s complete evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 23 June 2006, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the
applicant 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. Evidence has not been presented which
would lead us to believe that the regulations in effect at the time were
not appropriately applied or that he was treated differently than others in
similar situations. After reviewing the available evidence of record it
appears that his grade and date of rank upon enlistment on 9 May 2003 into
the AFRes were properly determined. Accordingly, we agree with the opinion
and recommendation of the Air Force 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 in this application.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not demonstrate the
existence of an error or an injustice; the application was denied without a
personal appearance; and the application will only be reconsidered upon the
submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this
application.
