AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2006-01620
INDEX CODE: 131.00
XXXXXXXXXXXX COUNSEL: Mr. Raymond J. Toney
HEARING DESIRED: YES
MANDATORY COMPLETION DATE: 28 NOVEMEBER 2007
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
He be considered by a Special Selection Board (SSB) for promotion to the
grade of colonel by the Calendar Year 2000A Colonel Central Selection Board
using modified selection methodology.
________________________________________________________________
THE APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Given the circumstances of his case, he believes his record should be
considered by a SSB under the selection rules set forth under the February
2004 policy letter from the Secretary of the Air Force dealing with cases
of 'reverse discrimination.'
Applicant submits no supporting documentation. Applicant’s complete
submission is at Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 26 September 2005, the applicant was selected for promotion by the
Special Selection Board for the CY94A Lieutenant Colonel Line Central
Selection Board with a retroactive date of rank of 1 September 1995.
On 21 June 2006, the Board considered and granted the applicant’s request
to be considered by a SSB for promotion to the grade of colonel by the
Calendar Year 2000A Colonel Central Selection Board. In addition, the
Board granted the applicant's request that a Promotion Recommendation Form
(PRF) be accomplished; however, the Board denied his request to have the
PRF marked with a "Definitely Promote (DP). The Board recommended the
Senior Rater be tasked with preparing an appropriate PRF.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/PB recommends denial. PB advises the error or injustice related to
the equal opportunity (EO) clause was corrected with the applicant's
selection to lieutenant colonel by the CY05C SSB. The EO clause was no
longer being used at the time of the original CY00A Colonel Central
Selection Board; the possible "taint" that may have been associated with
benchmark records for the 1990-1998 selection boards, and resulted in the
modified selection methodology, does not affect benchmark records for the
2000 boards. The AFPC/PB evaluation is at Exhibit B.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT’S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATIONS:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 16
July 2006 for review and comment within 30 days. As of this date, this
office has not received a 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. The applicant's request that he be
considered by a Special Selection Board (SSB) for promotion to the grade of
colonel using modified selection methodology was noted. However, we defer
to the opinion and recommendation of the Air Force office of primary
responsibility who has adequately addressed this issue and we are in
agreement with its recommendation. Accordingly, we find no compelling
basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this application.
4. 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 involved. Therefore, the request for a
hearing is not favorably considered.
________________________________________________________________
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.
