RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2006-01889
INDEX CODE: 131.09
XXXXXXX
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
MANDATORY COMPLETION DATE: 24 DECEMBER 2007
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His records be corrected to show he was promoted to the Reserve grade of
senior master sergeant (SMSgt) effective and with a date of rank (DOR) of 1
March 2005.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
In accordance with AFI 36-2502, Chapter 4, Section 5, he should have been
placed on the promotion eligibility roster for the 1 March 2005,
promotion cycle. He respectfully request a retroactive promotion date since
the organization wanted and intended to promote him during the 1 March
2005, promotion cycle but was significantly delayed, due to technical and
administrative system problems beyond his control
In support of his application, the applicant has provided a summary of
events, a copy of AFI 36-2502, and emails.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant is currently serving in the Air Force Reserve in the grade of
senior master sergeant with a date of rank of 1 January 2006.
The applicant was assigned to a higher graded position (SMSgt) effective 13
January 2005.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
ARPC/DPB recommended denial and stated the applicant provide no supporting
documents to prove he was eligible for promotion effective 1 March 2005.
AFI 36-2502, Airman Promotion, Table 4.2, rule 11 states that individual
mobilization augmentees (IMAs) must be in the position for six months prior
to promotion. It also states this particular requirement can be waived by
the promotion authority with proper justification. Paragraph 4.5.4.3 states
that the promotion authority can add a name to their eligibility roster to
promote someone not originally on the list.
There does appear to have been a problem updating the Manpower files to
reflect a fully funded position. If this update had happened correctly, the
applicant could have been promoted 1 September 2005, the first
promotion cycle following completion of the six months in the position.
ARPC/DPB’s 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 1
September 2006 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. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the
existence of an error or an injustice warranting partial relief of the
applicant's request. In this regard, after review of the applicant's
complete submission, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the
Air Force office of primary responsibility that there does appear to have
been a problem updating the manpower files to reflect a fully funded
position. If the updates happen correctly, the applicant could have been
promoted 1 September 2005, the first promotion cycle following completion
of the six months after he was assigned to the SMSgt position. In view of
the above, we recommend that the records be corrected as indicated below.
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 issues 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 he was promoted to the grade of
SMSgt, Reserve of the Air Force, effective 1 September 2005.
