RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2006-02098
INDEX CODE: 131.01, 107.00
XXXXXXX COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE: 15 JANUARY 2008
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
He be given Special Selection Board (SSB) consideration by the
Calendar Year 2003A (CY03A) Major Central Selection Board, with
inclusion of his officer performance report (OPR) that covered the
period 23 March 2002 through 22 March 2003.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
The promotion board did not grade his complete record-a full year of
performance was left out; therefore, they did not have the most
complete picture from which to judge his future potential based on his
past performance. Though it is the responsibility of the senior rater
to determine what to put in a performance recommendation form (PRF)
and what to focus on, it was his responsibility to provide all
pertinent information for him to make the decision. Because he was
told erroneous information, his senior rater did not have all his past
awards and they were not included in his PRF. Again, the board did not
have the most accurate portrayal of his performance to judge.
In support of his application, the applicant submitted a personal
letter, emails, letters of congratulation, and draft comments.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is currently serving in the Reserves in the grade of
captain. The applicant has two nonselections to the grade of major by
the CY03A and CY03B Major Central Selection Boards.
The applicant's OPR that closed out on 22 March 2003 was not required
to be on file until 22 May 2003.
Applicant’s OPR profile is listed below.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPPO recommends denial. In support of his appeal, the applicant
provided an email from Col B__ who states that it was his intent to
have the 5 May 2003 OPR filed in his record prior to the board.
However, he is not listed as an evaluator nor does he indicate what
efforts he made to expedite the processing of the OPR and to ensure it
arrived in time for the board. The applicant has not provided a
supporting statement from any of his raters. In addition the
applicant's OPR was not signed by his rater and additional rater until
30 April 2003. The reviewer signed on 5 May 2003, the same day the
CY03A board convened. The omission of this report was not an error
since it was not equired to be filed in his OSR for the CY03A board.
AFPC/DPPPO complete evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on
18 August 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. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate
the existence of an error or injustice. After thoroughly reviewing
the applicant's complete submission, we are not persuaded that the
applicant's records warrant reconsideration by an SSB for promotion to
the grade of major. In this regard, the Board notes the OPR was
processed within the time allowed by AFI 36-2406 and that it was not
required to be on file at the time the CY03A major promotion board
convened on 5 May 2003. The applicant has not provided any
evidence from his rating chain that it was their intent that the OPR
be placed in his records prior to the CY03A board or that it was
unduly delayed or failed to be processed in a timely manner.
Therefore, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the Air
Force and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the
applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice.
Therefore, 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 that the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of probable 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.

However, Air Force policy does not allow for decorations with close out dates or approval dates after the convening of the board to be filed in a member’s record.

When he was considered by the CY03A and two subsequent boards, his record included an Officer Performance Report (OPR) with inappropriate statements. Although applicant has provided a memo from his SR, dated 28 October 2004, which contained the statement “The OPR as originally written had the strong potential to unfairly prejudice a SR and promotion board in a negative fashion, and did not accurately reflect your true potential.”, this statement is generic in nature in that he refers to “a...
