RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:                 DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2007-00055
                                  INDEX CODE:  111.02
  XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX                 COUNSEL:  NONE

                                  HEARING DESIRED:  NO


MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE:  13 July 2008


_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

The duty title on his Officer Performance  Report  (OPR)  rendered  for  the
period of 10 November 2004 through 9 November 2005  be  changed  to  reflect
“OIC,  ACC  Regional  Certificate  Authority”   versus   “Communications   &
Information Officer.”

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

The duty title on his OPR  closing  9  November  2005  does  not  accurately
reflect the responsibilities held with the position.

In support of his request, the applicant submits a  copy  of  the  contested
OPR and a proposed OPR reflecting the requested duty title.

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving on active duty  in  the  grade  of  first
lieutenant with a date of rank of 10 November 2006.  The Military  Personnel
Database (MilPDS)  indicates  the  applicant  has  a  Total  Active  Federal
Military Service Date of  11  February  2003  and  a  Total  Active  Federal
Commissioned Service Date of 10 November 2004.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPPEP recommends denying the applicant’s request.  DPPPEP states  that
MILPDS  reflects  that  “Communications  &  Information  Officer”  was   the
applicant’s correct duty title.   The  office  of  Officer  Assignments  has
confirmed  that  “OIC,  ACC  Regional  Certificate   Authority   Workstation
Facility” is not an approved duty  title  for  the  position  the  applicant
held.  Requests for duty title changes must be submitted to and approved  by
the functional manager before they are  official.   The  Comm-Communications
Officer Assignment Team at AFPC has no record of any request to  change  the
applicant’s duty title.  It appears  the  OPR  was  accomplished  in  direct
accordance  with  applicable  regulations.    The   applicant   provided   a
substitute report with  the  original  evaluator  signatures;  however,  the
willingness of evaluators to change a report is not enough.   The  applicant
must provide clear evidence that  the  original  evaluation  was  unjust  or
wrong.  It is necessary to hear form all the members  of  the  rating  chain
not  only  for  support,  but  also  for   clarification/explanation.    The
applicant has failed to provide  any  information/support  from  the  rating
chain on the contested OPR.

DPPPEP states an evaluation report is considered  to  represent  the  rating
chain’s best judgment at  the  time  it  is  rendered.   Once  a  report  is
accepted for file, only strong evidence to the contrary warrants  correction
or removal from an individual’s record.  The  burden  of  proof  is  on  the
member.  The applicant has not substantiated the contested  report  was  not
rendered in good faith by all evaluators based on  the  knowledge  available
at the time.

The DPPPEP evaluation is at Exhibit B.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was  forwarded  to  the  applicant  on  9
February 2007 for review and comment within 30 days.  As of this date,  this
office has received no response (Exhibit C).

_________________________________________________________________

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 an injustice.  We took notice  of  the  applicant's
complete submission in judging the merits of the  case;  however,  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.   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 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.
