INDEX CODE: 112.07
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE: 19 OCT 2008
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
He be given a waiver of the promotion eligibility cutoff date (PECD)
for cycle 07E6.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Poor timing prevented him from receiving briefings explaining his
reenlistment options pertaining to testing eligibility.
In support of his request, applicant provided a copy of Transition
Assistance program documents relative to his separation.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force as an airman basic on
21 November 1991 and was progressively promoted to the grade of staff
sergeant. On 26 September 2002, he was commissioned a second
lieutenant and was promoted to the grade of captain. On 29 September
2006, he was honorably released as a captain due to officer force
shaping. He reenlisted on 26 February 2007 and was accessed in the
rank of staff sergeant with a date of rank of 27 November 1998, and
currently serves in that grade.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPPWB recommends the applicant’s request be denied. DPPPWB
states in part, based on his enlistment date of 26 February 2007, he
was not eligible for promotion consideration during cycle 07E6
according to AFI 36-2502, Table 2.1, Minimum Eligibility Requirements
for Promotion. Airmen must serve on active duty in enlisted status as
of the PECD (31 December 2006 for cycle 07E6).
The DPPPWB 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
15 June 2007 for review and comment within 30 days. As of this date,
no response has been received by this office.
_________________________________________________________________
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 error or injustice. After a thorough review of the
applicant’s submission to include his contention that he was not
thoroughly counseled on his enlistment options, we are not persuaded
that the relief requested should be granted. We took notice of the
complete submission in judging the merits of the case; however, we
agree with the opinions and recommendation of the Air Force office of
primary responsibility and adopt its rationale as the basis for our
conclusion that the member has not been the victim of an error or
injustice. Therefore, we find no compelling basis to warrant
favorable consideration of 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.
