RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2007-01887
INDEX CODE: 131.00
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His 6 Sep 01 duty title entry be corrected to reflect “ST, KC-135 CMBT
EMPLOYMENT SCHL” on his Officer Selection Brief (OSB) and he be considered
for promotion to the grade of lieutenant colonel by a Special Selection
Board (SSB) for the CY06C Lieutenant Colonel Central Selection Board (CSB).
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
The selection board’s ability to accurately assess his record was hampered
due to a duty history omission for weapons school accomplishment. Through
the years he has diligently maintained his records.
In support of his request, applicant provides a supporting letter from his
former wing commander, a copy of his OSB and duty history information print-
out.
The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The Military Personnel Data System (MilPDS) indicates the applicant’s Total
Active Federal Military Service Date as 21 Mar 93. He is currently serving
on active duty in the grade of major, with a date of rank of 1 Apr 03.
MilPDS reflects his assignment history effective 6 Sep 01 as “ST, KC-135
CMBT EMPLOYMENT SCHL.”
He was considered and not selected for promotion to the grade of lieutenant
colonel by the CY06C lieutenant colonel CSB.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPAO recommends the missing duty title be inserted in the applicant’s
OSB. DPAO advises that the duty title omission may have had a minor impact
on the boards’ awareness that he was a weapons school graduate. The
AFPC/DPAO complete evaluation is at Exhibit C.
AFPC/DPPPO recommends denial. DPPPO states that the applicant has not
provided any documentation to show what action was taken prior to the board
to correct the error on his OSB. The applicant did not exercise reasonable
diligence in ensuring his record was accurate prior to the CSB, therefore,
DPPPO recommends the request for SSB be denied. The AFPC/DPPPO complete
evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit D.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Applicant indicates he is a near expert maintainer of his records. He
personally initiated and closed five corrections and updates which were
very challenging due to the 500 days he was TDY. He believes his omitted
duty history was a major factor towards his non-selection as compared to
his peers. He executed everything he could to insure his records were
ready and through no fault of anyone, the system did not keep up during a
crucial evaluation point in his very successful career. The applicant’s
complete letter, with attachments, is at Exhibit F.
_________________________________________________________________
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 injustice. After reviewing the evidence of record, we note
the applicant’s OSB did not reflect the 2001 “W” prefix of a weapons school
graduate at the time the board convened; however, evidence supports that
his Education/Training Report and subsequent lines in his duty history
reflected the “W” prefix. In view of this fact, the Board majority is not
persuaded that the absence of this information on his OSB caused his record
to be so erroneous or misleading that the duly constituted selection board,
vested with the authority to score officer’s records for promotion, was
unable to reach a reasonable decision concerning his promotability in
relation to his peers. It is the Board majority’s opinion, based on the
facts of this case, that the applicant has received fair and equitable
consideration for promotion through the selection board process. The
applicant has not provided any evidence to show he was treated differently
than other members in his same situation. Therefore, a majority of the
Board agrees with the opinion and recommendation of the Officer Promotions
and Appointments Branch and adopts its rationale as the basis for the Board
majority findings in the case. Accordingly, the applicant’s request for
SSB consideration is not favorably considered.
_________________________________________________________________
RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD:
A majority of the Board finds insufficient evidence of error or injustice
and recommends the application be denied.

His two Air Medals (AM) were absent from his OSR. This action took five months to complete; not timely processing. However, noting the Air Force's assessment that the correct duty title was reflected on his OPR covering the contested period and therefore, available to the selection board members, and finding no persuasive evidence that this discrepancy in and of itself, caused his nonselection for promotion, we agree with the Air Force that SSB consideration was not warranted.

The complete evaluation is at Exhibit C. AFPC/DPPPO recommends the AFBCMR grant SSB consideration with inclusion of the updated deployment history on his OSB and removal of the discrepancy report. Notwithstanding our recommendation above, we agree with AFPC/DPAOM6 that the applicant did attempt to correct his duty history and deployment history prior to meeting the Board, and therefore should be afforded SSB consideration with the corrected OSB. Therefore, the Board recommends that the...
