                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS

         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2007-02887
            INDEX CODE:  131.01, 107.00
            COUNSEL:  NOT INDICATED

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her date of rank (DOR) to captain be backdated to 28 May 07.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

She was projected to be promoted to the grade of captain in the Regular
Air Force on 28 May 07, however, she separated on 2 Aug 06,  under  the
PALACE CHASE Program and joined the Air National Guard (ANG) on  3  Aug
06.  She missed the Fiscal Year 2007 (FY07)  Captain  Promotion  Board,
and had to wait until May 07, to meet the FY08 Captain Promotion Board,
where she was selected for promotion.  As a  result,  she  was  delayed
promotion by over four months past her peers and  feels  there  was  no
justification to delay her promotion.

Applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant was commissioned a second lieutenant in the  Regular  Air
Force on 28 May 03, was promoted to the grade of first  lieutenant  and
separated on 2 Aug 06. She entered the ANG on  3 Aug  06,  as  a  first
lieutenant and was promoted  to  the  grade  of  captain  by  the  FY08
Captains Promotion Board effective 1 Oct 07.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

NGB/A1PS recommends  denial.   A1PS  states,  the  close-out  date  for
compiling names for the FY07 Captain’s list was 1 May 06, so she missed
getting on this list and was placed on the next available  list,  which
was the FY08 Captain’s promotion list.  She was selected for  promotion
on the FY08 Captain Promotion list.  While it is unfortunate  that  her
transfer from active duty was not in time to  place  her  on  the  FY07
Captain’s list, all actions taken by the ANG were done correctly.

The complete NGB/A1PS 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 11
Jan 08, 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.  Evidence has  not  been  provided
which would lead us to believe the rules of the  applicable  Air  Force
Instructions, which implement the law, were inappropriately applied  or
that the applicant was denied rights to which entitled.  Therefore, the
Board agrees with the opinion  and  recommendation  of  the  Air  Force
office of primary responsibility and adopts its rationale as the  basis
for our conclusion that the applicant has not been  the  victim  of  an
error or injustice.  In the  absence  of  persuasive  evidence  to  the
contrary, we find no 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.

    It is disheartening as he watched his active duty JAG counterparts promoted on time, yet as a Guard JAG he is held to the same standard as far as knowledge, training, and deployments, yet he was promoted more than a year later. There is a requirement that the officer be in an active status for one year prior to submission for promotion on a promotion list, as well as meeting the two year time-in-grade requirement. In this respect, it appears the applicant’s DOR was appropriately...
