RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2007-03525
INDEX CODE:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXX COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: YES
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
He be considered by a Special Selection Board (SSB) for retention by the
Fiscal Year 2007 (FY07) Reduction In Force (RIF) Board.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Conflicting guidance and the Military Personnel Flight's failure to notify
him of change in guidance for filling out the Retention Recommendation Form
(RRF) led to a weak RRF as compared to his peers. His Officer Selection
Brief (OSB) did not list his Air and Space Basic Course (ASBC) in the
Developmental Education section. His records did not reflect his
Acquisition Certification and language skills, as all are reflected in the
virtual MPF (vMPF). In addition, applicant states the citation for his Air
Force Commendation Medal (AFCM) first oak leaf cluster (1OLC) was missing
from his selection folder.
In support of his request, applicant provided a personal statement,
documentation extracted from the vMPF, email communiqué, and documentation
extracted from his military personnel records. His complete submission,
with attachments, is at Exhibit A
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
Applicant is currently serving on active duty in the grade of captain. He
was considered and not selected for retention by the FY07 RIF board.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATIONS:
AFPC/DPSIDEP recommends denial. Regarding his contention that he was
provided conflicting guidance and was not notified of policy changes,
DPSIDEP states that in support of his request he provided documentation
that applies only to those eligible for the 2007 Force Shaping Board, not
for those, including himself, in the RIF board. These are two different
programs. His RRF was prepared in accordance with the proper guidelines.
The AFPC/DPSIDEP complete evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit C.
AFPC/DPSOO recommends denial. DPSOO states written instructions attached
to his Officer Preselection Brief (OPB) specifically states that only Basic
Developmental Education (BDE) and Intermediate Development Education (IDE)
will be reflected in the Developmental Education Block on the OSB.
Therefore, his Developmental Education Block on his OSB was not in error.
His AFCM (1OLC) was awarded in 2004, the applicant had ample time to ensure
the citation was filed in his record. He was directed to request a copy of
his OSB in the OPB instructions in order to ensure his record was correct.
It is the officer's responsibility to ensure the accuracy of his record,
had he checked his OSR prior to the RIF board, he would have noticed the
missing citation and taken corrective action at that time. The board was
knowledgeable of the existence of the AFCM as it was reflected on his OSB
and the achievements noted in the citation were mentioned in the
corresponding performance reports.
DPSOO states he was notified of his right to communicate with the board
president to call attention to any matter he felt important to his
consideration. As such he had the opportunity to write to the board
members informing them of his certification and language skills prior to
the RIF board, not after his nonselection.
The AFPC/DPSOO complete evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit D.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATIONS:
Applicant provided a response to the Air Force evaluations which 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 error or injustice. After a thorough review of the evidence
of record and the applicant’s submission, it is our opinion that relief is
not warranted in this case and the applicant has not provided evidence
which would lead us to believe otherwise. His contentions are duly noted;
however, in our opinion the comments provided by the offices of primary
responsibility adequately address his allegations. Therefore, we are in
agreement with their comments and recommendations and adopt their rationale
as the basis for our decision that the applicant has not been the victim of
either an error or injustice. Accordingly, we believe the RIF board had at
its disposal a sufficiently accurate record on which to base its decision.
In view of the above, we find no basis to recommend granting the relief
sought in this application.
4. The applicant’s case is adequately documented and it has not been shown
that a personal appearance with or without counsel will materially add to
our understanding of the issues involved. Therefore, the request for a
hearing is not favorably considered.
_________________________________________________________________
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.

As such, the applicant could have written a letter to the board advising it of the error in his duty information and what should have been the correct organization.
