RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2009-04094
INDEX CODE: 131.01
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
She be granted Special Selection Board (SSB) consideration by the 8 Jun 09,
(P0509B) Lieutenant Colonel (Lt Col) Central Selection Board (CSB) with
inclusion of her Officer Performance Report (OPR) rendered for the period
of 14 Apr 08 thru 13 Apr 09 in her Officer Selection Record (OSR).
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She was hospitalized and on bed rest from 23 Mar 09 thru 16 Jun 09,
followed by convalescent leave from 17 Jun 09 thru 7 Aug 09. During that
time, she repeatedly telephoned and emailed her rater to ensure her OPR was
signed and turned in. The report was signed on 19 May 09 and submitted to
the Military Personnel Flight. The information was updated in the Military
Personnel Data Systems (MilPDS); however, the report was never sent to the
Air Force Personnel Center (AFPC) to be included in her OSR. She did
everything in her power to ensure the accuracy of her record, but her
efforts fell short. She would like to be considered for a SSB.
In support of her request, the applicant submits a copy of her OPR and
transmittal record.
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 major.
She has two non-selections to the grade of Lt Col.
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application, extracted from
the applicant’s military records, are contained in the letters prepared by
the appropriate office of the Air Force at Exhibit C and D.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
HQ AFPC/DPSIDEP has no recommendation. DPSIDEP states although the report
closed out on 13 Apr 09, it was not required to be in the applicant’s
record until 60 days after the close-out date or 13 Jun 09. The board
convened on 8 Jun 09; however, the report was not finalized until 6 Nov 09.
DPSIDEP notes there are other officers in similar circumstances and to
allow the applicant’s OPR to be included after the board convenes would
give her an advantage other officers are not afforded.
The complete DPSIDEP evaluation is at Exhibit C.
HQ AFPC/DPSOO recommends denial. DPSOO states the absence of the OPR was
not an error because the report was not required to be filed in her OSR
until 12 Jun 09 (after the 8 Jun 09 convening board date).
DPSOO notes eligible officers meeting the CSB have the option to submit a
letter to the board president addressing any matter of record concerning
themselves that they believe is important to their consideration for
promotion. As such, the applicant could have written a letter to the board
members informing them of the accomplishments mentioned in the report. We
have confirmed the applicant did not take these steps.
The complete DPSOO evaluation is at Exhibit D.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the applicant on 5
Mar 10 for review and comment within 30 days. As of this date, this office
has received no response (Exhibit D).
_________________________________________________________________
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. The applicant’s complete submission was
thoroughly reviewed and her contentions were duly noted. However, we do
not find these assertions and the documentation presented in support of her
appeal sufficiently persuasive to override the rationale expressed by the
Air Force offices of primary responsibility (OPR). Therefore, we agree
with the opinions and recommendations of the Air Force OPRs and adopt their
rationale as the basis for our conclusion the applicant has not been the
victim of an error or injustice. Accordingly, we find no basis on which to
favorably consider 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.
