RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-04723 

 COUNSEL: NO 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

__________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His records be considered by Special Selection Board (SSB) for the 
Calendar Year 2009B (CY09B) Lieutenant Colonel (Lt Col) Central 
Selection Board (CSB) with a substituted Promotion Recommendation 
Form (PRF). 

 

__________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

His In-the-Promotion-Zone (IPZ) PRF for the CY09B CSB contained 
errors and did not match his career accomplishments. There were 
critical career accomplishments that were omitted and the errors 
remained despite his efforts to resolve the problem prior to the 
CSB convening. 

 

In support of his appeal, the applicant provides a personal 
statement, PRFs, electronic communications, non-selection 
notification, Officer Selection Brief, Awards and Decoration 
Information, Officer Performance Reports (OPRs), and 
Education/Training Reports. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at 
Exhibit A. 

 

__________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in the 
grade of major (O-4) with a Total Active Federal Military Service 
Date and Total Active Federal Commissioned Service Date of 15 July 
1995. 

 

He has two non-selections to the grade of Lt Col by the CY09B and 
CY10A Lt Col CSBs. 

 

The remaining relevant facts extracted from the applicant service 
records are contained in the evaluations by the Air Force offices 
of primary responsibility at Exhibit B and C.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSID recommends denial of the applicant’s request to 
substitute his CY09B PRF. DPSID states that the applicant’s 
request to substitute his PRF lacks support from his Senior Rater; 
therefore, there is no signature on the substituted PRF provided. 
A report is not erroneous or unfair because the applicant believes 
it contributed to a non-selection for promotion or may impact 
future promotion or career opportunities. The applicant reviewed 
his PRF in accordance with (IAW) Air Force Instruction (AFI) 36-
2406, paragraph 8.1.4.1.7., and pointed out the errors on the PRF 
prior to the CSB. The Senior Rater made two corrections to the 
PRF and submitted the new PRF to the applicant IAW paragraph 8.5. 
While the applicant believes that this is an injustice, IAW AFI 
36-2401, paragraph A1.6.2.2., the Senior Rater bears the 
responsibility of selecting what to include in the PRF, and what 
to leave out; which portions of the officer’s career to 
concentrate on, and which portions to have supported by the 
record. While the PRF may not be worded the way the applicant 
would like to describe his accomplishments, the selection board 
had his entire Officer Selection Record (OSR) that clearly 
outlined his accomplishments since the day he came on active duty. 

 

IAW AFI 36-2401, paragraph A1.6, to have the PRF corrected in 
Section IV (Promotion Recommendation), it requires the concurrence 
of both the Senior Rater and the Management Level Review (MLR) 
President. By the applicant’s own words, the Senior Rater 
considered the applicant’s request and made adjustments to the PRF 
accordingly. To grant the applicant’s request would be to discard 
the Senior Rater’s input and authority. The applicant has failed 
to provide support from the Senior Rater or MLR President. 

 

The complete DPSID evaluation is at Exhibit C. 

 

AFPC/DPSOO recommends denial of the applicant’s request for 
consideration by an SSB. DPSOO states that their evaluation 
requires them to rely on the opinions of other Air Force experts. 
As such, they have reviewed the evaluation from DPSID and based on 
their recommendation to deny the applicant’s request to substitute 
the CY09B PRF, they recommend the Board deny his request for SSB 
consideration. 

 

The complete DPSOO evaluation is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the 
applicant on 1 April 2011 for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit D). As of this date, this office has received no 
response. 

 

__________________________________________________________________ 

 


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. We took notice 
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of 
the case; however, we agree with the opinions and recommendations 
of the Air Force offices of primary responsibility and adopt their 
rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has 
not been the victim of an error or injustice. Therefore, in the 
absence of 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 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.
