                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2010-03774

            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Officer Performance Report (OPR) rendered  for  the  period  29  May  05
through 1 Mar 06 be removed from his record.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

The Mission Support Group Commander exhibited undue  command  influence  and
coercion over the Mission Support Squadron Commander, forcing her  to  place
undue emphasis on a  single  incident  that  being  minor,  correctable  ORI
findings.

The evidence submitted in support of the appeal is at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The relevant facts pertaining to  this  application  are  contained  in  the
letter prepared by the appropriate office of the  Air  Force.   Accordingly,
there is no need to recite these facts in this Record of Proceedings.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSID reviewed this  application  and  recommends  denial.   Air  Force
policy is that an evaluation report is accurate as written when  it  becomes
a matter of record.  When challenging  an  OPR,  it  is  necessary  to  have
support   from   all   the    members    in    the    rating    chain    for
clarification/explanation.  The applicant has not  provided  information  or
support from everyone in the rating chain  on  the  contested  report.   The
statements the applicant submitted were from individuals not in  the  rating
chain for the period of the report.

Furthermore, an evaluation report is  considered  to  represent  the  rating
chain’s best judgment at  the  time  it  is  rendered.   Once  a  report  is
accepted for file, only strong evidence to the contrary warrants  correction
or removal from the service member’s records.  The burden  of  proof  is  on
the applicant.  The applicant  has  not  substantiated  that  the  contested
report was not rendered in  good  faith  by  all  evaluators  based  on  the
knowledge available at the time.  A complete copy of the  evaluation  is  at
Exhibit C.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to applicant on 28  Jan  11
for review and comment.  As of this date, no response has been  received  by
this office (Exhibit C).

_________________________________________________________________

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   careful   consideration   of
applicant's  request  and  the  available  evidence  of  record,   we   find
insufficient evidence of error or injustice to  warrant  corrective  action.
The facts and opinions stated in the advisory opinion appear to be based  on
the evidence of record and have not  been  rebutted  by  applicant.   Absent
persuasive  evidence  applicant  was  denied  rights  to   which   entitled,
appropriate regulations were not followed,  or  appropriate  standards  were
not applied, we find no basis to disturb the existing record.

_________________________________________________________________

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.
