RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-00237 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

He be given a colonel Certificate of Eligibility (COE) for both 
the Spring and Fall 2010 Air National Guard (ANG) Federal 
Recognition Examination Board. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He met the requirements; however, he was never boarded for a COE 
in accordance with ANGI 36-2504, Federal Recognition of 
Promotion in the Air National Guard and as a Reserve of the Air 
Force Below the Grade of General Officer paragraph 3.5 and 3.6. 

 

His commander made his intentions known in May 2010; however, 
other officials failed to act and did not follow the process and 
this has caused a serious set-back in his ANG career. 

 

In support of his request, the applicant provides copies of 
email communiqué. 

 

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

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant is presently serving in the grade of lieutenant 
colonel having assumed that grade effective and with a date of 
rank of 4 Nov 06 and effective date of 30 Apr 07. 

 

AFI 36-2504 states, “Officers considered for position vacancy 
promotion to the grade of colonel must be assigned to an 
appropriate unit manpower document (UMD) position. UMDs will not 
be changed and States will not be authorized to exceed 
established colonel authorization ceiling. States are required 
to submit their officers for promotion consideration by one of 
the two boards convened each year for officer promotions to the 
grade of colonel. Complete recommendations will be forwarded to 
ANG/DP, not later than 15 January for the Spring Board and not 
later than 15 July for the Fall Board, for personnel found 
qualified by a Federal Recognition Examination Board. Packages 


arriving at ANG/DP after the dates stated will be held for the 
subsequent ANG Colonel’s Federal Recognition Review Board.” 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

NGB/A1POP states there is no action they can take or relief they 
can grant since the TX ANG has never submitted the applicant for 
promotion to the grade of colonel. 

 

The complete A1POP evaluation is at Exhibit B. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

He disagrees with the NGB/A1POP evaluation and believes the 
commander’s intent was not supported and the individuals 
responsible should be investigated for not doing their jobs. 

 

The applicant's complete response is at 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. We took notice 
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of 
the case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation 
of the Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt its 
rationale as the basis for our conclusion the applicant has not 
been the victim of an error or injustice. Further, we note the 
applicant failed to provide any evidence showing a 
recommendation package was submitted by his rating chain. 
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.
