AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-00052
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
IN THE MATTER OF:
______________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His current rank of airman (E-2) be corrected to airman first
class (E-3).
______________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
When he signed his enlistment paperwork it mentioned that if his
transcripts were entered prior to his six month mark, he would
currently be serving in the grade of airman first class. His
transcripts are a part of his enlistment contract. He attempted
to have this problem fixed while attending technical school;
however, nothing was accomplished.
The applicant does not provide any supporting documentation.
His complete submission is at Exhibit A.
______________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is currently serving in the grade of airman in the
Air Force Reserve.
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:
AFRC/RSOO recommends denial. The applicant has not provided any
documentation supporting his request to be awarded the advanced
rank of airman first class. Furthermore, there is no record of
the applicant presenting qualifying educational transcripts for
promotion eligibility before attending Basic Military Training
(BMT), or prior to BMT graduation, as required. In addition, as
part of the enlistment contract, enlistees initial a statement
acknowledging they may be entitled to advanced rank, but are
choosing to enlist as an E-1 (sometimes new members are unable to
retrieve transcripts due to unpaid college expenses, other
documentation entitling them to advanced rank (e.g. Eagle Scout),
or their priority is leaving the area quickly for BMT).
The complete AFRC/RSOO evaluation is at Exhibit B.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant
on 6 Mar 12 for review and comment within 30 days. 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 opinion and recommendation
of the Air Force Reserve Command office of primary responsibility
and adopt its 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.
