AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

 

 
 

 
 

 
 
 

 
 
 

DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2012-00084 
COUNSEL: NONE 
HEARING DESIRED:  NO 

IN THE MATTER OF:   
 
 
     
 
     
 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:  
 
He  be  allowed  to  meet  a  Supplemental  Reduction  in  Force  (RIF) 
Board. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 
 
He would like the CY11 RIF Board to reconsider their decision to 
not  select  him  for  the  RIF.    He  was  not  aware  that  he  could 
write  a  letter  to  the  board  to  request  he  be  selected  for 
separation.    His  personal  and  professional  desire  is  to  leave 
active  duty  and  explore  his  options  in  the  civilian  sector.  
However,  leaving  with  a  financial  separation  package  would 
mitigate  the  risk.    By  reconsidering  him  for  the  RIF,  the  Air 
Force  could  potentially  minimize  the  number  of  officers  who 
desire  to  stay  on  active  duty  that  involuntarily  lost  their 
jobs. 
 
In  support  of  his  appeal,  the  applicant  submits  a  personal 
statement. 
 
The  applicant’s  complete  submission,  with  attachment,  is  at 
Exhibit A. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
STATEMENT OF FACTS: 
 
The applicant is active duty serving in the grade of major.   
 
The relevant facts pertaining to this application are described 
in  the  letter  prepared  by  the  Air  Force  office  of  primary 
responsibility which is included in Exhibit B.  
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
 
AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
AFPC/DPSOO  recommends  denial.    The  applicant  met  and  was 
selected  for  retention  by  the  L0411B,  19  September  2011,  RIF 

Board.    The  results  were  based  on  a  complete  review  of  the 
applicant’s entire selection record, assessing the whole person 
factors  such  as  job  performance  and  responsibility,  depth  and 
breadth  of  experience,  leadership,  academic  and  professional 
military  education  and  distinction  when  rendering  their 
decision.    The  board  reviewed  the  applicant’s  record  and 
selected him to be retained on active duty. 
 
The applicant contends he was not aware he could write a letter 
to the board.  However, the PSDM 11-21, was provided to eligible 
officers  with  instructions  attached.    It  clearly  states  that 
officers meeting the board have the option to submit a letter to 
the  board  president  addressing  any  matter  of  record  concerning 
them that they believe warrants consideration.   
 
The applicant stated, in a separate e-mail, that he received the 
instructions  and  acknowledged  that  attachment  8  of  the  PDSM 
addresses  writing  letters  to  the  board.    The  applicant  should 
have taken the opportunity to address the RIF board prior to its 
convening, not after the results were released.   
 
The  complete  DPSOO  evaluation,  with  attachments,  is  at 
Exhibit B. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
A  copy  of  the  Air  Force  evaluation  was  forwarded  to  the 
applicant  on  10  February  2012,  for  review  and  comment  within 
30 days (Exhibit C).  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  an  error  or  injustice.    We  took 
notice of the applicant's complete submission and the available 
evidence  of  record  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  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.
