RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-01778
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
IN THE MATTER OF:
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
He be promoted to the grade of major with a date of rank (DOR)
of 6 May 06.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
1. His name “slipped through the cracks” during the last
specialty selection board (Sep 11) and he was not considered for
promotion to the grade of major.
2. As a Surgeon General in the Air Force, promotion to the grade
of major is six-years from the date of medical school
graduation. Therefore, according to his squadron commander he
should have been promoted, effective 6 May 06.
In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of a
Single Unit Retrieval Format (SURF).
The applicant's complete submission, with attachment, is at
Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is currently serving on active duty in the grade
of captain.
On 15 Aug 11, the applicant entered active duty (EAD) as a
captain, with a DOR of 6 May 06. Based on his EAD and DOR, he
should have been eligible for the CY11A Major Medical Corps (MC)
Central Selection Board (CSB) which convened on 12 Sep 11.
AFPC/DPSIVP, Accessions and Service Verification Section, has
120 days in which to verify an officer’s service dates once they
enter on active duty. As of 12 Sep 11, the applicant’s service
dates were not verified. Since, they did not know what his
actual DOR would be; they could not build him to a board.
1
On 20 Sep 11, AFPC/DPSIVP verified the applicant’s service
dates.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOO recommends denial. DPSOO states it is not unusual
for Health Professions officers with constructive service credit
who enter active duty within 120 days of a CSB, to be ineligible
to meet a board because their service dates are not verified.
Once verified, if its determined that a board was missed, DPSOO
automatically schedules them for a Special Selection Board (SSB)
for the board that was missed.
Officers who miss CSBs because of unverified service dates are
entitled to SSB consideration for the board they missed. DPSOO
has requested SSB consideration and the applicant will meet an
SSB being held in conjunction with the CY12A Major MC CSB
scheduled to convene on 17 Sep 12. If the applicant is selected
for promotion to major, he will pin-on once the CSB is confirmed
by the Senate, with a DOR and effective date of 6 May 12. He
will be entitled to all back pay and allowances.
Although the promotion opportunity is 100 percent, promotion is
not automatic and the applicant must meet a board.
The complete DPSOO 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 Aug 12 for review and comment within 30 days
(Exhibit C). As of this date, this office has not received a
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. In that regard
we are aware the applicant met an SSB in September 2012 and has
been promoted to major with a DOR of 6 May 2012. Although it
appears the applicant believe he should have been promoted to
2
the grade of major with a DOR of 6 May 2006, he has not provided
evidence that supports such an adjustment to his DOR nor are we
aware of any policy that would warrant changing his DOR to a
date earlier than 6 May 2012. 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.

The applicant was considered and nonselected for promotion to the grade of Lt Col by the CY05A CSB which convened at the Air Force Personnel Center (AFPC) on 6 July 2005. In addition, DPPP recommends denial of the applicant’s request to include his deployment because, although he did exercise his option to write to the board informing them of his change in DOR and his award of the DMSM and GWOT Service Medal prior to the convening of the CY05A Lt Col CSB, he did not address the missing...

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS His first IPZ board should have been the CY2009B CSB based on his commissioning date of 13 May 95. While the applicant contends that his three-year break in service, during which he served in the Air Force Reserve, caused him to be considered IPZ three years earlier than his commissioning year group, reserve officers ordered to active duty maintain their rank and DOR.
