RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-02273 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

1. He be considered by a selective continuation board so that he 
can continue his Air Force Reserve career. 

 

2. In his rebuttal submission, the applicant amended his request 
to include that his two non-selections for promotion to the grade 
of major by the Calendar Years 2011 (CY11) and CY12 Major 
Nonparticipating Reserve Promotion Selection Boards be removed 
from his records. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He was passed over for promotion to the grade of major during his 
Inactive Ready Reserve (IRR) status from 2007 – 2012. During his 
time in the IRR he did not have any Officer Performance Reports 
(OPRs) and therefore was passed over for promotion. 

 

On 16 Mar 12, he was gained into the active Reserve, and would 
like to meet a continuation board to continue to serve his 
country. 

 

The applicant's complete submission is at Exhibit A. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant was considered but not selected for promotion by 
the CY11 and CY12 Nonparticipating Reserve Major Promotion 
Selection Boards that convened 31 Jan 11, and 12 Jan 12, 
respectively. 

 

On 1 Oct 12, he was discharged from the Air Force Reserve in the 
grade of captain. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

ARPC/DPT recommends denial of the applicant’s request to meet a 
continuation board. 

 


DPT states that in light of the proposed law change, which will 
render officers assigned to the Nonparticipating Reserve 
ineligible for promotion consideration, the Board may disagree 
with their recommendation and rule in favor of the member. 

 

The complete DPT evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit B. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

In Sep 07, he separated from active duty and entered the IRR. 

 

On 16 Mar 12, he was gained into the active Reserves and after he 
was gained, he was informed that while in the IRR, he met two 
major promotion boards and was passed over. He was sent a letter 
informing him that he would be discharged on 1 Oct 12. 

 

He would like to continue his career in the Air Force Reserve and 
is requesting that both of his nonselections be removed from his 
record. 

 

He never received any information or briefing that he would be 
meeting a promotion board during his time in the IRR. 

 

He has provided a letter of support from his commander. 

 

The applicant's complete response, with attachment, 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 not timely filed; however, it is in the 
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file. 

 

3. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice warranting 
corrective action. After carefully considering the 
recommendation of the Air Force office of primary responsibility, 
and weighing the evidence presented in this case, we are inclined 
to grant the relief requested. The applicant asserts that he was 
not aware that he was being considered for promotion while in the 
Inactive Ready Reserve. Based on the applicant’s submission, to 
include the letter of support submitted in his behalf, we find it 
reasonable to believe the applicant was completely unaware of his 
promotion consideration while in the IRR, since it appears he had 
not received any correspondence from the Air Force Reserve. In 
view of the above, we recommend the applicant’s record be 
corrected to the extent indicated below. 


 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT: 

 

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force 
relating to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that: 

 

a. His name be removed from the list of officers non-
selected for promotion by the Calendar Years 2011 and 2012 
Nonparticipating Reserve Major Promotion Selection Boards. 

 

 b. He was not relieved from his Reserve assignment on 
1 October 2012 and discharged, but on that date, he was continued 
in his Reserve assignment. 

 

It is further recommended that any nonselections for promotion to 
the Reserve grade of Major prior to receiving three Officer 
Performance Reports with at least 250 days supervision, in the 
grade of captain, be set aside.
