RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-04082 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

He be continued in the Air Force Reserve. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He was deferred for promotion while assigned to the non-
participating Individual Ready Reserve (IRR). After being 
reassigned to a participating unit, he met his second major 
promotion board (less than a year later). His record only showed 
that he completed some Unit Training Assembly’s (UTAs) and his 
annual tour; however, he used that time to complete the necessary 
security clearance paperwork and took care of other issues that 
made his status current. He attempted to be placed on orders 
that were specific to his job; however, both times the orders 
were unfunded because of budget constraints. He wishes to be 
continued in order to prove his potential as a participating 
member. 

 

His complete submission is at Exhibit A. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant was discharged from the Air Force Reserve (AFR) on 
31 Mar 06. 

 

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are 
contained in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of the 
Air Force, which is at Exhibit B. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

ARPC/PB recommends denial. The applicant was considered and not 
selected by the CY11 Nonparticipating Reserve Major Promotion 
Selection Board (W0411A, 31 Jan 11) while he was assigned to the 
Nonaffiliated Nonparticipating Ready Personnel Section (NNRPS), 


and the CY12 Participating Reserve Major Promotion Selection 
Board (V0421A, 23 Jan 12). 

 

One of the requirements for continuation is that the officer’s 
primary or duty Air Force Specialty (AFS) had to be manned at 
less than 85 percent; however, he was not eligible because the 
32E3 AFSC was not manned at less than 85 percent. 

 

There were no errors in the applicant’s record at the time he was 
considered for promotion. However, rather than be offered 
continuation, the applicant’s record could be corrected to allow 
him to establish a Reserve of the Air Force performance record, 
which will improve his chances for promotion. 

 

The complete PB 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 11 Jan 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 not timely filed; however, it is in the 
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file. 

 

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 Reserve Personnel Center’s office of primary 
responsibility and adopt their rationale as the basis for our 
conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an error 
or injustice. While ARPC/PB suggests partial relief by allowing 
the applicant to establish a performance record which would 
improve his competiveness for promotion; however, we find no 
basis to recommend such relief. In this respect, we note that it 
is more likely than not the reason he was not selected for 
continuation was because his career field was not undermanned at 
the time of his second non-selection for promotion, rather than a 
weak record. Nevertheless, we find no evidence that he has been 
treated any differently than other officers who are similarly 
situated. In accordance with 10 USC 14301, all officers on the 
RASL must be considered for promotion when eligible. Therefore, 
in view of the above and 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.
