             RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2013-05456
		
	 	 	COUNSEL:  NONE
		
			HEARING DESIRED:  NO

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

He be promoted to master sergeant.

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He was not promoted to master sergeant and was denied Air 
National Guard technician pay.  He requested to be promoted from 
technical sergeant to master sergeant and was denied by his 
commander.

The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.

________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is a former member of the Air National Guard who 
retired in the grade of technical sergeant.

________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

NGB/A1PP recommends denial.  The application is untimely.  

In accordance with ANGI 36-2502, Promotion of Airmen, paragraph 
1.4, the immediate commander must first recommend the airman for 
promotion.  Meeting the minimum criteria for promotion only 
indicates that the airman can be considered for promotion.  

There is no evidence of an error or injustice with regard to his 
non-selection for promotion to master sergeant.

The complete A1PP evaluation is at Exhibit C.

________________________________________________________________




APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 15 September 2014, for review and comment within 
30 days (Exhibit D).  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 an 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 office of primary responsibility 
and find 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 an 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.

    We note the letters of support from the applicant’s supervisor and commander indicating the applicant’s promotion was unreasonably delayed due to numerous administrative errors and that his DOR should be corrected to 2 April 2011. Taking into consideration the letters of support from the applicant’s chain of command, and the actual promotion recommendation form, we believe the earliest reasonable date to correct the applicant’s DOR would be the date the acting commander signed the promotion...
