AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-02952
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
IN THE MATTER OF:
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His second deferral for promotion to the grade of major be
removed from his records and he receive supplemental promotion
consideration.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was unaware of his first deferral for promotion. He believes
it may have occurred during his Individual Ready Reserve (IRR)
status from September 2004 to May 2010. He would like another
opportunity for promotion consideration.
In support of his request, the applicant provides his second
deferral for promotion notification letter.
The applicant’s complete submission, with attachment, is at
Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is a former member of the Air Force Reserves.
Documentation provided by the applicant shows that on 14 March
2012, he was notified of his second deferral for promotion and
his mandatory separation date. He was honorably discharged from
the Reserves on 1 October 2012 in the grade of captain.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
ARPC/PB recommends denial. The applicant was assigned to the IRR
when he was considered and not selected for promotion by the
CY2010 Line and Health Professions Non-Participating Reserve
Major Promotion Board. Members of the IRR are part of the
Reserve Active Status List (RASL), and by law, must be considered
for promotion.
On 2 August 2010, the applicant obtained a participating
assignment and was again part of the RASL. He had to stay on the
RASL for one year following his assignment to be eligible for
promotion consideration. He was considered and not selected by
the CY2012 Line and Non-line Promotion Selection Board. As a
result of his second nonselection, his mandatory separation date
of 1 October 2012 was established.
A review of his record reveals there were no errors at the time
it was reviewed by each promotion board. No information was
provided to the board that would identify him, or any other
member meeting the board as in-the-promotion-zone or above-the-
promotion-zone. Promotion is a competitive process. Board
members use the “whole person concept” in reviewing the entire
Officer Selection Record. A promotion board is the sole
recommending authority, and no feedback is provided by the board
to explain why a member is not recommended to the next higher
grade.
There were no errors in the record as it met the boards. He has
provided no evidence that the board’s recommendations were unfair
or unjust.
The complete PB 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 7 August 2012 for review and comment within 30 days. As of
this date, this office has received no response (Exhibit D).
________________________________________________________________
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. After
thoroughly reviewing the evidence of record and the applicant’s
complete submission, we are not persuaded that the record should
be changed. The applicant’s contentions are duly noted; however,
he has not provided persuasive evidence to override the rationale
provided by the Air Force office of primary responsibility (OPR).
Therefore, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the
OPR and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion that
the applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice.
In the absence of persuasive evidence to the contrary, we find no
2
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.
