AFBCMR request was not submitted in accordance with ANGI 36-

provide a signed memorandum outlining the facts of the
situation, his desires, the unit commanders and Force Support
Squadron (FSS) superintendents (or designated representatives)
comments and recommendations for processing to NGB/A1P.
A1PP states that A1P was not given the opportunity to resolve
the applicants request prior to submitting to the AFBCMR.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the
applicant on 31 Mar 13, for review and comment within 30 days
(Exhibit E). As of this date, no response has been received by
this office.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The applicant has not 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 an error. The applicant has not
provided evidence of actions on his part to obtain the relief he
seeks through the proper administrative channels. The AFBCMR
process is not intended as a substitute for the proper
utilization of established channels, such as the local Force
Support Squadron for the type of correction he seeks. Until
such time as he has exhausted all available administrative
remedies, we find no basis to recommend granting the relief
requested.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; the
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this
application.
