RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2014-00930
		COUNSEL: NONE
		HEARING DESIRED: YES 


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her AF Form 911, Enlisted Performance Report (MSgt thru CMSgt) 
rendered for the period 11 May 11 thru 10 May 12, be voided and 
replaced with an EPR that reflects fair and earned markings. 


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

Her AF Form 911, section III, block 6, Leadership/Team 
Building/Followership/Mentorship should be marked “clearly 
exceeds” versus “above average” due to the blatant disparity in 
markings on performance reports within her command.

Accolades earned during the contested reporting period do not 
correlate with the marking received and no differing feedback was 
offered to support the marking.  

In support of her requests, the applicant provides a personal 
statement, copies of her AF Forms 911, email communiques’, letters 
of support and various other documents associated with her 
requests.

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at 
Exhibit A.


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving on active duty in the grade of 
senior master sergeant. 

On 19 Dec 14, the applicant was advised that the AFBCMR is the 
highest administrative level of appeal in the Air Force and that 
she should exhaust all other available avenues of relief prior to 
seeking relief through the AFBCMR.  


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIDE recommends denial and states, in part, that the 
applicant has not exhausted avenues of administrative relief.  In 
this respect, the applicant needs to submit an AF Form 948, 
Application for Correction/Removal of Evaluation Reports, with all 
required supporting documentation, through the vMPF/Evaluation 
Appeals found under the Most Popular Applications.  
The complete DPSIDE 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 19 Dec 14, for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D).  
As of this date, this office has not received a response. 


THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1.  The application was timely filed.

2.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice.  In this respect, 
we note this Board is the highest level of administrative appeal 
within the Air Force.  As such, an applicant must first exhaust 
all available avenues of administrative relief provided by 
existing law or regulations prior to seeking relief before this 
Board, as required by the governing Air Force Instruction.  The 
Air Force office of primary responsibility has reviewed this 
application and indicated there is an available avenue of possible 
administrative relief the applicant has not exhausted.  In view of 
this, we find that consideration of the applicant’s appeal by this 
Board is not appropriate at this time.  Therefore, the applicant 
is advised that if she is not successful in obtaining the relief 
she seeks through available administrative channels, she may then 
consider resubmitting her appeal to this Board.

3.  The applicant's case is adequately documented and it has not 
been shown that a personal appearance with or without counsel will 
materially add to the Board's understanding of the issues 
involved. Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably 
considered.


THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified that she has not exhausted all available 
avenues of administrative relief prior to submitting her 
application to the BCMR; and the application will only be 
reconsidered upon exhausting all subordinate avenues of 
administrative relief.
