RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF: 			DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-01473

						COUNSEL:  NONE

						HEARING DESIRED:  NO 



APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her Enlisted Performance Report (EPR) rendered for the period 
27 Sep 12 through 26 Sep 13, be replaced in her permanent 
evaluation record by the revised EPR signed 15 Oct 13.


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

Her EPR was uploaded in error, her rater could not explain why 
the incorrect EPR was submitted after the corrected EPR had 
already been signed.  Also, she disagreed with her report due to 
the mark down in Section III Block 2, which is why no signature 
is reflected.

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant initially entered the Regular Air Force on 
4 Jan 93.

On 31 Aug 14, the applicant was furnished an honorable 
discharge, and was credited with 21 years, 7 months, and 27 days 
of active service.

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are 
contained in the memorandum prepared by the Air Force office of 
primary responsibility (OPR), which is attached at Exhibit C.    


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIDE recommends denial indicating there is no evidence 
of an error or an injustice.  The applicant has not exhausted 
all administrative avenues of relief by first filing an appeal 
through the Evaluation Reports Appeal Board (ERAB) under the 
provisions of AFI 36-2406.  DPSIDE recommends the applicant 
submit a new AF Form 948, Application for Correction/Removal of 
Evaluation Records, with all required supporting documentation, 
through the vMPF/ Evaluation Appeals found under the Most 
Popular Applications.  If the administrative appeal is not 
successful, the applicant may resubmit the DD Form 149, 
Application for Correction of Military Records, and the results 
of the ERAB administrative review, to SAF/MRBR for processing 
to the AFBCMR.   

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPDIDE evaluation is at Exhibit C.


APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

In response, the applicant reiterates that she would like the 
EPR replaced in her official military record because of the 
verbiage used in the report.

The applicant’s complete response is at Exhibit E. 


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 an error or injustice.  We note the 
comments of the Air Force office of primary responsibility (OPR) 
indicating the applicant has not exhausted her administrative 
remedies by appealing the contested EPR through the ERAB.  
However, in view of the fact the applicant has retired since the 
OPR advisory was rendered in this case, said avenue of relief is 
no longer available to the applicant.  Accordingly, she has 
exhausted her administrative remedies and her request is ripe 
for adjudication at this level.  After a thorough review of the 
evidence of record and the applicant’s complete submission, we 
are not convinced that corrective action is warranted.  In this 
respect, we note the applicant has provided a signed EPR 
rendered for the same period as the contested report.  Although 
the contested EPR reflects differing verbiage, they have the 
same overall rating of “Truly among the Best (5)”.  In view of 
the fact that the changes were minor and the rating or comments 
were not negative we could find no reason to believe the EPR was 
not accurate as filed.  Therefore, in the absence of evidence to 
the contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting the 
requested relief.





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.

Number BC-2014-01473 in Executive Session on 18 Jun 15, under 
the provisions of AFI 36-2603:
