RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-01523
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His AF Form 911, Enlisted Performance Report (EPR), ending
30 Sep 12, be replaced with a new report.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Because he was deployed at the time the EPR was being prepared, he
did not have the opportunity to review the content prior to it
being finalized. This led to erroneous content and duplicate
information from the previous reporting period being approved.
His chain of command has corrected the EPR and he desires the
corrected EPR be placed into his official military personnel
record.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is a member of the Regular Air Force, currently
serving in the grade of master sergeant (E-7).
On 24 Jan 13, the EPR the applicant desires to replace was signed
by his flight superintendent and the ratees acknowledgement block
indicates the member is unable to sign.
On 23 Jul 14, according to information provided by the applicant,
the applicant acknowledged receipt of the corrected EPR that is
signed by the appropriate members of his chain of command.
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 because the applicant has not
exhausted all available avenues of administrative relief prior to
seeking correction of their military records. AFI 36-2603, Air
Force Board for Correction of Military Records (AFBCMR), states
the AFBCMR is the highest level of administrative appeal within
the Department of the Air Force and will not consider a case until
all avenues of administrative relief have been exhausted. It is
recommended the applicant submit a new 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 section. If the
administrative appeal is not successful, the applicant may
resubmit the DD Form 149 and the results of the Evaluation Review
Appeals Board (ERAB) review to the AFBCMR.
A complete copy of the AFPC/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 27 Jan 15 for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D).
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 error or injustice. In this respect,
we note this Board is the highest administrative level of 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
administrative relief the applicant has not first pursued. In
view of this, we find this application is not ripe for
adjudication at this level as there exists a subordinate level of
appeal that has not first been depleted. Therefore, in view of
the above, we find no basis to recommend granting the relief
sought in this application.
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.
