RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF: 			DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-02824

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX				COUNSEL:  NONE

					HEARING DESIRED:  NO 



APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

He be promoted to the grade of Lieutenant Colonel (Lt Col) 
effective 18 Sep 65.


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He left active duty to complete college credits; however, he 
remained in the Air Force Reserves and should have been promoted 
to the grade of Lt Col.

In support of his request, the applicant provides a personal 
statement and copies of memorandums.

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 5 Feb 44, the applicant was appointed a second lieutenant in 
the Reserve of the Army.  

According to AF Form 190, USAF Reserve Personnel Record Card – For 
Retention, Promotion and Retirement, dated 5 Aug 60, the applicant 
was promoted to the grade of major, effective 8 Sep 58.

The applicant provides no rationale as to why his failure to 
timely file should be waived in the interest of justice.


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

ARPC/PB recommends denial.  The applicant has not provided 
documentation that he was improperly considered, or there was an 
error in his record which would warrant promotion or Special Board 
consideration.  

The applicant submitted a “Consideration for Permanent Reserve 
Promotion,” dated 15 Apr 65, stating he was considered but not 
recommended for promotion to the grade of Lt Col.

A complete copy of the ARPC/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 3 Jun 15, for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D).  
As of this date, no response has been received by this office.


FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS OF THE BOARD:

After careful consideration of applicant’s request and the 
available evidence of record, we find the application untimely.  
The applicant did not file within three years after the alleged 
error or injustice was discovered as required by Title 10, United 
States Code, Section 1552 and Air Force Instruction 36-2603.  The 
applicant has not shown a plausible reason for the delay in 
filing, and we are not persuaded that the record raises issues of 
error or injustice which require resolution on the merits.  Thus, 
we cannot conclude it would be in the interest of justice to 
excuse the applicant’s failure to file in a timely manner.  


THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The application was not timely filed and it would not be in the 
interest of justice to waive the untimeliness.  It is the decision 
of the Board, therefore, to reject the application as untimely.


The following members of the Board considered AFBCMR Docket Number 
BC-2014-02824 in Executive Session on 7 Jul 15, under the
