RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF: 	DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-02952

 			COUNSEL:  NONE

			HEARING DESIRED:  NOT INDICATED



APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her second deferral for promotion to major and her discharge be 
corrected.


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

Though she was supposed to receive an eligibility notification 
letter for the major’s board, it was not until she received non-
selection to major notification that she realized she did not 
receive the eligibility notification. 

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 25 Aug 03, the applicant entered the Regular Air Force.

On 4 Feb 10, the applicant separated from active duty and was 
transferred to the Air Force Reserve.  She was credited with 6 
years, 7 months and 10 days of active service.   

On 14 Jan 13 the applicant was considered for promotion by the 
CY13 Nonparticipating Reserve Major Promotion Selection Board.  
She was not selected for major.

On 13 Jan 14 the applicant was considered for promotion by the 
CY14 Nonparticipating Reserve Major Promotion Selection Board.  
She was not selected for major.

On 5 Jun 14, she received notification she was non-selected for 
promotion to major for the second time.  She was informed that 
her mandatory separation date was 1 Dec 14.


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

ARPC/PB recommends denial indicating there is no evidence of an 
error or an injustice.  She was properly considered by the CY13 
and CY14 Nonparticipating Reserve Major Promotion Selection 
Boards in accordance with Title 10 U.S.C., Section 14301.  There 
were no errors in her record as it met both boards.  The 
applicant has provided no evidence that the boards’ 
recommendations were in any way unfair or unjust.  

A notification letter and Officer Pre-selection Brief (OPB) are 
mailed to each nonparticipating candidate’s residence 
approximately four months prior to each promotion board.  We 
cannot confirm if the applicant’s mailing address is correct in 
the Military Personnel Data System or if the applicant actually 
received the notification and OPB.  A board convening notice is 
also posted to the MyPers website announcing each board.  
 
In accordance with AFI 36-2504, Officer Promotion, Continuation 
and Selective Early Removal in the Reserve of the Air Force, 
paragraph 1.7, it is the eligible officer’s responsibility to 
monitor their own eligibility and ensure their selection record 
is correct and up-to-date before the convening of the selection 
board.  

A review of the applicant’s Officer Selection Record (OSR) did 
not reveal any errors in the record at the time it was reviewed 
by each board.  No information was provided to either promotion 
boards that would identify this member, or any other, meeting 
the board as in the promotion zone or above the promotion zone.  

The complete ARPC 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 6 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 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 took 
notice of the applicant’s complete submission in judging the 
merits of the case; however, we agree with the opinion and 
recommendation of the Air Force office of primary responsibility 
(OPR) and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion 
the applicant has not been the victim of an error of injustice.  
Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find 
no basis to recommend granting the requested relief.  

4.  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 our understanding of the issues involved.  
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably 
considered.


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-2014-02952 was considered:

	Exhibit A.  DD Form 149, dated 29 Aug 14, w/atchs.
