RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF: 				DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-03492

 						COUNSEL:  NONE

						HEARING DESIRED:  NO 



APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Officer Performance Report (OPR) for the period ending 
31 Jan 14 be corrected to show that the acronym “OCO” denotes 
“Offensive Cyber Operations” instead of “Overseas Contingency 
Operations.”  


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His OPR references “OCO” twice and in both instances are 
intended to be related to offensive cyber activities and not 
overseas operations.  

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in 
the grade of major (O-4).  


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSID recommends denial.  The applicant has not exhausted 
all available avenues of administrative relief prior to seeking 
correction of his military records.  

The AFBCMR is the highest level of administrative appeal within 
the Department of the Air Force.  Under the provisions of AFI 
36-2603, Air Force Board for Correction of Military Records, the 
AFBCMR will not consider a case until all avenues of 
administrative relief have been exhausted.  DPSID recommends the 
applicant submit an AF Form 948, Application for 
Correction/Removal of Evaluation Reports, with all required 
supporting documentation as required by AFI 36-2406, Officer and 
Enlisted Evaluation Systems, through the virtual Military 
Personnel Flight (vMPF) Evaluation Appeals found under the Most 
Popular Applications.  If the administrative appeal is not 
successful, the applicant may resubmit his DD Form 149, 
Application for Correction of Military Records Under the 
Provisions of Title 10, U.S. Code, Section 1552, and the results 
of the Evaluation Report Appeals Board (ERAB) to the AFBCMR.  

A complete copy of the DPSID evaluation is at Exhibit B.


APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 25 Mar 15 for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit C).  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 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 that he has not exhausted all 
available avenues of administrative relief prior to submitting 
his application to the AFBCMR; and the application will only be 
reconsidered upon exhausting all subordinate avenues of 
administrative relief.
