RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-04336
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His rank on his DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge
from Active Duty, be corrected to reflect Airman First Class (A1C,
E-3), instead of Airman (Amn, E-2).
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was promoted to the grade of A1C in Aug 14, prior to his
discharge but his DD Form 214 displays his rank as Amn.
The applicants complete submission is at Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
According to the applicants DD Form 4/1, Enlistment/Reenlistment
Document Armed Forces of the United States, on 25 Sep 12, he
enlisted in the Regular Air Force in the grade of Airman Basic
(AB, E-1) for a period of four years.
On 3 Oct 13, the applicant received an Article 15 for driving
while under the influence of alcohol, in violation of Article 111
of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). As a result, his
punishment consisted of reduction to the grade of Amn, 30 days
extra duty and a reprimand.
On 24 May 14, the applicant received a referral Enlisted
Performance Report (EPR), for the period 25 Sep 12 through 24 May
14, as a result of his previous Article 15 action.
On 29 Sep 14, the applicant received an honorable discharge, in
the grade of Amn and was credited with two years and five days of
total active service.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOE recommends denial indicating there is no evidence of an
error or an injustice. The applicant was not eligible for
promotion prior to his separation based on the referral EPR and
provides no supporting documentation in support of his
contention/request.
Based on the applicant's 3 Oct 13, Date of Rank (DOR) to the grade
of Amn, on 3 Aug 14, he would have met TimeIn-Grade (TIG)
requirements for promotion to the grade of AlC (10 months TIG).
However, his referral EPR with a close out date of 24 May 14,
rendered him ineligible for promotion. In accordance with AFI 36-
2502, Airman Promotion/Demotion Programs, Table 1.1, Rule 22,
airmen in grades airman basic through A1C meeting TIG/Time in
Service (TIS)_ promotion requirements can be promoted no earlier
than the close out date of an EPR with a rating of "3" or higher
that is not a referral, if otherwise eligible and approved by the
commander.
The complete DPSOE 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 12 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 applicants 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
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.
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.
