The applicant states her official date of rank (DOR) to LTC was 1 November 2010. The evidence of record shows she was placed on the retired list as a MAJ because she completed less than the required 3 year service obligation in the rank of LTC. As a result, the Board recommends denial of so much of the application that pertains to correcting her retirement orders to show her rank as LTC, placing her on the retired list as an LTC, or correcting her DD Form 214 to show her rank as LTC.
