2. The applicant requests, in effect, promotion consideration to colonel under 1996 criteria.
3. The applicant states that through no fault of his own, he was omitted from consideration by the 1996 colonel Reserve Components Selection Board (RCSB).
4. Based upon review of the applicant’s records by the Office of Promotions, Reserve Components, Total Army Personnel Command (PERSCOM), it was determined the applicant was erroneously not considered and is eligible for consideration for promotion to colonel by a special selection board (SSB) under 1996 criteria.
5. He was erroneously not considered for promotion to colonel by the RCSB.
6. Current promotion policy specifies that promotion reconsideration by an SSB may only be based on erroneous non-consideration or material error that existed in the record at the time of consideration.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The applicant’s records were erroneously not considered for promotion to colonel by the 1996 RCSB and should now be submitted for appropriate SSB consideration for this purpose.
2. In view of the foregoing, the applicant’s records should be corrected as recommended below.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. That all of the Department of the Army records related to this case be corrected by submitting the records of the individual concerned to duly constituted SSB’s as deemed appropriate for promotion consideration for colonel.
2. That if selected his records be further corrected by showing he was promoted to the next higher grade on his date of eligibility therefore, as determined by appropriate Departmental officials using the criteria cited, provided he was otherwise qualified and met all other prerequisites for promotion.
3. That if the applicant was separated, his records be further corrected to show:
a. that his discharge or transfer to the Retired Reserve, as applicable, is void, and of no force or effect, and that he was credited with qualifying service for
Reserve retirement for his respective retirement years, from the dates of his now-voided discharge or transfer to the Retired Reserve to the date of his return to the active Reserve;
b. that an adequate explanation be placed in his official personnel files to show that the gap in his officer evaluation reports, from the dates of his now-voided discharge transfer to the Retired Reserve to the date of return to active Reserve status, was not caused by any fault on his part, and to insure that he is not prejudiced thereby in the consideration of any future personnel actions; and
c. that all documents related to his now-voided non-selection for promotion, and his discharge or transfer be expunged from his official military records.
4. That if not selected, the applicant be so notified.
