         BOARD DATE: 31 January 2002
         DOCKET NUMBER: AR200267313


         I certify that hereinafter is recorded the true and complete record of the proceedings of the Army Board for Correction of Military Records in the case of the above-named individual.

Mr. Carl W. S. Chun Director
Ms. Stephanie Thompkins Analyst


The following members, a quorum, were present:

Mr. Raymond V. O'Connor, Jr. Chairperson
Mr. Elzey J. Arledge, Jr. Member
Ms. Regan K. Smith Member

         The applicant and counsel if any, did not appear before the Board.

         The Board considered the following evidence:

         Exhibit A - Application for correction of military
records
         Exhibit B - Military Personnel Records (including
         advisory opinion, if any)

FINDINGS :

1. The applicant has exhausted or the Board has waived the requirement for exhaustion of all administrative remedies afforded by existing law or regulations.


2. The applicant requests, in effect, promotion consideration to chief warrant officer four (CW4) under 1996 criteria.

3. The applicant states that his record was omitted through no fault of his own. He also states that his records are maintained in the promotions office.

4. Based upon review of the applicant’s records by the Office of Promotions, Reserve Components, it was determined the applicant was erroneously not considered and is eligible for consideration for promotion to CW4 by a special selection board (SSB) under 1996 criteria.

5. He was erroneously not considered for promotion to CW4 by the 1996 Reserve Components Selection Board.

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 CW4 by the 1996 promotion board and should now be submitted for appropriate SSB consideration for this purpose.

2. In view of the foregoing findings and conclusions, it would be appropriate to correct the applicant’s records 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 CW4.

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 has been separated, his record 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; 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 records to show that the gap in his officer evaluation reports, from the dates of his now-voided discharge or 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 discharge or transfer be expunged from his records.

4. That if not selected, the applicant be so notified.
