2. The applicant requests, in effect, promotion consideration to colonel under 1994 and 1995 criteria. He submits a letter dated 30 January 1997 from the Office of Promotions, Reserve Components, Total Army Personnel Command informing him that his record was omitted from the 1994 and 1995 Reserve Components Selections Boards; therefore, he has a basis for consideration under 1994 and 1995 criteria by a Standby Advisory Board (STAB), and a copy of his records in support of his application.
3. The applicant’s military records show that he was appointed in the Reserve from the Reserve Officers Training Corps, as a second lieutenant effective 5 August 1971.
4. He attained the rank of lieutenant colonel effective 12 August 1990.
5. 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 colonel by a STAB under 1994 and 1995 criteria.
6. He was erroneously not considered for promotion to colonel by the 1994 and 1995 Reserve Components Selection Boards.
7. Current promotion policy specifies that promotion reconsideration by a STAB 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 1994 and 1995 promotion boards and should now be submitted for appropriate STAB 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 STAB’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 therefor, 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 not selected, the applicant be so notified.
