2. The applicant requests reconsideration of his previous application to correct his military records by showing that his staff sergeant (SSG) date of rank (DOR) is 1 March 1997 not 1 May 1997, as determined by a previous Board.
3. The applicant states, in effect, that if his Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT) score had been properly computed, his promotion points would have exceeded the 1 March 1997, Department of the Army cutoff score for his military occupational specialty (MOS), resulting in a DOR of 1 March 1997.
4. The applicant’s 29 July 2002, submission of a request for correction of a previous Board decision is accepted as new evidence that requires Board consideration.
5. The Proceedings of the Board’s 6 June 2002 review of the case (AR2001065239) are incorporated herein by reference as if wholly set forth.
6. Previously considered was an advisory opinion from the Total Army Personnel Command, which advised that the applicant's date of rank should be corrected to 1 May 1997, however, that advice was based on the latest Promotion Point Worksheet in the applicant's official military personnel file at that time.
7. The Promotion Point Worksheet, provided by the applicant, reflects that as of 13 March 1996, he had a total of 728 points. However, if he had been given the proper number of points for his APFT score, he would have had a total of 733 promotion points, which would have exceeded the Department of the Army's 729 point cutoff score for his MOS effective 1 March 1997. A member of the staff of the Board provided a copy of the applicant's Promotion Point Worksheet to the PERSCOM for review. They concurred that the applicant met the criteria for promotion on 1 March 1997.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. After reviewing the evidence previously considered by the Board, and the new evidence the applicant has provided, the Board concludes that his total promotion points on 1 March 1997, exceeded the Department of the Army's cutoff score for his MOS. Therefore, it would be proper to correct his SSG date of rank to 1 March 1997.
2. In view of the foregoing findings and conclusions, correcting the applicant’s records as recommended below would correct an injustice.
RECOMMENDATION:
a. showing that the individual concerned was promoted to the grade of staff sergeant with a DOR and effective date of 1 March 1997;
b. paying to him any monies that may be due as a result of this correction; and
c. making his records available to a Standby Advisory Board for promotion consideration to the grade of sergeant first class.

An APFT scorecard reflects that on 15 November 1995, the applicant received a score of 61 points for a run time of 17:49. The applicant's APFT score should have been 259 instead of 234. The applicant's contention that his APFT bike score was incorrectly entered as a run score which lowered his total promotion point score, which resulted in his not meeting the 1 May 97 promotion cutoff score to staff sergeant, is supported by his records and the PERSCOM advisory opinion.
