5. The applicant appealed his removal from the promotion list. On 20 March 2003, PERSCOM Training Analysis Management Branch advised the applicant's command that the Headquarters Department of the Army (HQDA) Reinstatement Panel had determined that the applicant's ANCOC eligibility should be reinstated based on their determination that his denial of enrollment for being overweight was due to inconsistencies in the Army Taping Test. The applicant was also advised that any further requests for corrective actions had to be forwarded to the Army Board for Correction of Military Records (ABCMR) for resolution.
8. The evidence of record shows that, on 28 March 2003, the PERSCOM Enlisted Promotions Branch informed the applicant that his name had been reinstated to the SFC Promotion Selection List and the ANCOC Selection List.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
1. The applicant was conditionally promoted to SFC/E-7 on 1 January 2002 with the understanding that he must attend and complete the ANCOC.
2. The applicant was selected to attend Phase II, ANCOC; however, he was not allowed to enroll because he failed to meet the weight standards due to inconsistencies in the Taping Test.
3. The applicant was administratively removed from the CY2001 SFC Promotion List on 26 February 2003.
4. The HQDA NCO Education System (NCOES) Reinstatement Panel reviewed the applicant's records and reinstated his ANCOC eligibility due to inconsistencies in the Taping Test.
5. The applicant was advised on 28 March 2003 that his name had been reinstated to the Promotion Selection List and that promotion orders would be published in the next Promotion Orders Booklet. He was advised that his promotion was linked to his successful completion of the ANCOC and that he should attend and complete it as soon as possible.
6. The evidence of record shows the applicant was reinstated on the SFC Promotion Selection List and was subsequently promoted.
7. The applicant has not shown that the subject order has served to harm him in any way.
8. Deleting the subject order from the applicant's records would create a void in his record with no explanation of the circumstances that caused him to be issued two separate promotion orders or that caused him to be denied enrollment in Phase II, ANCOC.
9. In view of the foregoing facts and circumstances in this case, there is insufficient evidence to support the removal of the subject order revoking the applicant's conditional promotion and removing his name from the CY2001 Promotion List.

In February 2002, the applicant submitted a request asking that he be reinstated on the promotion list and that he be scheduled to attend the ANCOC. The Board notes the applicant’s contention that the effective date and date of rank of his promotion to SFC/E-7 should be restored to 8 January 2000, because the revocation of this promotion was based on an unverified and flawed body fat measurement that resulted in his unjustly being denied enrollment in the ANCOC, and it finds this claim has...

The Army's ANCOC general attendance policy, outlined by the NCOES branch at the Army's personnel center, states that Soldiers who, on or after 1 October 1993, accept a conditional promotion, and who are subsequently denied enrollment, declared a no-show, become academic failures, or otherwise do not meet graduation requirements, will have their promotions revoked and will be administratively removed from the centralized promotion list. Army Regulation established the policy that if a...

Kenneth L. Wright | |Member | The Board considered the following evidence: Exhibit A - Application for correction of military records. The Board presumes, and there is no evidence to show otherwise, that the ANCOC personnel had no reason to mistape him. Given that his two unit tape measurements were so close to the maximum and given his considerable weight gain with insufficient evidence that he could not exercise or diet more, it appears that USAHRC made a reasonable decision not to...

However, the applicant requests that the underlying medical reason that caused this incident, his determination to recover and attend ANCOC, his past performance, the recommendations of his chain of command, and the PERSCOM decision to reinstate him to the ANCOC be considered; and on this basis, his promotion date and DOR to SFC/E-7 should be changed to the original date of 1 February 2000. On 15 May 2001, the applicant completed the ANCOC requirements and his promotion to SFC/E-7,...

He stated that after reviewing the applicant's December 2000 body fat content worksheet and his height and weight data dating back to February 1999, evaluation reports, and related medical documentation, he believed that his weight gain of approximately 18 pounds was directly related to his hernia, the repair surgery, and his physical inability to conduct a rigorous fitness regime from December 2000 through October 2001. Therefore, the applicant's record should be corrected to show that he...

The applicant states that his command did not adhere to Army Regulation 600-8-19 (Enlisted Promotions and Reductions) when they removed him from the promotion list by not documenting and justifying his reduction or giving him the proper counseling on the basis of his removal. He stated that his recommendation for removal from the promotion list for not meeting weight requirements was not within the time prescribed in Army Regulation 600-9 (The Army Weight Control Program), which states a...

The DA Forms 5501 reflect her record of body fat measurements as: weight 190 lbs. She informed them that it had been determined that the unit’s scale was measuring weight 8 lbs. Meeting the Army's weight and body fat standards is an individual responsibility and on this point alone the applicant's request can be denied.

On 15 August 1997, the US Army Total Army Personnel Command (PERSCOM) notified the applicant that based on AR 600-8-19, paragraph 4-18 as superseded by Interim Change 101, his name had been administratively removed from the list and his promotion to SFC revoked. DISCUSSION : Considering all the evidence, allegations, and information presented by the applicant, together with the evidence of record, applicable law and regulations, and advisory opinion, it is concluded: When the applicant was...

This policy stated that soldiers, who have not yet attended ANCOC prior to their effective date of promotion to SFC, would be promoted "conditionally." The evidence of record shows that the applicant was administered an APFT on 11 April 2000, for preenrollment at ANCOC and failed the push-up event, which precluded him from attending ANCOC. The applicant's case was reviewed by the USAR AGR Enlisted Reduction Panel, which determined that the applicant should be reduced in rank for failing to...

A fifth measurement was taken by the unit weight control NCO on 28 February 2001, which had resulted in a determination that the applicant met the body fat standard. The evidence of record confirms that the applicant was denied attendance at the ANCOC based on his being under a FLAG action, as a result of his being in an overweight status on 4 January 2001, the scheduled date of his ANCOC class. Also, on 28 February 2001, when the unit weight control NCO determined he met the weight...
