The Board considered the following evidence:

THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST, STATEMENT, AND EVIDENCE:
1. The applicant requests correction of his military records to show that he was promoted to chief warrant officer two with a date of rank of 15 April 2007.
2. The applicant states that his commander intended to promote him on 15 April 2007. He further states that he had completed all requirements for promotion on 15 April 2007; that he provided all documents on time; and that he had no suspension of personnel actions (FLAG).
3. The applicant provides copies of his Service School Academic Evaluation Report for the Warrant Officer Basic Course, Certificate of Training and Diploma for the AH-64A Aviator Qualification Course, Army Physical Fitness Test Scorecard, and page 14 of his Personnel Qualification Record.
CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:
1. On 15 April 2005, the applicant was appointed a Reserve Commissioned Officer of the Army in the rank of warrant officer one, pay grade W1. Upon acceptance of this appointment he was assigned for duty with the South Carolina Army National Guard as an aviator.
2. The applicant successfully completed the Warrant Officer Basic Course on
9 March 2006.
3. On 25 February 2007, the applicant passed the Army Physical Fitness Test.
4. Special Orders Number 218 AR, National Guard Bureau, dated 10 September 2007, extended Federal recognition to the applicant for the purpose of promotion to chief warrant officer two effective 1 August 2007. This order shows that he was a member of Company B, 1st Battalion, 151st Aviation Regiment, in South Carolina.
5. National Guard Regulation 600-101 (Warrant Officers-Federal Recognition and Related Personnel Actions) provides, in pertinent part, that the promotion of warrant officers in the Army National Guard is a function of the State. All warrant officers recommended for promotion must be fully qualified under the terms of this regulation. A warrant officer one must complete a minimum of 2 years service for promotion to chief warrant officer two; have completed the Warrant Officer Basic Course; and have passed an Army Physical fitness test within
12 months of the effective date of promotion. It further provides that promotions will be accomplished only when an appropriate position vacancy exists in the unit.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
1. The evidence clearly shows that the applicant was appointed as a warrant officer one on 15 April 2005 and met the time in service requirement for promotion to chief warrant officer two effective 15 April 2007. However, there is no available evidence showing when he was placed in a position at the higher grade.
2. The applicant has not provided substantiating evidence showing that the commander intended to promote him on 15 April 2007, or that he had met all the requirements for promotion on 15 April 2007.
3. In view of the above, the applicant's request should be denied.
