IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-04386 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

1. His Officer Selection Record be corrected to include his 
Officer Performance Report (OPR) rendered for the period of 1 Jun 
10 through 31 May 11. 

 

2. A Special Selection Board (SSB) consider his entire record for 
promotion to the grade of lieutenant colonel (0-5). 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

His OPR did not get signed or processed to be included in his 
records prior to him meeting the Calendar Year 2011 Lieutenant 
Colonel Line of the Air Force Central Selection Board (CY11 Lt 
Col LAF CSB). His supervisor was not available to sign the 
report due to her being on temporary duty from 31 May 11 to 2 Jun 
11, and on leave 3 Jun 11; however, she signed it on the first 
day back from leave on 6 Jun 11. 

 

In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of a 
letter of support from his supervisor and excerpts from his 
personnel records to include his OPRs and awards. 

 

His complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.

major (0-4). He was involuntary separated on 31 Mar 12. 

 

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are 
contained in the letters prepared by the appropriate offices of 
the Air Force, which are at Exhibit B and C.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 


 

AFPC/DPSIDEP defers this case to AFPC/DPSOO for an SSB 
recommendation and/or consideration. The applicant did not file 
an appeal through the Evaluation Reports Appeals Board (ERAB); 
however, since the contested OPR is already on file in both the 
applicant’s Officer Selection Record (OSR) and present in the 
Automated Records Management System (ARMS), there is no action 
required by DPSIDEP at this time. Additionally, although the OPR 
closed out on 31 May 11, the report was not required to be in his 
record until 60 days after the closeout date, or 30 Jul 11. In 
this case, the promotion board convened on 6 Jun 11 and the 
evaluator’s did not sign and finalize the report until 8 Jun 11, 
which was after the board convened. However, there are other 
officers in similar circumstances where the closeout date is 
similar. Unless the OPR is processed with all signatures, the 
OPR cannot be placed into the member’s record. To allow the OPR 
to be included after the board convened would allow the applicant 
an advantage other officers are not afforded. 

 

The complete DPSIDEP evaluation is at Exhibit B. 

 

AFPC/DPSOO recommends denial of the applicant’s request to 
include the 31 May 11 OPR in his OSR and SSB consideration. 
DPSOO notes that the applicant provided a letter of support from 
his supervisor; however, the absence of the report is not an 
error because the report was not required to be on file in his 
OSR until 30 Jul 11. 

 

The complete DPSOO evaluation is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the 
applicant on 10 Feb 12 for review and comment within 30 days. As 
of this date, this office has received no response.

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 

 

1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing 
law or regulations. 

 

2. The application was timely filed. 

 

3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice. We took notice 
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of 
the case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation 
of AFPC/DPSOO and adopt its rationale as the basis for our 
conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an error 


or injustice. Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the 
contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting the relief 
sought in this application. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT: 

 

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that 
the application was denied without a personal appearance; and 
that the application will only be reconsidered upon the 
submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered 
with this application.
