IN THE MATTER OF				DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2016-04925

							COUNSEL: 

							HEARING: NO 

APPLICANT’S REQUEST.  His 2008 and 2011 referral Officer Performance Reports (OPR) be corrected to reflect non-referral status, due to new policy requiring mandatory referral for fitness failure.

APPLICANT’S CONTENTION.  His fitness scores were not recorded by the deadline due to lack of staffing in 2008 and fitness scoring issue in 2011.  His raters were forced to give him a referral OPR under the old policy.  The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.

STATEMENT OF FACTS.  The applicant is currently serving as a captain in the Air Force Reserve, with an indefinite obligation.  For more information, see the excerpt of the applicant’s record at Exhibit B and the advisory at Exhibit C.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION.  AFPC/DP2SPE recommends denial.  The complete advisory is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT’S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION.  The board sent a copy of the Air Force evaluation to the applicant on 18 Jan 18 for comment (Exhibit D), but has received no response. 

THE BOARD CONCLUDES:

1.  The application was timely filed.

2.  The applicant exhausted all available avenues of non-judicial relief before applying to the Board.

3.  After thoroughly reviewing all Exhibits, it is the Board’s opinion that the applicant is not the victim of an injustice.  The Board concurs with AFPC/DP2SPE and finds that a preponderance of the evidence does not substantiate the applicant’s contentions.  

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS:  The APPLICANT be informed that the evidence did not demonstrate material error or injustice; the application was denied without a personal appearance; and the application will only be reconsidered upon receipt of relevant evidence not already considered by the board.
