AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

APFC/DPSOO recommends approval. The applicant met and was 
nonselected for retention by the Calendar Year (CY) 11E RIF 
Board which convened on 19 Sep 11, and was separated from active 
duty on 1 Mar 12. Based upon a correction to his records, he 
met the L0211E Reduction-in-Force (RIF) Special Selection Board 
and was selected for retention. Based upon the applicant’s 
date of rank (DOR) of 28 May 07, he would have been eligible for 
the CY11D Major Central Selection Board (CSB) which convened on 
5 Dec 11. The applicant was ineligible for promotion based upon 
his date of separation of 1 Mar 12. If the applicant is 
returned to active duty he will meet the CY14 Major CSB as an 



in-the-zone eligible. We recommend any nonselections for 
promotion to the grade of major prior to receiving two Officer 
Performance Reports (OPRs) with at least 250 days of supervision 
after returning to active duty, in the grade of captain, be set 
aside. 

 

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSOO evaluation is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 14 Dec 12 for review and comment within 30 days. 
As of this date, no response has been received by this office 
(Exhibit D). 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 

 

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

 

2. The application was timely filed. 

 

3. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice. We took 
notice of the applicant’s complete submission in judging the 
merits of the case and agree with the opinion and recommendation 
of the Air Force office of primary responsibility (OPR) and 
adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion the 
applicant’s request be granted. While we note the 
recommendation by AFPC/DPSOO that any nonselections for 
promotion to the grade of major prior to the applicant receiving 
two Officer Performance Reports (OPRs) after returning to active 
duty be set aside, be believe it more appropriate to set aside 
any nonselections for promotion to the grade prior to the 
applicant having three OPRs after returning to active duty. 
Therefore, we recommend his records be corrected as indicate 
below. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT: 

 

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air 
Force relating to the APPLICANT be corrected to show that: 

 

 a. He was not released from active duty on 1 March 2012, 
but on that date continued to serve on extended active duty and 
was ordered permanent change of station (PCS) to his home of 
record or home of selection pending further orders. 



 

 b. Any nonselections for promotion to the grade of major 
prior to his having three Officer Performance Reports (OPRs) on 
file closing out after 1 March 2012, each with a minimum of 250 
days of supervision in the grade of captain, will be set aside.
