RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2013-03610

			COUNSEL:  NONE

			HEARING DESIRED:  YES

________________________________________________________________

THE APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

1.  His original Promotion Recommendation Form (PRF) that met 
the Calendar Year 2011B (CY11B) Line and Health Professions 
Lieutenant Colonel Promotion Board be replaced with a substitute 
PRF. 

2.  The corrected record be considered by a Special Selection 
Board (SSB).

________________________________________________________________

THE APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His PRF did not sufficiently reflect his level of 
accomplishments and was not a true and accurate representation 
of his actual record of achievement.  The substitute PRF 
contains substantive additions to his record of performance 
which were previously unknown and not accounted for in the 
original PRF.

The unintentional oversights materially altered and unduly 
influenced the adjudication processes used in making assessments 
and determining rankings within the wing.

In support of his appeal, the applicant provides a letter of 
support from his former commander and a substitute PRF for the 
CY11B promotion board.

The applicant complete submission, with attachments, is at 
Exhibit A.

________________________________________________________________

2406, Officer and Enlisted Evaluation System, paragraph 10.3.3., 
the applicant provided a substitute report signed by the 
original Senior Rater.  The facts being presented to the Board

(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 error or injustice warranting 
corrective action.  Having carefully reviewed this application, 
we agree with the recommendation of the Air Force office of 
primary responsibility and adopt the rationale expressed as the 
basis for our decision that the applicant has been the victim of 
either an error or an injustice. Therefore, we recommend the 
applicant’s record be corrected to the extent indicated below.

4.  The applicant's case is adequately documented and it has not 
been shown that a personal appearance with or without counsel will 
materially add to our understanding of the issues involved.  
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably considered.

________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air 
Force relating to APPLICANT, be corrected to show that the AF 
Form 709, Promotion Recommendation Form (PRF), prepared for the 
Calendar Year 2011B (CY11B) Line and Health Professions 
Lieutenant Colonel Promotion Board be  declared void and removed 
from his records and the attached PRF, reflecting in Section IV, 
Promotion Recommendation, “#9 of 14 eligible;…” and in Section 
IX, Overall Recommendation, “Definitely Promote," be accepted 
for file in its place.  

It is further recommended that his record, to include the 
attached PRF, be considered for promotion to the grade of 
lieutenant colonel by a Special Selection Board for the CY11B 
Line and Health Professions Lieutenant Colonel Promotion Board.
