ADDENDUM TO RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2019-00266-2

	COUNSEL:  NONE

	HEARING REQUESTED:  NO

APPLICANT’S REQUEST

The Board reconsider his request to be promoted to the grade of master sergeant (E-7).

RESUME OF THE CASE

The applicant is a retired Air Force Reserve technical sergeant (E-6), with credit for 11 years, 8 months, and 23 days of active service.  

On 13 Jun 19, the Board considered and denied his request to be promoted to the grade of master sergeant (E-7), finding the prior request was not timely submitted.  For an accounting of the applicant’s original request and the rationale of the earlier decision, see the AFBCMR Letter and Record of Proceedings, with Exhibits A-D, at Exhibit E.

On 17 Sep 19, the applicant requested reconsideration of his request to be promoted to master sergeant (E-7).  He again contends a few months after returning from deployment he went to the new wing commander regarding his promotion.  The wing commander referred his case to a Colonel P…. who found out an injustice had occurred and that he should have been promoted.  He was the only one in his unit that met all the requirements for promotion to master sergeant.  

The applicant provided as new evidence two email statements dated 15 Feb 19 and 8 Mar 19.

The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit F.

FINDINGS AND CONCLUSION

After reviewing all Exhibits, the Board remains unconvinced the evidence presented demonstrates an error or injustice.  The Board finds a preponderance of the evidence, to include additional documentation provided by the applicant, does not substantiate the applicant’s contentions.  Therefore, the Board recommends against correcting the applicant’s records.

RECOMMENDATION

The Board recommends informing the applicant the evidence did not demonstrate material error or injustice, and the Board will reconsider the application only upon receipt of relevant evidence not already presented.
