It includes notification requirements for promotion proprietary actions forwarded to the Secretary of the Air Force for approval. It also contains instructions for special boards, including their authority, conduct, and application procedures.
Special boards consider whether to recommend member, prospective member, or former AF member for appointment, promotion, merit-based reordering, retention, separation, retirement, or transfer to inactive status in a reserve component, for which the member should have been considered but was not considered or was improperly considered by a previously convened board, consistent with 10 U.S.C § 1558. (paragraph 2)
10 USC § 1558 authorizes SecAF to convene Special Boards to consider whether to recommend a member, prospective member, or former member of the Air Force for appointment, enlistment, reenlistment, assignment, promotion, retention, separation, retirement, or transfer to inactive status in a reserve component, for which that person was not considered, or was improperly considered, by a previously convened selection board that should have considered the person. (paragraph 2)
To the maximum extent practicable, a special board replicates the original board, to include composition of the board, procedures, and information furnished to the board. (paragraph 6)
Members, prospective members, and former members of the AF request special board consideration by submitting a DD Form 149. (paragraph 6)
