Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph --  Biomedical sciences corps lieutenant colonels originally slated to meet the June 16 enhanced selective early retirement board will not meet the board, Air Force Personnel Center officials said today.

ESERB is one of several fiscal year 2014 force management programs that have been or will be implemented during FY14 to help achieve manpower and force structure goals.

BSC lieutenant colonels will not meet the FY14 board because Air Force ongoing voluntary separation and retirement programs have achieved established goals in that career field and grade, said Lt. Col. Rick Garcia, AFPC retirements and separations branch chief. As a result, senior raters are not required to prepare retention recommendations forms for these officers.

Officers who are still scheduled to meet the board include active duty, retirement-eligible majors in the line of the Air Force, nurse corps, BSC and medical service corps.

For those officers, senior raters as of the Jan. 17, 2014 accountability date will prepare a retention recommendation form for each of their eligible officers, and will provide those officers with completed copies of their RRFs by May 16.

Eligible officers who do not want to meet the retention board can apply for voluntary FM programs, and if approved must retire by Jan. 1, 2015. Voluntary retirement applications are due to AFPC by May 16.
