FY15 AC MSG Board Removed as Eligible - Glitch? Board canceled?

CW2 Private RallyPoint Member — Mon, 22 Dec 2014 19:33:09 -0500

Just about every single SFC eligible this year got this email from HRC today and then HRC wasn't around to answer phone calls as to why, so I'm hoping someone here has insight. Just FYI, I had already verified my record. And all of us meet all requirements (TIS, TIG, SSD complete, SLC complete, etc).

Sir/Ma'am,

As verified by the last four digits of your Social Security Number ending in XXXX, you have been removed as a candidate from the FY 15 AC MSG BOARD.

Enlisted: Please contact your S1 with any questions.

Needless to say, our S1 has no idea why.

I've seen something like this when the board was cancelled in the past, CW2 Private RallyPoint Member. That could well be the explanation.

I got the same email as well as a lot of other people. I, along with many other people I am sure, would like an answer as to whether or not this is just a glitch or if this is for real.

CW2 Private RallyPoint Member, wow that Sucks, that's NUTS..I am retiring in 9 days and a wake-up. This would have been devastating on my 6th look had I stayed in going on my 26th year 2015. I said 5 was enough personally and 25 years and 3 days was enough. Well stay positive all Future MSGs your time is coming for that look and promotion next year.

I received the same email, I been trying to find out what's going on with no luck, hopefully it's a glitch and not the board being cancelled.

I have been wondering the same damn thing. I have been racking my brain as to why, since HRC added no explanation along with their email. I have been on my board file multiple times, nothing negative in my records, security clearance is good, and SSD4 completed. If anyone finds anything out please let us know, as my HR department wasn't open today

I just got off the phone with HRC Promotions Branch and they said to disregard the email. We are all still eligible for the FY 15 MSG Board. He wouldn't go into detail about why we all received the email but he said to disregard and that "My Board File" would be back up soon!

Per my S-1:

UNCLASSIFIED//NONE

ALCON,

Per HRC, disregard this message. There was a problem with the computer systems and it generated an inaccurate email.

There will be a message published in reference to this issue.

Please pass along, thank you

My S1 verified with HRC Promotions Branch that it was an "erroneous email." This is from the My Board File (Official) Facebook Page:

"DO NOT PANIC..there was a glitch in the system and an erroneous email went out saying you were deleted from the MSG. Please disregard the email."

I am sure that there will be MTF through official channels.

A message came out saying it was a mishap and no one was removed.

It was a computer generated error sent to everyone. I was told by hrc to disregard the message.

It was a script error in the coding.
