AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2010-00139 

 INDEX CODE: 111.05 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: YES 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

The AF Forms 910, Enlisted Performance Reports (EPRs), closing on 
15 Jul 08 and 7 Apr 09, be voided and removed from his records. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He was told that the overall ratings of “2” on both reports were 
the result of his failure of the physical test (PT). He checked 
both the fitness and promotion regulations and could not find 
anything that stated failing his PT would result in an automatic 
“2” rating. 

 

In support of the appeal, the applicant provides copies of his 
AF Form 910, and extracts from his medical records. 

 

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

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

HQ AFPC/DPSIDEP recommends denial. DPSIDEP indicates the 
applicant did submit some medical documentation; however, unless 
he is exempt from all phases of the PT as determined by medical 
authorities, the exemption block is not marked. In cases where 
the individual may be exempt in one or more areas of PT, the 
score is adjusted based only on the areas the applicant was 
actually allowed to perform. Therefore, the medical 
documentation does not substantiate that the EPRs were inaccurate 
or unjust. 

 

The complete AFPC/DPSIDEP evaluation is at Exhibit C. 

 

HQ AFPC/DPSOE recommends denial. DPSOE indicates the applicant 
did not meet Air Force fitness standards during either reporting 
period. Even if the overall ratings were upgraded, the reports 
would remain referrals. DPSOE agrees with the recommendation of 
AFPC/DPSIDEP, as removing the EPRs in their entirety would render 
the applicant eligible for promotion consideration when, in fact, 
he was not based on his fitness failure. 

 

The complete AFPC/DPSOE evaluation is at Exhibit D.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

Copies of the Air Force evaluations were forwarded to the 
applicant on 4 Jun 10, for review and comment within 30 days. As 
of this date, no response has been received by this office 
(Exhibit E). 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 

 

1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing 
law or regulations. 

 

2. The application was timely filed. 

 


3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice. We took notice 
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of 
the case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation 
of the Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt their 
rationale as the basis for our conclusion the applicant has not 
been the victim of an error or injustice. We note the applicant 
has not provided sufficient evidence to substantiate that he was 
exempt from the PT during the periods of the referral EPRs. 
Should he provide such evidence, the Board would be willing to 
reconsider his request. In view of the above and in the absence 
of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend 
granting the relief sought in this application. 

 

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 DETERMINES THAT: 

 

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice; that the 
application was denied without a personal appearance; and that 
the application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of 
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this 
application.
