COUNSEL: NO
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His physical fitness test (PFT) be deleted from his records.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
There was a breakdown in communication and he was misinformed
about the PFT process that led to an unsatisfactory score.
In support of his request, the applicant provides of a copy of a
letter of support.
The applicants complete submission, with attachment, is at
Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in
the grade of staff sergeant (E-5).
AFPC/DPSIMC sent a letter to the applicant requesting additional
supporting documentation to substantiate his claim.
Specifically, they asked for a copy of his paid travel voucher to
validate when he returned from his deployment and a copy of his
42-day exemption requested by his Unit Fitness Program Manager
(UFPM) and the disapproval letter from the 55 FSS Fitness
Assessment Cell (55 FSS/FAC).
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial. DPSIM states the applicant
returned from his deployment on 30 Sep 10 and completed his
fitness assessment on 6 Oct 10. During the test the applicant
became ill and was unable to complete the test. The UFPM
informed the applicant that he was eligible for the 42-day
exemption due to deployment. THE UFPM submitted a request to the
55 FSS/FAC; however, the request was disapproved. Furthermore,
DPSIMs request for additional information to support the
applicants request was not received. DPSIM notes that IAW the
governing regulations the applicant has the burden of providing
sufficient evidence of probable material error or injustice;
however, no such evidence has been received.
The DPSIM complete evaluation is at Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant
on 17 Jun 11 for review and response within 30 days (Exhibit D).
As of this date, this office has received no response.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing
law or regulations.
2. The application was timely filed.
3. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice. In this
respect, we believe the applicants request for a PFT waiver
should have been approved due to his recent deployment. However,
since the waiver was denied and he became ill after attempting to
complete the test, we believe the fitness test that he took on
6 Oct 10 should be deleted from his records. Therefore, we
recommend that the records be corrected as indicated below.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:
The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force
relating to APPLICANT be corrected to show that his Fitness
Assessment score dated 6 October 2010 was removed from the Air
Force Fitness Management System.
