RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2011-01345
		COUNSEL:  NONE
		HEARING DESIRED: NO

________________________________________________________________
_

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

The fitness assessment (FA) score she received on 29 December 
2010 be removed from the Air Force Fitness Management System 
(AFFMS).  

________________________________________________________________
_

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

During the run/cardio portion of the physical fitness (PT) test, 
she became ill and left the track.  It is her belief that the 
test should have been terminated at that time.

In support of her request, the applicant provides a copy of her 
AFFMS Individual Test History, AF Form 469, Duty Limiting 
Condition Report, AF Form 422, Notification of Air Force 
Member’s Qualification Status, and a letter addressed to the 43rd 
Medical Squadron/SGGF from her psychologist.  

Her complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in 
the grade of Staff Sergeant (SSgt). 

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application 
extracted from the applicant’s military personnel records are 
contained in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of 
the Air Force (Exhibit C). Accordingly there is no need to 
recite these facts in this Record of Proceedings.



AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

USAF/A1PP recommends denial.  A1PP states the applicant became 
ill during her fitness assessment and left the track.  However, 
she has a run time of 16:37 annotated on her AFFMS history which 
is consistent with her previous run times. The applicant does 
not provide any additional information to support her position 
that she left the track.  The A1PP medical subject matter expert 
reviewed applicant’s attached letter from the psychologist as 
well as her AF Form 469 and determined the referenced medical 
condition diagnosed as “Code 300.00 Anxiety State, Unspecified” 
would not apply to the test failure of 29 December 2010.  

The complete A1PP evaluation is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

The applicant provided an undated letter with two attachments.  
The first attachment dated 19 May 2011 is a letter of support 
from a Technical Sergeant who was with applicant during the run 
portion of the PT test on 29 December 2010.  The second 
attachment dated 23 May 2011 is from the applicant’s 
psychologist stating that the applicant completed psychotherapy 
between 21 January 2011 and 6 April 2011 for acute performance 
anxiety when faced with taking a PT test and that she will work 
with the applicant to find a referral to a psychologist since 
the applicant has been relocated to the state of Arizona during 
the course of this application.   

The applicant’s complete response is at 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.  After a 
thorough review of the evidence of record and the applicant's 
submission, we see no evidence of error or impropriety in the 
physical fitness test and subsequent fitness assessment score.  
Therefore, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the 
Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt the 
rationale expressed as the basis for our decision that the 
applicant has failed to sustain her burden of having suffered 
either an error or injustice.  Therefore, in the absence of 
persuasive evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to 
recommend granting the relief sought in this application.



THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material 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.
