RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-04375
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Fitness Assessment (FA) dated 24 October 2011 be removed from
his records.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
His fitness assessment followed an approved convalescent leave
period after a surgical procedure. This impacted the AFI
mandated reconditioning period before a fitness assessment
following an unsatisfactory test. The convalescent leave period
and pain management step greatly impacted his ability to prepare
for all components of the test and those components that were
exempted.
In support of the applicants appeal, he provides a personal
statement and documents extracted from his military personnel
records.
The applicant's 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 technical sergeant.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial. DPSIM states the applicant was
administered a FA on 12 July 2011 and received an unsatisfactory.
Per AFI 36-2905, a member has 42 days for reconditioning after a
PT test failure. Considering the 42 days for reconditioning, the
member was due for a fitness assessment on 26 August 2011. The
applicant was not administered another fitness assessment until
24 October 2011, which made him 60-days overdue for a FA. In
total, the applicant went 104 days without a FA being
administered. The results of the applicants PT tests reflect he
met the minimum score in all components except for sit-ups. This
resulted in an unsatisfactory score for both tests administered
on 12 July 2011 and 24 October 2011. The applicant was provided
a profile on 18 October 2011. However, on his profile he was
cleared for the aerobic, waist, and sit-ups components. The
applicant was only exempt from pushups. Although the applicants
diagnosis had been confirmed, his profile dated 18 October 2011
indicated that this injury did not contribute to his inability to
pass the sit-up component of his fitness assessment.
The DPSIM complete evaluation is at Exhibit B.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 16 December 2011, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was
forwarded to the applicant for review and response within 30 days
(Exhibit C). As of this date, no response has been received by
this office.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing
law or regulations.
2. The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of an error or an injustice. We took
notice of the applicant's complete submission in judging the
merits of the case; however, the Board majority agrees with the
opinion and the recommendation of the Air Force office of primary
responsibility and adopt its rationale as the basis for our
conclusion the applicant has failed to sustain his burden of
proof of the existence of an error or injustice. Therefore, in
the absence of evidence to the contrary, the Board majority finds
no basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this
application.
_________________________________________________________________
RECOMMENDATION OF THE BOARD:
The majority of the board finds insufficient evidence of error or
injustice and recommends the application be denied.
