                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 
 
IN THE MATTER OF: 
 
   
 
   
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 
 
His  fitness  assessment  (FA)  score  recorded  on  29  March  2012  be 
removed from the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS).  
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 
 
During  the  FA  on  29  March  2012,  he  sprained  his  right  ankle  in 
the  course  of  running  the  1.5  mile  cardio  component.    After  the 
FA  he  conferred  with  his  primary  care  manager  (PCM)  and  became 
aware  of  previous  fractures  to  his  right  ankle  that  were  mis-
diagnosed at his previous base.   
 
In  support  of  his  request,  the  applicant  provides  copies  of  his 
AF  Form  108,  Physical  Fitness  Education  and  Intervention 
Processing,  current  AF  Form  422,  Notification  of  Air  Force 
Member’s  Qualification  Status  and  AF  Form  469,  Duty  Limiting 
Condition  Report,  memorandums  for  record  (MFRs)  from  his 
commander  and  supervisor,  and  his  AFFMS  Report  of  Individual 
Fitness.   
 
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 Staff Sergeant (SSgt), E-5.   
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
AFPC/DPSIM  recommends  the  cardio  portion  of  the  fitness 
assessment dated 29 March 2012 be updated to reflect “exempt” in 
AFFMS.    The  applicant  provided  copies  of  the  AF  Form  422, 
exempting  him  from  the  cardio  portion  of  the  FA  and  his  AF  Form 
108  to  confirm  he  had  a  medical  condition  that  precluded  the 
achievement  of  a  passing  fitness  score.    With  the  exemption  of 

 

 

 

the  cardio  score,  the  applicant’s  overall  composite  score  will 
reflect 80 (Satisfactory).   
 
The  complete  AFPC/DPSIM  evaluation,  with  attachments,  is  at 
Exhibit B.   
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
A  copy  of  the  Air  Force  evaluation  was  forwarded  to  the 
applicant  on  18  June  2012  for  review  and  comment  within  30 days 
(Exhibit C).  To date, this office has not received a 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  to  warrant 
partial  relief.    We  took  notice  of  the  applicant's  complete 
submission  in  judging  the  merits  of  the  case  and  agree  with  the 
opinion  and  recommendation  of  the  Air  Force  office  of  primary 
responsibility  to  correct  the  cardio  portion  of  the  fitness 
assessment  dated  29  March  2012,  to  reflect  “exempt”  in  the  Air 
Force  Fitness  Management  System.    The  applicant’s  overall 
composite  fitness  score  will  reflect  80.00,  (Satisfactory).  
Accordingly,  we  recommend  that  his  records  be  corrected  to  the 
extent indicated below.   
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT: 
 
The  pertinent  military  records  of  the  Department  of  the  Air 
Force  relating  to  APPLICANT  be  corrected  to  show  the  cardio 
portion of the fitness assessment dated 29 March 2012 be amended 
to reflect “exempt” in the Air Force Fitness Management System.

Your application to the Air Force Board for Correction of Military Records, AFBCMR  

 
 
AFBCMR 
1500 West Perimeter Road, Suite 3700 
Joint Base Andrews NAF Washington, MD 20762 
 
 
 
 
Dear: 
 
 
BC-2012-01791 has been finalized. 
 
 
The Board determined that the military records should be corrected as set forth in the 
attached copy of a Memorandum for the Chief of Staff, United States Air Force.  The office 
responsible for making the correction will inform you when your records have been changed. 
 
 
After correction, the records will be reviewed to determine if you are entitled to any 
monetary benefits as a result of the correction of records.  This determination is made by the 
Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS-IN), Indianapolis, Indiana, and involves the 
assembly and careful checking of finance records.  It may also be necessary for the DFAS-IN to 
communicate directly with you to obtain additional information to ensure the proper settlement of 
your claim.  Because of the number and complexity of claims workload, you should expect some 
delay.  We assure you, however, that every effort will be made to conclude this matter at the 
earliest practical date. 
 
                                                                                  Sincerely,
