RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-02813
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her Fitness Assessment (FA) dated 2 Apr 2012 be removed from
the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS).
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
Three years ago, she was diagnosed with a medical condition
called Vocal Chord Dysfunction (VCD) and was placed on a "no
maximal exertion" profile. She should have been exempted from
all components of her FA except the abdominal circumference. On
2 Apr 2012, she tested on all four components of her FA and as a
result had a VCD attack, which resulted in a FA failure.
In support of her request, the applicant provides copies of a
letter from the Medical Director and rebuttal to her Enlisted
Performance Report (EPR), AF Form 422, Notification of Air Force
Member's Qualification Status; AF Form 469, Duty Limiting
Condition Report; AF Form 108, Physical Fitness Education and
Intervention Processing, and fitness score sheet.
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 senior airman (SrA, E-4).
________________________________________________________________
THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIM recommends partial approval. DPSIM states the
applicant provided the additional documentation requested per
their 12 Jul 2012 memorandum. DPSIM states the cardio, push-up,
and sit-up components of her FA dated 2 Apr 2012 should reflect
exempt in AFFMS. Exemption of the aforementioned components
will reflect a composite score of 85.5 percent for her FA dated
2 Apr 2012.
The complete DPSIM evaluation is at Exhibit B.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 30 Oct 2012, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded
to the applicant for review and comment within 30 days. As of
this date, no response has been received by this office (Exhibit
C).
________________________________________________________________
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 an error or injustice warranting
partial relief. While the applicant requests her entire FA
dated 2 Apr 2012, be removed from her records, we note the AF
Form 422 does not exempt the abdominal circumference component.
Therefore, we agree with the office of primary responsibility
(OPR) and recommend the cardio, push-up, and sit-up components
of her FA be corrected to reflect exempt in the AFFMS.
Accordingly, we recommend her 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 that the
cardio, sit-up, and push-up components of her FA dated 2 Apr
2012 reflect exempt in the AFFMS.

This logic also concludes a medical condition causing weight gain would cause an increase in AC. She should have never taken the walk test while her dosage was still being adjusted and the FA should be invalidated based on the solid medical evidence presented. While we note the applicant requests the entire FA dated 25 Apr 2012, be removed, the AF Form 422 reflected that she was cleared to test using AC and she has not provided substantial evidence to persuade us otherwise.
