RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-02852
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Fitness Assessment (FA) dated 12 March 2012 be removed from
her records.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was seen in flight medicine by the independent duty medical
technical and not a doctor for back issues and was put on a duty
limiting waiver. He then took his FA and was unable to complete
the push-up portion of the test because his back gave out
resulting in a failure. The next day he went to the doctor and
received a new duty limiting waiver.
The applicants 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.
The applicants last five FA scores are as follows:
DATE SCORE
7 February 2011 UNSATISFACTORY
6 May 2011 SATISFACTORY
21 November 2011 UNSATISFACTORY
* 12 March 2012 UNSATISFACTORY
28 August 2012 UNSATISFACTORY
*Contested FA score.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIM recommends approval. DPSIM recommends the push-up
component of the FA dated 12 March 2012 be updated to reflect
exempt in the AFFMS. The applicant provided an AF Form 469, Duty Limiting Condition Report, dated 13 March 2012, stating no
push-ups. The overall composite score will change to reflect
85.25 (Satisfactory).
The complete DPSIM evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit B.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
The applicant provided additional documentation in support of his
appeal.
The applicants response, with attachments, is at Exhibit D.
_________________________________________________________________
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 an error or injustice to warrant
removing the contested FA from the applicants records. While
the applicant requests the entire FA be removed, the AF Form 469
only exempted him from the push-up portion of the FA and not the
other components. As such, we find the abdominal circumference,
cardio, and sit-up components of the FA should remain
undisturbed.
4. Notwithstanding the above, sufficient relevant evidence has
been presented to warrant correcting the applicants records to
show that he was exempt from participating in the push-up
component of the contested FA, which will change his overall
composite score to reflect 85.25, a Satisfactory rating. In
view of the fact the applicant had a duty limiting condition that
exempted him from the push-up component of the contested FA, we
agree with the opinion and recommendation of DPSIM and accept its
rationale as the basis for our recommendation 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 that the push-up
component of the Fitness Assessment dated 12 March 2012 be
amended to reflect exempt in the Air Force Fitness Management
System.
