         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2012-04151

		COUNSEL:  NONE

		HEARING DESIRED: NO

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His fitness assessment (FA), dated 2 August 2012, be removed 
from the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS).  

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He was not medically fit to complete the walk, run, push-ups or 
sit-ups for his 2 August 2012, FA.  

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.  

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are 
contained in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of 
the Air Force at Exhibit C.

________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

1.  AFPC/DPSIM recommends partial approval.  DPSIM states that 
the applicant asserts that he had a medical condition which 
precluded him from receiving a passing FA score.  On 
6 August 2012, it was determined that his current profile needed 
modification due to his unstable medical condition.  

2.  On 20 September 2012, a memorandum was sent to the applicant 
requesting additional documentation be submitted within 30 days 
to substantiate his claim.  Specifically, a copy of his AF Form 
422, Notification of Air Force Member’s Qualification Status, 
documenting limitations and exemptions, a signed FA score sheet, 
and fitness questionnaire.  

3.  The applicant provided an AF Form 469, Duty Limiting Report 
dated 17 May 2012 (modified 8 August 2012) stating no repetitive 
bending at the waist, no lifting greater than 10 lbs., no 
running greater than 100 yards and no pushing or pulling greater 
than 10 lbs.  They recommend the cardio, push-up, and sit-up 
components of the FA dated 2 August 2012, be updated to reflect 
exempt in AFFMS.  The applicant's overall composite score will 
reflect 100.00 (Excellent).

The complete AFPC/DPSIM evaluation, with attachments, is at 
Exhibit C.  

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 9 November 2012 for review and comment within 30 
days (Exhibit D).  To date, a response has not been received.  

________________________________________________________________

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 with respect to 
the applicant’s request for removal of the entire contested FA.  
After thoroughly reviewing the evidence of record and noting the 
applicant's contentions, we are not persuaded the entire 
contested FA is in error or unjust.  The AF Form 469, Duty 
Limiting Report, documenting his limitations and duty exemptions 
and the Military Medical Provider’s assessment is noted; 
however, in the absence of documentation indicating the 
applicant should have been exempt from completing the FA, we 
find insufficient evidence to warrant removal of the entire FA.  

4.  Notwithstanding our determination above, sufficient relevant 
evidence has been presented to demonstrate the existence of 
error or injustice to warrant partial relief.  The Board notes 
the Air Force office of primary responsibility recommends 
partial approval based on the Military Medical Provider’s 
determination that the applicant’s current profile needed to be 
modified due to his unstable medical condition.  Based on the 
medical provider’s assessment, we believe the cardio, push-ups 
and sit-ups components of the contested FA should be corrected 
to reflect “exempt” in the AFFMS.  Our recommended change will 
result in an overall composite fitness score of 100.00, 
(Excellent).  Accordingly, we recommend the applicant’s record 
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, 
push-up, and sit-up components of the fitness assessment dated 
2 August 2012, be amended to reflect “exempt” in the Air Force 
Fitness Management System.
