RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-04153
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His 26 June 2012 fitness assessment (FA) score be removed from
the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS).
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was not given the requisite 42 days for reconditioning after
his profile expired.
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 Staff Sergeant (SSgt/E-5).
On 13 March 2012, the applicant was issued an AF Form 469, Duty
Limiting Condition Report, which prohibited him from repetitive
bending at the waist and running greater than 100 yards. This
profile was set to expire on 29 May 2012.
In accordance with the Air Force General Guidance Memorandum
(AFGM) 5, Airmen with an AF Form 422, Notification of Air Force Members Qualification Status, must maintain current FA
standards. If the service member is due to test during the
AF Form 422 effective dates or 42-day reconditioning period,
they will complete the FA components that they are cleared to
test on per the AF Form 422.
Under the provisions of AFI 36-2905, Fitness Program, the
expiration date on the AF Form 422 reflects the date the service
member is medically cleared to resume physical activities
previously restricted. The service members will be eligible for
the FA 42 days after the expiration date of physical
limitations, as annotated on AF Form 469. This allows time for
reconditioning, if exempted for greater than 30 days.
On 26 Jun 12, the applicant participated in the contested
Fitness Assessment and was required to earn an overall composite
score of 75 or greater. He received an overall score of 68.30,
which constituted an overall unsatisfactory score.
On 20 September 2012, AFPC/DPSIM requested the applicant provide
additional documentation to substantiate his claim; specifically,
his AF Form 422, Physical Profile Serial Report, signed fitness
score sheets, and questionnaire.
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are
contained in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of
the Air Force, which is attached at Exhibit C.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial, indicating there is no evidence of
an error or injustice. Service members who were prohibited from
physical activity for 30 days or more and have been medically
cleared to resume physical activity are eligible for a 42-day
reconditioning period after the expiration date of their duty
limiting profile. The applicant failed to respond to the
request for an AF Form 422 to validate the effective dates or
the 42-day reconditioning period for the fitness components he
was cleared to test on.
A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSIM evaluation, with attachment,
is at Exhibit C.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the
applicant on 25 January 2013, for review and comment within 30
days (Exhibit D). 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 timely filed.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice. We took
notice of the applicant's complete submission in judging the
merits of the case; however, we agree with the opinion and
recommendation of the Air Force office of primary responsibility
(OPR) and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion
the applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice.
We note the Air Force OPR requested additional documentation
from the applicant to help validate the merits of his claim;
however, he failed to respond. Therefore, in the absence of
evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting
the relief sought in this application.
________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; the
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this
application.
