STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in
the grade of master sergeant (E-7).
On 25 Jul 12, the applicant participated in the contested FA,
attaining a composite score of 64.10, which constituted an
unsatisfactory assessment.
On 6 Aug 12, the applicant was evaluated by his Primary Care
Manager (PCM) and the PCM indicated he was not medically cleared
to complete the entire standard FA. Additonally, he was not
medically cleared for participation in all unit physical
conditioning programs.
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, noting the applicant has not
demonstrated a clear error or injustice. Based on the evidence
presented, the applicant did seek medical attention after his
25 Jul 12 FA failure; however, he did so on 6 Aug 12, outside
the five-day window directed by AFI 36-2905, AFGM 4, Fitness
Program. Additionally, there is no evidence that his commander
concurred with the medical recommendation and exercised his
authority to invalidate the FA.
A complete copy of the 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 25 Jan 13 for review and comment within 30 days.
As of this date, no response has been received by this office
(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. We took
notice of the applicants 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.
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
