RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-04234 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

Her Fitness Assessment (FA) dated 5 June 2012 be removed from the 
Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS). 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

The fitness assessment was performed by an untrained technical 
school student. The waist measurement was performed 
inaccurately, resulting in an incorrect fitness assessment 
failure. When retested by a Physical Training Leader (PTL) and 
the Scott AFB fitness assessment cell (FAC) her waist measurement 
was 3.5 inches smaller. 

 

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 airman first class. 

 

The applicant’s last three FA scores are as follows: 

 

 DATE SCORE 

 

 4 July 2011 EXCELLENT 

* 5 June 2012 UNSATISFACTORY 

 3 August 2012 EXCELLENT 

 

*Contested FA score.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial. DPSIM states that on 25 September 
2012, a memorandum was sent to the applicant requesting 
additional documentation - specifically, a memo from the 382nd 
TRS superintendent stating that she was administered a fitness 
assessment by a non-PTL, non-prior service, technical student and 
a copy of her signed fitness assessment score sheet dated 5 June 
2012. Documents dated 19 October 2012 were received from 
applicant’s Military Training Flight Chief; however, the 
documents do not substantiate her claim. 

 

The complete DPSIM evaluation is at Exhibit B. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

On 26 November 2012, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was 
forwarded to the applicant for review and response 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. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice. The applicant 
contends that her waist measurement was performed by an untrained 
technical school student and was performed inaccurately. In 
support of her appeal, she provides a statement from the squadron 
commander indicating that three subsequent FAs, performed by 
trained personnel, clearly show the AC performed during the 
contested FA was not performed correctly. The applicant’s 
fitness assessment history reflects that her waist measurement 
has consistently measured at 33 inches; however, during the 
contested FA her waist measured 36.5 inches. In view of this and 
noting the statement of support from the squadron commander, we 
find sufficient evidence to conclude the applicant’s AC was 
incorrectly measured during the contested FA. Therefore, we 
recommend her records be corrected as 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 her Fitness 
Assessment, dated 5 June 2012, be removed from the Air Force 
Fitness Management System (AFFMS). 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

The following members of the Board considered AFBCMR Docket 
Number BC-2012-04234 in Executive Session on 16 May 2013, under 
the provisions of AFI 36-2603: 

 

 

All members voted to correct the records, as recommended. The 
following documentary evidence was considered: 

 

 Exhibit A. DD Form 149, dated 12 June 2012, w/atchs. 

 Exhibit B. Letter, AFPC/DPSIM, dated 16 July 2012, w/atchs.
