RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2012-04963
		COUNSEL:  NONE
		HEARING DESIRED: NO

________________________________________________________________
_

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Fitness Assessment (FA) dated 17 May 2012 be removed from 
the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS).

________________________________________________________________
_

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

There was an improper procedure performed during the abdominal 
circumference (AC) measurement of his FA which resulted in an 
unsatisfactory test score.  The test administrator instructed 
him to spin his body around in a circle to capture his AC which 
measured at 38.5.  He believes this to be in error because he 
measured his abdominals the morning of the FA and measured at a 
37.5.  When he returned to his unit after the FA he had a 
physical training leader measure his abdominals and the 
measurement was the same 37.5.

The applicant provides no documentation in support of his claim.

The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A. 

________________________________________________________________
_

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in 
the grade of master sergeant.

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

	DATE	SCORE

	26 May 2010	GOOD
	24 November 2010	SATISFACTORY
	 8 August 2011	EXCELLENT
*	17 May 2012	UNSATISFACTORY
	29 May 2012	EXCELLENT

*Contested FA score.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial.  DPSIM states according to the 
AFFMS, the applicant’s AC component score was recorded as 13.5.  
AFFMS indicates the applicant was measured at 38.5 inches.  The 
applicant failed to provide sufficient evidence to support his 
claim; in fact, he has not provided any documentation other than 
the DD Form 149, Application for Correction of Military Record 
Under the Provisions of Title 10, U.S. Code, Section 1552.  
Without evidence, they cannot make a determination on the 
validity of the applicant’s claim.  Additional documents were 
requested on 7 November 2012, but none were received.  The 
applicant has not demonstrated a clear error or injustice.

The DPSIM complete evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit 
B.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

On 25 April 2013, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was 
forwarded to the applicant for review and response within 
30 days (Exhibit C).  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 error or injustice.  After 
thoroughly reviewing the evidence of record and noting the 
applicant's contentions, we are not persuaded the contested FA 
is in error or unjust.  We note that AFPC/DPSIM requested the 
applicant provide a signed memorandum from the fitness testing 
administer stating what happened during his waist measurement 
taping on 17 May 2012 and a copy of his fitness score sheet from 
that specific fitness assessment to substantiate his claim; 
however, he did not respond.  In the absence of the requested 
documentation, we find insufficient evidence to warrant 
disturbing the record.  However, should the applicant provide 
such evidence,  we would be willing to reconsider his request.  
In view of the above and 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 an 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.
