RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-02488 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His Fitness Assessment (FA) test score dated 30 Apr 12, be 
declared void and removed from the Air Force Fitness Management 
System (AFFMS). 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

Due to a medical ailment, he did not complete his FA test. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant is currently serving on active duty. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial of the applicant’s request to void 
his 30 Apr 12, FA test score. However, due to his AF Form 422, 
Notification of Air Force Member’s Qualification Status, 
exempting him from the 1.5 mile run, the cardio component of the 
contested FA should be changed to reflect “exempt” in the AAFMS. 
Members overall score will now reflect “79.50” (unsatisfactory) 
due to his failure to meet the minimum required in sit-ups. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant 
on 7 Aug 12, for review and comment within 30 days. As of this 
date, this office has received no response (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. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of error and injustice to warrant 
partial relief. While we note the applicant requests that his 
entire Fitness Assessment dated 30 Apr 12, be removed from the 
AFFMS, the AF Form 422 only exempts him from the 1.5 mile run. 
Therefore, we find no basis to recommend removing his FA. 
However, we are in agreement with DPISM’s recommendation to only 
exempt the cardio portion of his FA. We note that this will 
still result in an unsatisfactory score. In view of the above, 
we recommend the applicant’s records be corrected only to the 
extent indicated below. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT: 

 

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air Force 
relating to the APPLICANT, be corrected to show that the cardio 
portion of his Fitness Assessment, dated 30 Apr 12, reflect 
“exempt” in the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS).

    A commander can only recommend the removal of a fitness score when a member is unable to complete the FA due to a medical condition which is validated by a medical provider. In this case, after the applicant sustained his injury, there is no indication a medical provider exempted him from any components of the FA or that his commander invalidated the test. A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSIM evaluation is at Exhibit...
