AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial. In accordance with AFI 36-2905, Fitness Program, paragraph 4.3.2., Component Exemption, a member
that is exempt from one or more components of the FA will be
assessed on the remaining components.
DPSIM notes that the applicant provided an AF Form 422, Notification of Air Force Members Qualification Status, dated
2 Nov 11 and 27 Apr 12, which exempt him from the 1.5 mile run
and 1.0 mile sub-maximal walk assessment. On the dates in
question, he tested on the remaining components in accordance
with his profile.
The complete DPSIM evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit B.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant
on 17 Sep 12, for review and comment within 30 days. As of this
date, this office has received no response (Exhibit C).
_________________________________________________________________
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
applicants contentions, we are not persuaded the contested FA is
in error or unjust. Therefore, we agree with the opinion and
recommendation of the Air Force office of primary responsibility
and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion the
applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice. 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 that the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that
the application was denied without a personal appearance; and
that the application will only be reconsidered upon the
submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered
with this application.
