RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:				DOCKET NUMBERS:  BC-2013-
00611
      COUNSEL: NONE
	                				HEARING DESIRED:  YES

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

Her Fitness Assessment (FA), dated 6 January 2013, be removed 
from the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS).  

________________________________________________________________
_

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

The cardio component of her FA was conducted in an area which 
did not comply with Air Force Instruction.  Times and laps were 
not tracked appropriately which prevented her from passing the 
cardio component of her FA.  She has never failed an FA in 15 
years.

In support of her appeal, the applicant provides a Memorandum of 
Record from a meteorological technician and her Individual 
Fitness Assessment History.  

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachment is at 
Exhibit A.

________________________________________________________________
_

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently a member of the Air Force Reserve 
serving in the grade of master sergeant (E-7).  She took a FA on 
6 January 2013 scoring a composite score of 74.90, which is an 
unsatisfactory score. 

The remaining relevant facts, extracted from the applicant’s 
military service record, are contained in the evaluation 
provided by the Air Force office of primary responsibility at 
Exhibit C.  

________________________________________________________________
_

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial.  DPSIM states the applicant did 
not provide any supporting documentation indicating the run was 
conducted on an indoor track versus an outdoor track or that the 
indoor track was unauthorized.  Without validation of 
inappropriate track usage or a request from the commander to 
remove the FA, they cannot remove the requested FA.  

The complete DPSIM evaluation is at Exhibit C.  

________________________________________________________________
_

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 31 October 2013, for review and comment within 30 
days (Exhibit D).  As of this date, this office has received no 
response.

________________________________________________________________
_

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.  We took notice 
of the applicant's 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 and adopt its 
rationale as the basis for our conclusion that 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.

4.  The applicant's case is adequately documented and it has not 
been shown that a personal appearance with or without counsel 
will materially add to our understanding of the issues involved.  
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably 
considered.

________________________________________________________________
_

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.

    On 25 Oct 13 she received an updated AF Form 469, stating that she was exempt from the cardio component of the FA. The applicant's AF Form 469 shows the cardio limitations expired on 23 Sep 13, which would have allowed the applicant to complete the cardio component of the FA. The applicant did not provide an updated AF Form 469 to show the exemption expired on a later date.

    If she had been on the correct profile when she completed the June 2011 FA, she would have passed the FA with a 75.5 score and would not have received the referral EPR. DPSID states that based on the AFPC/DPSIM advisory to grant the relief sought to exempt the cardio component of the FA dated 8 June 2011, they contend that the fitness assessment failure is an inappropriate comment on the contested referral EPR, and as a result, the referral EPR should be removed from her record.
