RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-03753 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His Fitness Assessment (FA) dated 10 Jul 12 be removed from the 
Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS). 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

The testing number pinned to his Physical Training uniform was 
turned around during the completion of the aerobic component. 
The Physical Training Leader (PTL) was not able to see his 
number. His laps were miscounted and he had to run an extra lap. 

 

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

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant failed the FA dated 10 Jul 12. 

 

On 14 Sep 12, AFPC/DPSIM sent a memorandum to applicant 
requesting additional documentation. Specifically, a signed 
fitness score sheet. 

 

_________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial. DPSIM notes the commander has the 
authority to invalidate a FA based on an injury or illness that 
occurred during the test; however, the AFI does not provide any 
guidance that supports commanders invalidating FA for any other 
purpose. DPSIM further notes the support memorandum provided by 
the applicant was not signed by his commander and; therefore, 
does not confirm its validity. Furthermore, the applicant did 
not provide the additional documents requested. 

 

Based on the memorandum describing the events of the 
administration of the cardio component of the FA, DPSIM concludes 
there is no discrepancy in regards to the number of laps the 


applicant performed. The memorandum indicates the test 
administrators verified the lap count before they recorded the 
time on the applicant’s score sheet. 

 

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 8 Feb 13, 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 not timely filed; however it is in the 
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file. 

 

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. The unsigned memorandum from the applicant’s 
commander is noted; however, in the absence of a signature and a 
copy of his signed fitness score sheet from the FA in question, 
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 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.
