 RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-04731 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

Her Fitness Assessment (FA), dated 18 September 2012, be removed 
from the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS). 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

Personal problems resulting in anxiety caused her to fail the FA 
in question. 

 

In support of her request, the applicant provides a memorandum 
from her commander indicating she should not have tested and 
deemed the FA dated 18 September 2012 invalid. 

 

Her complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The relevant facts pertaining to this application are contained 
in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of the Air 
Force. Accordingly, there is no need to recite these facts in 
this Record of Proceedings. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial. DPSIM states that in accordance 
with AFI 36-2905 Air Force Fitness Program, if an airman becomes 
injured or ill during the FA and is unable to complete all 
required components, he/she will have the option of being 
evaluated at the Medical Treatment Facility but his/her test 
will still count unless rendered invalid by the unit commander. 
Anxiety from personal issues in itself does not constitute 
injury or illness; however, if diagnosed by the medical 
treatment facility as a condition precluding FA completion, the 
commander may invalidate it. 

 

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

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

On 14 December 2012, a copy of the Air Force evaluation, with 
attachment, was forwarded to the applicant for review and 
comment within 30 days. As of this date, no response has been 
received by this office (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. 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 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. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

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.
