RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-05655
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His fitness assessment (FA) recorded on 19 November 2012 be
removed from the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS).
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He has a documented medical condition which precluded him from
achieving a passing score in a non-exempt portion of the fitness
assessment.
In support of his request, the applicant provides a copy of a
combined letter from his first sergeant and medical provider
dated 5 December 2012.
The applicants complete submission, with attachment, is at
Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in
the grade of Technical Sergeant (TSgt), E-6.
A resume of the applicant's FA results are as follows:
Date Composite Score Rating
*19 Nov 12 22.40 Unsatisfactory
4 Apr 12 75.10 Satisfactory
1 Feb 12 74.80 Unsatisfactory
3 Nov 11 78.00 Unsatisfactory
20 Apr 11 78.80 Satisfactory
28 Oct 10 79.30 Satisfactory
* Contested FA
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are
contained in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of
the Air Force at Exhibit C.
________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
1. AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial. DPSIM states the evidence
provided by the applicant was incomplete and not sufficient to
support his claim. The applicant was unable to meet the minimum
requirement for the run portion of the FA and achieved a
composite score of 22.40, an unsatisfactory fitness level. He
provided documentation from his First Sergeant requesting a
determination of his medical condition. In the Medical
Condition Determination for FA Test Failures memorandum, the
health care provider acknowledged the applicant had a medical
condition that precluded him from passing the FA.
2. The memorandum does not allow for clarification on the
applicant's limitations. Additionally, the applicant did not
provide an AF Form 469, Duty Limiting Condition Report, which
is required to be completed when a medical condition impacts
fitness activity or when an FA is due in accordance with AFI 36-
2905, Fitness Program, paragraph 1.18.3. There is no indication
of what extent the medical condition affected the FA. It is
unclear if the applicant should be exempted from one or more
components, or the entire FA. The applicant provided no
additional documentation to support his request.
The complete AFPC/DPSIM evaluation, with attachment, is at
Exhibit C.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the
applicant on 17 February 2013 for review and comment within 30
days (Exhibit D). To date, a response has not been received.
________________________________________________________________
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
applicant's contentions, we are not persuaded the contested FA
is in error or unjust. The Medical Condition Determination
memorandum from the medical provider is noted; however, in the
absence of an AF Form 469, Duty Limiting Condition Report, it is
unclear to what extent the medical condition affected his
19 November 2012 FA, therefore, 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.
