RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2013-01212
COUNSEL: NONE
XXXXXXX HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Fitness Assessment (FA), dated 21 Dec 2012, be removed from
the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS).
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He had on-going, documented breathing and congestion problems
that prevented him from completing the sit-up component of the
FA in question. He attempted to get a waiver from the sit-up
component; however, his Primary Care Manager denied the request.
In support of his request, the applicant provides copies of his
Standard Forms 600, Chronological Record of Medical Care.
His complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 15 Nov 2013, the Fitness Assessment Appeals Board (FAAB)
disapproved the applicants request to remove his FA, dated
21 Dec 2012, from the AFFMS.
The remaining 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. 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." The applicant provided
documentation for three different types of appointments that he
made for the same condition. However, there is no documentation
from his provider that stated he is precluded from the sit-up
component. Furthermore, there is no documentation from his
commander invalidating the FA.
The complete DPSIM evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit
B.
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 13 Dec 2013, a copy of the Air Force evaluation 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.

The failed FA is an injustice as she is currently pending medical care for a chronic hip condition. ________________________________________________________________ APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: The applicant responded stating that she has a chronic health condition that affected her ability to pass the FA. Her squadron commander issued her a Letter of Counseling (LOC) but then dropped it as a result of her medical condition.

While the applicant has provided the results of this medical review, indicating that he had a medical condition precluding him from achieving a passing score, this in and of itself, does not convince us the contested FAs should be invalidated.
