APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

The Fitness Assessment (FA) dated 29 Jun 10, be removed from the 
Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS). 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He failed the FA dated 29 Jun 10, because he was forced to 
accomplish another FA two months after passing the previous FA. 
He believes the failed FA was due to the mentality and 
stubbornness of a naïve airman, which resulted in a referral 
enlisted performance report and rendered him ineligible for 
promotion testing.

Exhibit A.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

applicant on 29 Oct 12 for review and comment within 30 days. 


As of this date, no response has been received by this office

________________________________________________________________ 

 

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. In this respect, we note the Air Force 
office of primary responsibility (OPR) requested additional 
information from the applicant with regard to his contention that 
he failed the FA because he was forced to complete it when he 
was not due assessment; however, he did not respond. Therefore, 
in the absence of substantial evidence supporting his 
contentions, we find that he has failed to meet his burden of 
proving the contested FA is in error or unjust. . However, 
should the applicant provide additional evidence supporting his 
contentions, 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 the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; the 
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the 
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of 
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this 
application.
