IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2012-05779

			COUNSEL:  NONE

			HEARING DESIRED: NO

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her fitness assessment (FA), recorded on 28 November 2012, be 
removed from the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS).  

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

She had a medical condition that affected her ability to 
satisfactorily complete the FA.  


In support of her request the applicant submitted copies of her 
AF Form 422, Notification of Air Force Member’s Qualification 
Status, AF Form 469, Duty Limiting Report, a memorandum from her 
primary care manager, and printout of her AFFMS, Report of 
Individual Fitness.  

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

________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in 
the grade of Staff Sergeant (SSgt), E-5.  

A resume of the applicant's FA results is as follows:

Date 	Composite Score	Rating

*28 Nov 12	38.40	Unsatisfactory
31 May 12	85.90	Satisfactory
13 May 11	93.90	Excellent
23 Nov 10	80.10	Good
5 May 10	79.25	Good
2 Nov 09	85.00	Good

* 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 partial approval.  DPSIM states that 
the applicant completed her FA on 28 November 2012, with a 
composite score of 38.40, (Unsatisfactory).  The  applicant had 
an AF Form 469, dated the same day as the FA, which exempted her 
from all components except the Abdominal Circumference (AC).  
For that reason, the applicant should not have been required to 
complete the cardio, push-up, and sit-up components of FA.  On 
the other hand, because her AF Form 469 did not restrict the AC, 
there is no authority to remove this component from AFFMS.  
Additionally, in accordance with (IAW) AFI 36-2905, Fitness 
Program, and Air Force Guidance Memorandum (AFGM) 4, paragraph 
4.1, “all members will complete an AC assessment as listed 
unless exempted by medical provider.”  

2.  They recommend the cardio, push-up, and sit-up components of 
the FA dated 28 November 2012, be updated to reflect exempt in 
AFFMS.  The applicant's overall composite score will reflect 
100.00, (Excellent).

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 15 March 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 with respect to 
the applicant’s request for removal of the entire contested FA.  
After thoroughly reviewing the evidence of record and noting the 
applicant's contentions, we are not persuaded the entire 
contested FA is in error or unjust.  The AF Form 469, Duty 
Limiting Report, documenting her limitations and duty exemptions 
and the Military Medical Provider’s assessment is noted; 
however, in the absence of documentation indicating the 
applicant should have been exempt from completing the FA, we 
find insufficient evidence to warrant removal of the entire FA.  

4.  Notwithstanding our determination above, sufficient relevant 
evidence has been presented to warrant partial relief.  The 
Board notes the Air Force office of primary responsibility (OPR) 
recommends partial approval based on the determination in the AF 
Form 469,  Duty Limiting Report, that the applicant should not 
have been required to complete the cardio, push-up, and sit-up 
components of FA.  We agree with the OPRs recommendation that 
the contested FA should be corrected to reflect “exempt” in the 
AFFMS.  The recommended change will result in an overall 
composite fitness score of 100.00, (Excellent).  Accordingly, we 
recommend the applicant’s record be corrected to the extent 
indicated below.
________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:

The pertinent military records of the Department of the Air 
Force relating to APPLICANT be corrected to show the cardio, 
push-up, and sit-up components of the fitness assessment dated 
28 November 2012, be amended to reflect “exempt” in the Air 
Force Fitness Management System.
