The applicant has not provided documentation from the unit commander indicating his/her decision to invalidate the FAs (IAW AFI 36- 2905 - AFGM2 dated 20 December 2010 – paragraph 13). The DPSIM complete evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit B. ________________________________________________________________ _ APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: On 29 October 2013, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant for review and response within 30 days (Exhibit C). 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 FAs are in error or unjust. In this respect, we note the letter from the applicant’s medical provider; however, the applicant did not provide documentation from the unit commander recommending the assessments be invalidated. Therefore, 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 failed to sustain his burden of proof of the existence of an error or injustice. 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 an 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. ________________________________________________________________ _ The following members of the Board considered AFBCMR Docket Number BC-2013-00926 in Executive Session on 12 December 2013, under the provisions of AFI 36-2603: The following documentary evidence was considered: Exhibit A.
