RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2014-01531
	
	 		COUNSEL:  NONE

			HEARING DESIRED:  NO 


APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

Her last four fitness assessments, dated 3 April 2013, 3 July 
2013, 1 October 2013 and 31 December 2013, be removed from the Air 
Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS).


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

She has severe asthma and has been on a no run profile for the 
past 12-plus years.  Without explanation, her profile was not 
extended for her last assessment.  She feels the failures are 
unjust due to her medical condition.  How can she be expected to 
run and pass the test after not doing so for over 12 years?

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is a former member of the Regular Air Force who 
served from 9 April 1997 through 30 September 2014 when she was 
honorably discharged in the rank of staff sergeant.

The applicant’s last five FA results are as follows:

	Date	Composite Score	Rating	

	*31 Dec 13	    15.00	Unsatisfactory
 	*1 Oct 13	    34.4	Unsatisfactory
	*3 Jul 13	    25.00	Unsatisfactory
	*3 Apr 13	    10.00	Unsatisfactory
	15 Aug 12	    81.25	Satisfactory

*Contested Fitness Assessments


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial.  In accordance with AFI 36-2905, 
Fitness Program, unit commanders must make a discharge or 
retention recommendation to the separation authority once an 
airman receives four unsatisfactory scores in a 24-month period 
and a military medical provider has reviewed the airman’s medical 
records to rule out medical conditions precluding the airman from 
achieving a passing score.  If the separation authority disagrees 
with the unit commander’s retention recommendation, discharge 
action is initiated pursuant to applicable discharge instruction.  
There is no medical evaluation following multiple unsatisfactory 
fitness assessments in a member’s records.  Therefore, DPSID 
cannot determine if the applicant failed due to a medical 
condition.  The applicant would have failed three out of the last 
four assessments regardless of the cardio exemptions due to 
failing the abdominal circumference for the fitness assessments 
dated 3 April 2013, 1 October 2013 and 31 December 2013.  

There is no justification the applicant failed her last four 
fitness assessments due to a medical condition.

The complete AFPC/DPSIM evaluation, with attachment, is at 
Exhibit C.


APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluations was forwarded to the applicant 
on 20 March 2015 for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit D).  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 an 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 
(OPR) and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion and 
find the applicant has not been the victim of an error of 
injustice.  Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, 
we find no basis to recommend granting the requested relief.


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.
