RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-02030 COUNSEL: NONE HEARING DESIRED: NO APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: Her Fitness Assessment (FA), dated 18 Feb 14 [sic], be removed from her record in the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS). APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: A medical condition precluded her from achieving a passing score on the non-exempt portion of her FA test. The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A. STATEMENT OF FACTS: The applicant initially entered the Regular Air Force on 21 Nov 11. On 3 Feb 14, the applicant was issued an AF Form 469, Duty Limiting Condition Report, which indicated that she was exempt from the cardio (run only) and sit-up components of the FA, beginning on 3 Feb 14 and expiring on 1 May 14. On 19 Feb 14, the applicant participated in the contested FA where she attained a score of zero in the push-up component, and an overall composite score of 57.0, which constitutes an unsatisfactory rating, as a score of 75.0 is required for a passing score. On 27 Mar 14, according to documentation provided by the applicant, her first sergeant requested a determination from her healthcare provider as to whether there was a medical condition that precluded the applicant from passing her FAs on 19 Feb 14, 19 Apr 13, 17 Jan 13, and 9 Oct 12. The applicant’s medical provider indicated that she had medical condition that precluded her from passing the contested FA, but did not indicate the nature of the condition or how it affected the outcome of the FA. In accordance with AFI 36-2905, Fitness Program, when an Airman receives four Unsatisfactory FA scores within a 24-month period and a medical records review by a military health care provider has ruled out medical conditions precluding the Airman from achieving a passing score, the Unit Commander must make a discharge or retention recommendation to the separation authority. A recommendation for discharge or retention will be made regardless of an Airman’s achieving one or multiple passing FAs in between the four failures. On 5 May 14, the Secretary of the Air Force convened a Quality Force Review Board (QFRB) to consider continued service for Airman with negative reporting identifiers, reenlistment eligibility codes, assignment availability codes, or grade status reasons. On 5 Jun 14, the applicant was notified of her non-selection for retention and given a mandatory date of separation (DOS) of 29 Sep 14. On 29 Sep 14, the applicant was honorably discharged and was issued a separation program designator (SPD) code of JBK (Expiration of Service Obligation), a reentry (RE) code of 3K (Secretarial Authority), and a narrative reason for separation of “Completion of Required Active Duty Service,” and credited with two years, ten months, and nine days of active service. The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are contained in the memorandum prepared by the Air Force office of primary responsibility (OPR), which is attached at Exhibit C. AIR FORCE EVALUATION: AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial indicating the applicant has not exhausted all available avenues of administrative relief prior to seeking correction of her military record through the BCMR. In accordance with Air Force Instruction 36-2905, dated 21 Oct 13, any military member can appeal his/her FA via Wing Appeal and subsequently through the AF Fitness Assessment Appeals Board (FAAB), within two years of discovering an error/injustice. The applicant’s DD Form 149 was signed after 21 Oct 13 and the appeal has not been considered by her Wing commander, nor has it been reviewed by the FAAB; therefore, the applicant’s request has not been submitted IAW current Air Force guidance. A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSIM evaluation is at Exhibit C. APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 10 Oct 14 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. The applicant contends a medical condition precluded her from achieving a passing score on the non-exempt portion of her fitness assessment (FA) test and should therefore be removed from her record in the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS). We note the comments of the Air Force office of primary responsibility (OPR) indicating the applicant has not exhausted her administrative remedies by appealing the FA failure through her wing commander or the Fitness Assessment Appeals Board (FAAB). However, in view of the fact the applicant has been discharged since the OPR advisory was rendered in this case, said avenue of relief is no longer available to the applicant. Accordingly, she has exhausted her administrative remedies and her request is ripe for adjudication at this level. After a thorough review of the evidence of record and the applicant’s complete submission, we are not convinced that corrective action is warranted. In this respect, we note the applicant may have had a medical condition, however, the applicant has provided no medical documentation whatsoever that would allow us to determine if her medical condition unfairly precluded her from passing the contested FA. While we note she has provided documentation indicating that a healthcare provider indicated that her condition could have caused her to be unable to complete a non-exempt portion of the contested FA, without documentation describing the condition, we cannot make a reasonable determination as to whether the applicant is the victim of an error or injustice. In this respect, we note that based on this information, the commander could have invalidated this particular FA, which was one of four FAs the applicant failed. However, in the absence of any evidence that the commander did not give due consideration to invalidating the contested FA and with no documentation that would help us ascertain the nature of the medical condition, we are not convinced that corrective action is warranted. Therefore, in view of the above, 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.
