_

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He received an AF Form 108, Physical Fitness Education and 
Intervention Processing, signed by his Primary Care Physician 
(PCM) stating that he had a medical condition that precluded him 
from achieving a passing fitness score.  

On 14 Jun 12, he received a two-stage laminectomy to aid in the 
correction of his medical status and is currently on a duty 
limiting condition profile.

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.  The applicant failed his FA on 
29 May 12, with a score of 62.75. 

The relevant facts pertaining to this application are contained 
in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of the Air 
Force.  Accordingly, there is no need to recite these facts in 
this Record of Proceedings.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial.  DPSIM states that on 20 Jul 12, a 
memorandum was sent to the applicant requesting additional 
documentation, specifically, his completed AF Form 469, Duty 
Limiting Condition Report; AF Form 422, Physical Profile Serial 
Report; signed score sheet and questionnaire.   The member did 
not provide the requested documentation.  

The applicant did provide a copy of his AF Form 108, dated 7 Jun 
12; however, it has no comments on the preexisting conditions.

The complete DPSIM evaluation is at Exhibit B.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

On 16 Oct 12, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded 
to the applicant for review and comment within 30 days.  As of 
this date, a response has not been received by this office 
(Exhibit C).

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.  The AF Form 108 the applicant provides 
as evidence is noted; however, we find it insufficient to 
warrant disturbing the record.  Should the applicant provide 
copies of a completed AF Form 422 and AF Form 469, 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 that the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that 
the application was denied without a personal appearance; and 
that the application will only be reconsidered upon the 
submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered 
with this application.
