RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-03340 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

Her Fitness Assessment (FA) dated 28 Jun 2012, be removed from 
the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS). 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

She was not adequately accommodated for a medical condition 
prior to taking the FA which resulted in an unsatisfactory FA 
score. A medical evaluation determined that she should have 
been exempt from the cardio and the sit-up components of the FA. 

 

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).

THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIM recommends partial approval. DPSIM states the 
applicant provided the additional documentation requested per 
their 16 Aug 2012 memorandum. DPSIM states the cardio and sit-
up components of her FA dated 28 Jun 2012, should reflect exempt 
in the AFFMS. Based on the exemptions the applicant’s overall 
fitness assessment score will now reflect a composite score of 
95.33 percent (Excellent). 

 

The complete DPSIM evaluation is at Exhibit B.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

On 30 Oct 2012, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded 
to the applicant for review and comment within 30 days. As of 
this date, no response has 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. Sufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice warranting 
partial relief. After thoroughly reviewing the evidence of 
record and noting the applicant’s contention, we agree with the 
recommendation of DPSIM that since a medical evaluation 
determined that she should have been exempt from the cardio and 
sit-up components of the contested FA, her records should be 
corrected to show that she was exempt from these components. 
While the applicant requests the entire FA be removed, in the 
absence of evidence that she should have been exempt from either 
the entire FA or other components and noting that her overall 
composite score will increase to 95.33 percent (Excellent), we 
believe our recommended corrective action will provide her full 
and fitting relief. Accordingly, we recommend her records 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 that the 
cardio and sit-up components of her FA dated 28 Jun 2012, be 
amended to reflect “exempt” in the AFFMS.
