AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-03766 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

_______________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His 26 Jul 11 Fitness Assessment (FA) be removed from the Air 
Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS). 

_______________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

He received a profile for Costochondritis on 21 Sep 11. At the 
time of his FA, his Primary Care Manager (PCM) was still trying 
to figure out the cause of his chest pain. He has since 
received an AF Form 108, Physical Fitness Education and 
Intervention Processing, from his PCM indicating there was a 
medical issue that prevented him from passing his 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 (E-5). 

 

On 17 Mar 11, the applicant was issued an AF Form 422, Notification of Air Force Member’s Qualification Status, which 
exempted him from the 1.5 mile run and expired on 12 Jun 11. 

 

On 26 Jul 11, the applicant participated in the contested FA, 
attaining a composite score of 19.00, which constituted an 
unsatisfactory assessment. 

 

On 21 Sep 11, the applicant was issued an AF Form 422, which 
exempted him from the 1.5 mile run and push-ups, and expired on 
21 Nov 11. 

 

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are 
contained in the letter prepared by the appropriate office of 
the Air Force, which is attached at Exhibit C.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial, noting the applicant provided an 
AF Form 469, Duty Limiting Condition Report (DLC), dated 19 Sep 
11 and an AF 422, Notification of Air Force Member’s 
Qualification Status, dated 21 Sep 11, exempting him from the 
1.5 mile run and pushup components of the FA. Both these 
documents are dated two months after the member completed the 
contested FA. The applicant had a DLC and AF Form 422 both 
predating the contested FA and exempting him from the 1.5 mile 
run only with an expiration date of 12 Jun 11. The applicant’s 
42 day reacclamation period expired two days prior to the 
contested FA and prior to receiving another profile. The 
applicant failed to meet the minimum requirements in all four 
components of the contested FA. 

 

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSIM evaluation, with attachments, 
is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 1 Oct 12 for review and comment within 30 days. As 
of this date, no response has been received by this office 
(Exhibit D).

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 that there was a preexisting medical issue 
that prevented him from passing the contested FA. However, 
after a thorough review of the evidence of record and the 
applicant’s complete submission, we are not convinced that he is 
the victim of an error or injustice. While the applicant argues 
that his PCM was still trying to figure out the cause of his 
chest pain at the time of his contested FA, he has provided no 
evidence to indicate that he should have been exempt from the 
contested FA or any component thereof. Therefore, 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 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.
