In support of her request, the applicant provides a memorandum from her commander indicating she should not have tested and deemed the FA dated 18 September 2012 invalid. Her complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A. ________________________________________________________________ STATEMENT OF FACTS: 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. ________________________________________________________________ THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION: AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial. DPSIM states that in accordance with AFI 36-2905 Air Force Fitness Program, if an airman becomes injured or ill during the FA and is unable to complete all required components, he/she will have the option of being evaluated at the Medical Treatment Facility but his/her test will still count unless rendered invalid by the unit commander. Anxiety from personal issues in itself does not constitute injury or illness; however, if diagnosed by the medical treatment facility as a condition precluding FA completion, the commander may invalidate it. The complete DPSIM evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit B. ________________________________________________________________ APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION: On 14 December 2012, a copy of the Air Force evaluation, with attachment, was forwarded to the applicant for review and comment within 30 days.
