APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His waist was measured at 37.50 on 11 September 2011 and his 
body mass index (BMI) was 27.9.  On 15 April 2012, his waist was 
measured at 39.50 despite a BMI of 28.0 and his weight having 
decreased by 2 pounds.  When he pointed out this discrepancy, he 
was told that it was accurate and to sign the form.  His waist 
was measured again on 15 July 2012 and it measured 35.50.  His 
weight was 194 and his BMI was 26.7 showing the trend.

In support of his appeal, the applicant submits his AFFMS print 
out.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial.  Due to the absence of 
substantiating documentation, the applicant’s claim could not be 
validated.  The applicant has not provided evidence to support 
an error or injustice.  

The complete DPSIM evaluation, with attachment, is at Exhibit B.

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 24 July 2013, for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit C).  As of this date, this office has received no 
response.

________________________________________________________________

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.  After a 
thorough review of the evidence presented, we are not persuaded 
that the fitness assessment is erroneous or unjust as recorded.  
As such, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the Air 
Force office of responsibility and adopt its rationale as the 
basis for our conclusion that the applicant has not been the 
victim of an error or injustice.  In the absence of persuasive 
evidence to the contrary, we find no compelling basis to 
recommend granting the relief sought in this application.  

________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS 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.
