12, be corrected in the Air Force Fitness Management System 
(AFFMS).

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial.  DPSIM states that in accordance 
with AFI 36-2905, Fitness Program, Paragraph 10, “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 (MTF), but his/her 
test will still count unless rendered invalid by the unit 
commander.”

The applicant provided an AF Form 469 from her primary care 
provider and an AF Form 108; however, she has not provided 
documentation from the unit commander indicating his/her 
decision to invalidate both FAs.

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

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

On 29 Oct 13, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded 
to the applicant 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 error or injustice.  We took notice 
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of 
the case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation 
of the Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt its 
rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has 
not been the victim of an error or injustice.  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 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.
