RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2013-04471

			COUNSEL:  NONE

			HEARING DESIRED:  NO

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

1. The 2 Aug 13 Fitness Assessment be declared void and removed from the Air Force Fitness Management System (Resolved administratively - On 13 Jan 14 AFPC/DPSIM removed due to the applicant’s pregnancy at the time of the FA).

2. The Letter of Reprimand (LOR) dated 7 Aug 13, associated with an unsatisfactory Fitness Assessment (FA) dated 2 Aug 13, be removed from her record.

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

The LOR she received is unjust because it is based on FA results that are no longer part of her record.

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving as a Senior Airman (E-4) in the regular Air Force.

The Automated Records Managements System (ARMS) shows, on 7 Aug 13, the applicant received an LOR.  The actual document is not available in ARMS.

On 13 Jan 14 AFPC/DPSIM administratively removed the contested FA from the applicant’s record.  The Air Force Fitness Management Record System (AFFMS) no longer shows the applicant having an unsatisfactory FA on 2 Aug 13.

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSIM administrative correction, with attachments, is at Exhibit B.
________________________________________________________________




AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial of the applicant’s request due to lack of documentation specifically, there was no LOR provided that precisely states it was administered for an FA failure.  The applicant provided no documentation to establish that proper procedures were not followed to warrant removal of the LOR.

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, with attachment, was forwarded to the applicant on 14 Mar 14 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 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.  In this respect, we note the medical documentation the applicant submitted indicating that she was pregnant, resulting in the contested FA being subsequently removed from the AFFMS.  As such, the only issue before this Board is the Letter of Reprimand (LOR) the applicant received for the FA failure.  In this regard, we note the applicant has not provided the contested LOR.  As such, we are unable to determine whether her failure to successfully completed the now-voided FA, was the sole basis for the LOR.  Should the applicant provide such evidence, we would be willing to reconsider her request.  However, in view of the above and 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.
