RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
IN THE MATTER OF:
DOCKET NUMBER: 97- 03624
COUNSEL: None
HEARING DESIRED: NO
SEP 1 6 %98
Applicant requests he be awarded the Humanitarian Service Medal.
Applicant's submission is at Exhibit A.
The appropriate Air Force office evaluated applicant's request
and provided an advisory opinion to the Board recommending the
application be denied (Exhibit C). The advisory opinion was
forwarded to the applicant for review and response (Exhibit D).
As of this date, no response has been received by this office.
After careful consideration of applicant's request and the
available evidence of record, we find insufficient evidence of
error or injustice to warrant corrective action. The facts and
opinions stated in the advisory opinion appear to be based on the
evidence of record and have not been rebutted by applicant.
Absent persuasive evidence applicant was denied rights to which
entitled, appropriate regulations were not followed, or
appropriate standards were not applied, we find no basis to
disturb the existing record.
Accordingly, applicant's request is denied.
The Board staff is directed to inform applicant of this decision.
Applicant should also be informed that this decision is final and
will only be reconsidered upon the presentation of new relevant
evidence which was not reasonably available at the time the
application was filed.
Members of the Board Mr. Thomas J. Markiewicz, Mr. Henry Romo,
Jr., and Mr. Walter J. Hosey considered this application on
1 9 August 1 9 9 8 in accordance with the provisions of Air Force
Instruction 36- 2603, and the governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1 5 5 2 .
