RECORD  OF  PROCEEDINGS 

IN THE MATTER OF: 

A I R   FORCE  BOARD  FOR  CORRECTION  OF  MILITARY  RECORDS 
DOCKET NUMBER:  98-00141 
COUNSEL:  NONE 

HEARING DESIRED:  NO 

Applicant  requests  tha  he  be  awarded  the  Aerial  ,chievement 
Medal  ( A A M ) ,   First  Oak  Leaf  Cluster,  for  his  support  in 
Humanitarian Operations for the period  24  Jan 93  to  30 Jun 94. 
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 opinions 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  S. Markiewicz,  Mr.  David  C. 
Van  Gasbeck,  and  Mr.  Michael  P.  Higgins  considered  this 
application on 17 June 1998, in accordance with the provisions of 
Air  Force  Instruction  3 6 - 2 6 0 3   and  the  governing  statute,  10 
U.S.C. 1552.
