AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

b' 

IN THE MATTER OF: 

DOCKET NUMBER:  98-01236 
COUNSEL : 
HEARING DESIRED:  NO 

.(ULG  1  4  1998 

Applicant requests that his records include the NCO  Professional 
Military Education Graduate Ribbon.  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 applicant's case is adequately documented and it has not been 
shown that  a  personal  appearance  with  or  without  counsel will 
materially  add  to  our  understanding  of  the  issue(s)  involved. 
Therefore, the request for a hearing is not favorably considered. 

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.  Charles  E.  Bennett,  Mr.  Loren  S .  
Perlstein, and Ms. Peggy E. Gordon considered this application on 
6  August  1998,  in  accordance with  the  provisions of Air  Force 
Instruction 36-2603, and the governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.
