                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  99-00579
            INDEX CODE: 107.00

            COUNSEL:  None

            HEARING DESIRED: No


Applicant  requests  that  his  DD  Form  214,  Certificate  of  Release  or
Discharge from Active Duty, Block 13, be corrected to reflect the Air  Force
Commendation Medal, First Oak Leaf Cluster (AFCM, 1OLC), Air Force  Overseas
Short Tour Ribbon, and Air Force Outstanding Unit  Award,  Second  Oak  Leaf
Cluster (AFOUA, 2OLC).  Applicant's submission is at Exhibit A.

Applicant’s request that the Air Force Overseas Short Tour Ribbon  be  added
to his DD Form 214 has been administratively corrected.

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.  On  17  March  1999,  AFPC/DPPPR  requested  the
applicant to provide documentation substantiating his claims for  the  AFCM,
1OLC, and AFOUA, 2OLC. Applicant’s response to their request is  at  Exhibit
E.  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. Terry A. Yonkers, Mr.  Wayne  R.  Gracie,  and  Ms.
Leta L.  O’Connor  considered  this  application  on  17 September  1999  in
accordance with the provisions of Air Force  Instruction  36-2603,  and  the
governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.



                                     TERRY A. YONKERS
