RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 99-00651
INDEX CODE: 107
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING: NO
The applicant requests his DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or
Discharge From Active Duty, be corrected to reflect: The award of the
Meritorious Service Medal (MSM) (for retirement); two Air Force
Achievement Medals (AFAM w/1 OLC); and, the Republic of Vietnam
Campaign 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. Richard A. Peterson, Mr. Gregory H. Petkoff,
and Ms. Melinda J. Loftin considered this application on 4 November
1999 in accordance with the provisions of Air Force Instruction 36-
2603, and the governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.
