                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  99-01130
            INDEX CODE: 107.00

            COUNSEL:  None

            HEARING DESIRED: No


Applicant  requests  that  his  DD  Form  214,  Certificate  of  Release  or
Discharge from Active Duty, be corrected to reflect the  award  of  the  Air
Force Longevity Service Award with an oak leaf cluster  and  the  Air  Force
Recognition Ribbon.  Applicant's submission is at Exhibit A.

Applicant’s  DD  Form  214  has  been  administratively  corrected  by   the
appropriate Air Force office to reflect  the  Air  Force  Longevity  Service
Award with one Bronze Oak Leaf Cluster.

The appropriate Air Force office evaluated applicant's request in regard  to
the award of the Air Force  Recognition  Ribbon  and  provided  an  advisory
opinion to the Board recommending the application  be  denied  (Exhibit  C).
The advisory opinion was forwarded to the applicant/counsel for  review  and
response (Exhibit D).  As of this date, no response  has  been  received  by
this office.

The application was not timely filed; however, it  is  in  the  interest  of
justice to excuse the failure to timely file.

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 S. Markiewicz, Mr.  Edward  C.  Koenig,  and
Mr. Gregory W. Den Herder considered this application on  30  November  1999
in accordance with the provisions of Air Force Instruction 36-2603, and  the
governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.



                                     THOMAS S. MARKIEWICZ

Exhibits:

A.  Applicant's DD Form 149
