                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:                 DOCKET NO: 99-01330
                             INDEX CODE 107.00
                             COUNSEL: None

                             HEARING DESIRED: Yes

Applicant requests his records  reflect  he  was  awarded  the  Purple
Heart.  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,  this
office has received no response.

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 documentation provided with this case was sufficient to  give  the
Board a clear understanding of the  issues  involved  and  a  personal
appearance, with or without legal counsel, would not  have  materially
added to that understanding.  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  Mrs.  Barbara  A.  Westgate,  Mr.  William  H.
Anderson, and Mr. Philip Sheuerman considered this  application  on  1
December  1999  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  Air   Force
Instruction 36-2603, and the governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.
