RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NO.: 99-00503
INDEX CODE: 107.00
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
The applicant requests a DD Form 215 be issued correcting his original
separation document, effective 9 Oct 45. Applicant requests the DD Form
215 reflect the Good Conduct Medal, Marksmanship Badge with Pistol Bar,
Air Crew Member Aviation Badge, and Aircraft Maintenance Badge. The
applicant's submission is at Exhibit A.
Applicant’s Report of Separation already reflects award of the Good
Conduct Medal and Marksmanship Badge with Pistol Bar. AFPC/DPPRRC
administratively corrected the applicant’s Report of Separation to
reflect receipt of the Aircrew Member Badge. Therefore, the only issue
remaining for the Board’s consideration is the Aircraft Maintenance
Badge/Aircraft and Munitions Maintenance Badge. The appropriate Air
Force office evaluated applicant's remaining 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(s) appear to be based on the evidence of record and have
not been adequately rebutted by applicant/counsel. 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 David Mulgrew, Mr. William H. Anderson, and Mr.
Mike Novel, considered this application on 9 May, 2000, in accordance
with the provisions of Air Force Instruction 36-2603 and the governing
statute, 10 U.S.C. 1552.

ARMY | BCMR | CY2011 | 20110009590
At the time of the applicant's service, the Aviation Badge was called the Aircraft Crewman Badge and would not have been abbreviated as shown on his DD Form 214. NPRC improperly changed the applicant's Army Aviator Badge ["ArAvBad" as shown on his DD Form 214] to the Aviation Badge. As a result, the Board recommends that all Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by: a. voiding the 28 January 2004 DD Form 215; b. deleting the entire award entries from item...

His records be corrected to reflect award of the Special Experience Identifier (SEI) for Stinger Missiles to Security Police Personnel, and the United States Air Force (USAF) Missile Badge. They indicated that the applicant was not eligible for any Navy marksmanship awards, as he was not on active duty with the Navy; he was in the Air Force. Since the applicant was on active duty in the Air Force, he would not be authorized to wear another service’s devices on awards earned while in the...

There are no orders in the applicant’s service personnel records which show that he was awarded any of these badges or medals.
