                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  99-01307
            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 amended to reflect award  of  the  Air  Force
Achievement Medal (AFAM), Air Force  Basic  Military  Training  (BMT)  Honor
Graduate Ribbon, Professional Military Education  (PME)  Ribbon,  Air  Force
Outstanding Unit Award with three  (3)  Oak  Leaf  Clusters  (AFOUA  3OLCs).
Applicant's submission is at Exhibit A.

As noted by the Air Force, in  their  advisory  opinion,  dated  27 December
1999  (Exhibit  C),  the  applicant’s  record  has   been   administratively
corrected to include the AFAM, Air Force  BMT  Honor  Graduate  Ribbon,  PME
Ribbon, AFOUA w/2OLCs.  Therefore, the only issue to be considered  by  this
Board is the Air Force Outstanding Unit Award with Third  Oak  Leaf  Cluster
(AFOUA 3OLC).  The  appropriate  Air  Force  offices  evaluated  applicant's
request and  provided  advisory  opinions  to  the  Board  recommending  the
application be denied (Exhibit C).  The advisory opinions were forwarded  to
the applicant for review and response (Exhibit D).  Applicant’s response  to
the advisory opinions is at Exhibit E.

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
adequately 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. David C. Van Gasbeck, Mr. Roger  E.  Willmeth,  and
Mr. William E. Edwards considered this  application  on  13  April  2000  in
accordance with the provisions of Air Force  Instruction  36-2603,  and  the
governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.
