                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:                 DOCKET NO.:  99-03128
                             INDEX CODE:  107.00

    .       COUNSEL:  NONE

                 HEARING DESIRED:  NO


The applicant requests he be awarded the Purple Heart  Medal  due  to  an
aircraft explosion  caused  by  a  chain  reaction  of  explosions.   The
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 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 Mrs. Barbara A. Westgate, Ms.  Patricia  D.  Vestal,
Mr. Jackson A. Hauslein, considered this application on June 1, 2000,  in
accordance with the provisions of Air Force Instruction 36-2603  and  the
governing statute, 10 U.S.C. 1552.
