AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPPPR states that the Joint Meritorious Unit Award is only
awarded to joint units or activities that consist of more than one
Service of the U.S., as reflected in joint manpower documents. There
is no indication in the applicant’s records that he was ever assigned
to a joint unit. Therefore, they recommend denial of applicant’s
request.
On 2 December 2002, DPPPR informed the applicant that they could not
identify any joint unit or activity to which he had been assigned. He
was asked to withdraw his application, since he is not eligible for
the award. He did not respond.
A complete copy of the evaluation, with attachments, is attached at
Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 14 February 2003, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded
to the applicant for review and response within 30 days. As of this
date, no response has been received by this office.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing
law or regulations.
2. The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.
3. No relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the
existence of error or injustice. We took notice of the applicant's
complete submission in judging the merits of the case; however, we
agree with the opinion and recommendation of the Air Force and adopt
their rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has
not been the victim of an error or injustice. We find no basis to
recommend granting the relief sought in this application.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that the
application was denied without a personal appearance; and that the
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of newly
discovered relevant evidence not considered with this application.
