RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2011-04234-2
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His record be corrected to reflect he is eligible for award of
the Vietnam Service Medal (VSM) and the Republic of Vietnam
Gallantry Cross w/Palm (RVNGC w/P).
________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
A similar appeal was considered and denied by the Board on
26 June 2012. For an accounting of the facts and the rationale
of the earlier decision by the Board, see the Record of
Proceedings (ROP) at Exhibit F.
On 5 November 2012 the applicant submitted a request for
reconsideration. In support of his request, he provided a
personal letter, copy of his Request and Authorization for
Temporary Duty - Military dated 23 Oct 1969, Air Force History
Index, Historical Research Agency and internet documents
pertaining to his former unit, and excerpts from AFI 36-2803,
The Air Force Awards And Decorations Program and Wikipedia
related to foreign awards and decorations.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit G.
________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
In earlier findings, the Board determined there was insufficient
evidence to warrant any corrective action. After thoroughly
reviewing the additional documentation submitted in support of
his appeal and the evidence of record, we do not believe the
applicant has overcome the rationale expressed in the previous
decision. Therefore, in view of the above, and in the absence
of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis upon which to
recommend favorable reconsideration of the applicants request.
________________________________________________________________
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.

Dear:
After careful consideration of your request for reconsideration of your application for
correction of military records, AFBCMR Docket Number BC-2011-04234, the Board determined
there was insufficient evidence of an error or injustice to warrant corrective action. Accordingly,
your application was again denied.
This decision does not preclude an additional request for reconsideration, but such a
request must be accompanied by newly discovered relevant evidence that was not reasonably
available at the time of your original application. Absent such additional evidence, further
consideration of your application is not possible.
