Permanent Orders Number 101-886, dated 11 April 2001; 516th Personnel
Services Battalion Permanent Orders Number 200-18, dated 19 July 2001; and

He goes on to state that one order for the 3rd award and one order for the 6th award of the GCMDL should be removed from his OMPF and revoked. The applicant provides a personnel records request form and copies of all orders awarding him the GCMDL. Accordingly, action should be taken to revoke Permanent Orders 101-689 dated 11 April 2001 (3rd Award) and Permanent Orders 085-03 dated 31 March 2008 (6th Award), which are both duplicate orders contained in his OMPF.

The applicant provides: a. The applicant’s request to have a memorandum, dated 19 November 1996 pertaining to denial of award to the AGCM removed from his records was carefully considered.

ARMY | BCMR | CY2010 | 20100008006
The applicant requests removal from her Official Military Personnel File (OMPF) the duplicate set of orders awarding her the third award of the Good Conduct Medal (GCMDL). There are no orders or other evidence in the applicant's OMPF to show that either of the orders awarding her the GCMDL (3rd Award) were revoked. Therefore, it would be appropriate to revoke the second (duplicate) order that was issued awarding the applicant the GCMDL (3rd Award) for the same period of service.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2005 | 20050009660C070206
The applicant states, in effect, that a duplicate order awarding him the Good Conduct Medal (Fourth Award) and the corresponding order revoking that order are filed in the performance section of his OMPF and this may give members of a future Command Sergeants Major promotion selection board a false impression that the award was actually taken away from the applicant. The evidence of record confirms that the applicant was properly awarded the Good Conduct Medal (Fourth Award) by permanent...
