Key Points to Writing
- PCS/PCA Decorations will be based on EPRs/OPRs
- Achievement
Decorations read like awards, and will need a narrative for justification
- DO NOT plan on making up mid-tour points
in a PCS medal
- Ask for HELP, the only person looking out for #1
is you
- The only person looking out for your Airman is YOU!
- ASK for/WRITE
a Mid Tour decoration
- WRITE!!! The more you do it, the better you
get
- Use F7 to spell check. Errors reflect badly on you and your subordinate!

The following Air Force Commendation Medal (AFCM) for meritorious service example has been taken from a

people I have received the package from. If possible, a little insight
will be given if it has been related.
If you have anything you would like to submit, please do so. Also, if

MERITORIOUS SERVICE
5 March 2002 TO 1 November 2004
Staff Sergeant
<FNAME> <MI>. <LNAME> distinguished himself by meritorious
service an Electrical Power Production Craftsman, 2d Civil Engineer Squadron, 2d
Mission Support Group, 2d Bomb Wing, Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana. During
this period, Sergeant <LNAME> consistently demonstrated professional skill,
decisive leadership and initiative as an integral part in the monumental success
of the generator maintenance program. He spearheaded the installation of over
$187,000 in state-of-the-art power generation equipment. Sergeant <LNAME>’s
meticulous planning and timely installation enabled five critical command and
control facilities to continue to operate during commercial power outages.
Recognized as an expert in his career field, he revamped the generator operating
instructions, one-line diagrams, and user training criteria. Sgt <LNAME>
developed continuity books for four maintenance crews to enhance training on
vital generator programs; implementing stringent maintenance criteria for
critical engine sub-systems, thereby significantly improving fuel efficiency and
engine performance. Sergeant <LNAME> brilliantly led his generator crew into
action after the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster by providing around-the-clock
diesel fuel support for climate control and hangar security enabling recovery
teams to reclaim and process 12,000 pieces of shuttle debris. His superb
leadership of the generator and aircraft arresting barrier crews greatly
contributed to the squadron winning the Air Combat Command Robert E. Curtin
Award for “Best Civil Engineer Squadron” and receiving an “Outstanding” Nuclear
Surety Inspection rating for 2002. The distinctive accomplishments of Sergeant <LNAME>
reflect credit upon himself and the United States Air Force.
