The Secretary of the Air Force Personnel Council approved the organizations for 2014-2015 U.S. Air Force Unit Awards for the period from Oct. 1, 2013 to Dec. 31, 2014.

According to SecAF personnel council guidance, subordinate units assigned directly to parent organizations can share in these awards provided they have been identified by the parent unit as being eligible.

Subordinate units should contact the parent unit for verification. The Air Force Personnel Center Recognition Programs Section will publish special orders and update all parent and subordinate units in the Air Force Unit Award Database. The database can be found at http://access.afpc.af.mil/AwardsDMZNet40/Default.aspx.

Active duty, Reserve, and Guard personnel who are/have been assigned to these identified organizations can report to their servicing military personnel section and have their unit awards updated in their records, and are authorized to wear the appropriate unit award ribbon on their uniforms according to AFI 36-2903, Dress and Appearance of Air Force Personnel.

Personnel who have since had a PCS or PCA and are entitled to share in the approved unit award listed should report to their servicing FSS for assistance.

Veterans should report to their local Veterans of Foreign Wars, Disabled American Veterans, or Veterans Administration offices for assistance.

Air Force civilian employees should report to their servicing CPS to have the award documented in DCPDS and receive the appropriate lapel pin.
