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!
