GENTEXT/REMARKS/1. THE PURPOSE OF THIS MARADMIN IS TO PROVIDE AN
UPDATE OF AWARDS SINCE THE LAST UPDATE, MARADMIN 511/06.
2. IN ACCORDANCE WITH REF B, THE INTENT OF A UNIT AWARD IS
TO PROVIDE RECOGNITION TO ALL MILITARY PERSONNEL PERMANENTLY
ASSIGNED (AND OTHERS WHO MAY BE SPECIFICALLY IDENTIFIED) TO THE
CITED UNIT WHO WERE ACTUALLY PRESENT AND PARTICIPATED IN THE
ACTION(S) FOR WHICH THE UNIT WAS CITED. HOWEVER, REF B ALSO
STATES THAT THE COMMANDING OFFICER OF THE UNIT DETERMINES
INDIVIDUAL ELIGIBILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN UNIT AWARDS. ADDITIONALLY,
REF B HIGHLIGHTS LANGUAGE FROM 10 USC 6249, WHICH STATES THAT NO
MEDAL MAY BE AWARDED OR PRESENTED TO ANY INDIVIDUAL IF THE SERVICE
AFTER THE DISTINGUISHING ACT OR PERIOD HAS NOT BEEN HONORABLE.
ACCORDINGLY, IF A COMMANDING OFFICER DETERMINES THAT AN INDIVIDUAL
IS NOT ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE BECAUSE HE OR SHE DID NOT MEET
ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS OR DID NOT SATISFACTORILY PARTICIPATE IN
THE CITED ACTIONS, A PAGE 11 ENTRY STATING SUCH SHALL BE MADE TO
ENSURE THAT THE MARINE(S) DOES NOT SOMEHOW RECEIVE THE AWARD AT A
LATER DATE. THIS PAGE 11 ENTRY SHOULD READ: '(DATE). I HAVE BEEN
INFORMED BY MY COMMANDING OFFICER THAT I AM NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE
AWARDING OF THE (PUC/NUC/MUC) AWARDED TO (NAME OF UNIT) FOR THE
PERIOD (IDENTIFY THE FROM AND TO PERIODS) DUE TO (STATE REASON).'
THIS PAGE 11 ENTRY MUST BE SIGNED BY THE INDIVIDUAL MARINE AND THE
