For everyone's general information regarding unit awards - please refer to http://neds.nebt.daps.mil/o1650.htm

This is the online version of OPNAVNOTE 1650 - the list of all unit awards from 1961 through September 2002. You can find the Coastal Division Awards - including the Presidential Unit Citations awarded, in Enclosure 4. The individual ship (PCF) unit awards are in Enclosure 3.


The list is alphabetical by unit name (ex. PCF 11 or COSDIV 13), the abbreviation for the award (PU or RG) and the dates covered by the award. Anyone stationed with the unit during the listed dates are eligible for the listed award.

Unit awards from a foreign govt are not listed directly. Refer to Enclosure 1, and cross-reference the "remarks" section or astericks marks for other awards that the units is entitled to. In addtion, if you are retired or a veteran, see pg 2 of the cover letter for contact information for correcting your DD 214.

Don't be like Kerry and contact a senior fellow Democratic Senator to grease the skids and create a false DD 215 and amended reissued citations. It could come around to bite you on the butt if you decide to run for public office later.


The awards and abbreviations master list is in Enclosure 1.

This OPNAVNOTE might come in handy for tracking down awards that you might legitimately (unlike Kerry) be entitled to wear but were unaware of because you got transferred before the award was approved.
