Hello,

Does anybody know which awards are tracked on Paperless Wing, or eServices? Also, Why are certain ones tracked, and certain ones are not?

Other than the cadet milestone awards (Wright Brothers, Mitchell, Earhart, Eaker and Spaatz) and the Gill Robb Wilson, no other awards and decorations are currently tracked in eServices.

If you log into E-Services and access your account, look at training under My Accomplishments.

Your professional development awards are tracked there.

Totally forgot about the lesser PD awards, though they don't carry an award number like the GRW. The Yeager award also has a certificate number but it is not tracked in the accomplishments part of eServices.

Yeagers are numbered?  I didn't know that.  Mine's so old it's not even a Yeager ... it's an AEPSM Award.

OK, so my next question is. How about the Comm Comm Award? or 2 year Serivce Ribbon? Or Find Ribbon. How is this tracked, and does it show up on a electronic form? eServices I am guessing you have to keep track of them yourself?

Track yourself - keep the 120.  No electronic tracking of decorations beyond the ones which have an activity,
test, or training tied to them, and then only in the abstract of that and not the dec itself.

NHQ is supposedly rolling out a electronic CAPF 120 module for eServices later this year - not sure if - or how - the module will track decorations. Shouldn't be much of a stretch to create a module for service awards.

No supposedly about it, it's currently on the test portal.


Just a note, currently Award Recommendation and Recommendation for Decoration point to the same page.

For most of these a CAPF2a is submitted and approved by the unit commander. It is then simply placed in the member's file and then he or she is good to go.  I'm sure there are exceptions but those are all covered in CAPR 39-3.

Devil Doc

Ok, So if somebody submitted you for a reward, and dont tell you, and or forgot, How do you know if it was Approved?

Award, not reward.

However, you do not.  I have received Commander's Commendations 2, 3, 4 years after being awarded them.  I found out by accident really.  They were awarded, supposed to be mailed, but were forgotten about.

Ya, I am sorry, I am typing too fast yes AWARDED. So pretty much, there is no system like the military uses to track you awards?

Exactly.

So, I had the forethought to ask the devs working on the Awards Application a question along the lines of:

QuoteFinally, just a simple curious question, will there be a section in Member Search where we can see the decorations of the member we are viewing?
The response I received was:
QuoteYes there will be a section in Member Search under the training tab that will display this information.

Now for all previous awards prior to the rollout of the decorations module... will the personnel officer/director of personnel be able to manually input previous awards - of course, if the proper proof is submitted (award certificate, personnel authorization, etc.)?

Last I heard, there will be a window in which certain personnel could enter old awards.

Hello,

Does anybody know which awards are tracked on Paperless Wing, or eServices? Also, Why are certain ones tracked, and certain ones are not?

The SMV, BMV, and DSA are tracked at NHQ but not online.

With the online decorations application, those, plus Exceptional, Meritorious , Commanders Commendation (all levels), Life Saving, Achievement, and Unit Citation Awards are all tracked.  There is also a field for "other".  Hopefully items on the CAPF2a will follow suit later on.

How do we get historical awards into the system?
