          Dear Mr. Kendziewski,

           

          Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!

           

          The National Archives does not make alterations of any kind to the records we hold.  In order to request a correction you will need to submit a DD Form 149, Application for Correction of Military Records.  The second page outlines which address you must send it to depending on your branch of service.  Please visit the National Personnel Records Center’s webpage on the topic for more information. 

           

          We hope this information has been helpful.
