CERTIFICATES THEY RECEIVED THROUGH THE SUPPLY SYSTEM WERE NOT IN
COMPLIANCE WITH THE STANDARD CERTIFICATES THAT ARE MANDATED BY
DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY (DON) POLICY. SPECIFICALLY, THE SPACE
BETWEEN THE "FOR" AND THE SEAL WAS TOO NARROW. DON POLICY MANDATES
THAT THIS SPACE BE 1.5 INCHES.

ONE RELACMENT OF SUBSTANDARD CERTIFICATES. COMMANDS ARE AUTHORIZED
TO REQUEST A REPLACEMENT FROM THE DEFENSE AUTOMATED PRINTING SYSTEM

FOLLOWING INFORMATION:
A. THE REQUISITION NUMBER USED TO ORDER THE WRONG CERTIFICATES,
B. THE NUMBER OF REPLACEMENT CERTIFICATES REQUIRED, AND
C. A SHIPPING ADDRESS FOR THE CERTIFICATES.
3. SUBSTANDARD CERTIFICATES WILL BE REPLACED AT NO COST TO THE
COMMAND. THIS METHOD OF CERTIFICATE PROCUREMENT DOES NOT REPLACE
THE ORDERING INSTRUCTIONS DISSEMINATED IN MARADMIN 016/00. THIS
METHOD OF COMMUNICATION IS EXCLUSIVELY FOR THE IDENTIFICATION AND
REPLACEMENT OF SUBSTANDARD CERTIFICATES.//
