PART 887_ISSUING OF CERTIFICATES IN LIEU OF LOST OR DESTROYED CERTIFICATES 
OF SEPARATION--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 887.2  Safeguarding certificates.

    Certificates of separation are important personal documents. 
Processing applications for CILs is costly to the Air Force. To keep 
requests for CILs at a minimum:
    (a) Personnel officers will tell members of the importance of 
safeguarding the original certificates.
    (b) Persons who issue CILs will type or stamp across the lower 
margin ``THIS IS AN IMPORTANT RECORD--SAFEGUARD IT'' (if it is not 
printed on the certificate).
    Note: Do not show this legend on DD Form 363AF, Certificate of 
Retirement.
