I was looking on the web and saw that certificates now exist to show you have qualified as expert or marksman while on active duty. I never recieved any of these and would like to know how I would if at all be able to get such a thing??? What else is new?????

After looking around the web a bit, I am going to guess this is a product of a commercial company trying to make money. Doesn't seem like an Army issued certificate to me.
I can't seem to find the company that sells this one (if I'm right), but here's a company that sells a similar certificate: http://www.nles.com/store/customer/product.php?productid=880

Was the certificate on the site Medals of America? They are full of simply fake awards.

I have never seen these certificates and am not sure if they are official. They could very easily be something that someone dreamt up using a computer.
Not to be a smartass, but if they are official then you get one by:
1. Going onto a range and qualifying with a weapon to the established standard.
2. Have your company operations process the appropriate paperwork.
3. Ensure your company operations places the appropriate paperwork into your OMPF.

Thanks COL Smallfield... I didnt take it as being a smart ass, I am a vet who qualified as Expert all the time and after finding this I was puzzled because I didnt get these and was just wondering if they were new, if so I would have gone through the proper channels to have gotten them to go with the rest of my awards gathering dust.
