How do I proceed to have authorized  the "Presidential Service Badge"? 

I believe I am authorized to have this badge while I was performing
close Presidential support duties of President Nixon while on active
duty with the USAF at Homestead AFB Fl. from 1967-1972. I have
military documentation to verify these duties. Yor assistanace for
this belated request is appreciated.

Sincerely,

Hi Geno1-ga

I found a website that ?provides information on requests for the
issuance or replacement of military service medals, decorations, and
awards?

The NPRA (National Personnel Records Center) handles?
?Requests for the issuance or replacement of military service medals,
decorations, and awards?
There are more specific instructions on their website depending on
what Branch you were in.

There doesn't seem to be any web reference to how you can get this
authorized, but the authorization comes from the Military Assistant to
the President. You could just write to the White House Military Office
to seek guidance?

During the Key Biscayne years, the Presidential Service Badge was
authorized for people assigned duty at Key Biscayne and the old hangar
BLDG 908 at Homestead AFB on the flight line.    I believe that LtCol
Morgan in the Special Operations Office and maybe 2 or 3 enlisted USAF
from the Transportation Section that took care of the fleet of leased
vehicles for WH Staff, ground support equipment for AF-1 and other
support aircraft were the only people awarded the PSB other than the
White House Comm Agency permanent party.  Direct Presidential support
for 100% of the time was the requirement.  It was evident that several
other units on the base played a support role 13 times a year, always
giving up their 3 day weekend for the entire Nixon era.

The White House Communications Agency had a detachment of permanent
party assigned to both Key Biscayne and Homestead AFB, but one of the
requirements for assignment was a minimum of one year in the Agency in
the Washington area, so technically everyone assigned to that group
already had earned their PSB prior to arrival at Homestead/Key
Biscayne.  I am not aware of any PSB ever awarded outside the White
House Military Office (WHMO) umbrella that includes the White House
Comm Agency, Marines (HMX-1), 89th SAM (AF-1), WH Medical Unit, WH
Transportation, WH Staff Mess, Camp David, and the WH Miltiary Office.

Good Luck
