Can I email my battalion or brigade commander in regard to my PCS award?

I honestly just signed up on this website because I am really needing an answer. I PCSd last month (March 2018), and did not receive my PCS Award nor did not get any recognition that I'm leaving the unit (I digress on that topic). The Form 638 was submitted 5 times prior my PCS date and from what I heard from my squad leader it was already approved. However, upon checking my ERB and PPW today (4/11), nowhere I can find this award. I haven't received my AGCM neither but it's on my ERB/PPW so I don't care to receive the hard copy. So what do I do in this situation? I honestly don't want to contact my previous unit because they're a POS who don't track of paper works or anything unless it's a bad thing.

Contact your supervisor then S1 before going to the commander. Sometimes the unit gets so busy with the mission they forget the basics. Or it could be someone that just doesn’t like you and wants to screw you, so call them on it. It happens, people are petty.

This kind of question is exactly what RP is for. First I would suggest contacting the old S-1 as to the status. Regardless of what they say, then contact your old BN CSM. Contact the S1 first to pass the information on to the CSM, because the first thing he will do is check S1 and this shows you've done your diligence in following up. The reason to contact your BN CSM is soldier development is his priority. The Brigade CSM will just refer it down to the BN CSM, and your old 1SG lacks the authority to walk into the S1 and make them fix an error on the spot.
