2.  The applicant requests that his reenlistment document (DD Form 4/1) dated 15 February 1994 be corrected to show that he reenlisted for 6 years instead of 8 years as is shown.

3.  He states that the 8-year reenlistment is incorrect and not in accordance with Army regulations.

4.  Army Regulation 140-111, US Army Reserve Reenlistment Program, states in table 2-3 that if an applicant assigned to a USAR unit chooses to continue unit membership, is between the ages of 18 and 54, is currently serving under a USAR enlistment and is within 3 months of completing the term of the enlistment, he or she may reenlist for a term of service of 3, 4, 5 or 6 years.

5.  The same regulation provides that a correction to the term of service or the effective date of a reenlistment agreement is prohibited.  The soldier must petition this Board for correction consideration.

CONCLUSIONS:

1.  His DD Form 4/1 reflects that he was reenlisted for 8 years which is incorrect per the above cited regulation.  His reenlistment term of service should have been for no more than a 6 year period.

2.  In view of the foregoing, the applicant’s records should be corrected as recommended below.

RECOMMENDATION:

That all of the Department of the Army records related to this case be corrected by showing the individual concerned was reenlisted on 15 February 1994 for a term of 6 years.

BOARD VOTE:
