2.  The applicant requests that he be advanced to pay grade E-2 effective 26 May 1992 and that he receive all back-pay and allowances due him.

3.  He states that on 26 May 1992 he received his Eagle Scout designation which should have resulted in his advancement to pay grade E-2, but his unit never completed the necessary paperwork for the advancement.

4.  The applicant has included a copy of the documentation granting him an Eagle Scout designation (Eagle Scout Certificate 58-708) which is dated 26 May 1992.

5.  Army Regulation 601-210, Regular and Army Reserve Enlistment Program, in effect at the time, provides in Table 2-3, Rule L, that an applicant who is or has been a member of the Boy Scouts of America and is a recipient of Boy Scout Eagle Certificate Form 58-708 will be enlisted in pay grade E-2.

CONCLUSIONS:

1.  The applicant has provided the proper documentation to support that he should have been enlisted in pay grade E-2 on 26 May 1992.  Accordingly, his DOR should be adjusted and he should receive all back pay and allowances effective as of that date.

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 that the individual concerned was enlisted in pay grade E-2 on 26 May 1992 and by authorizing him any and all back pay and allowances due him as a result there from.
