2. The applicant requests that the amount of disability severance pay that is listed on his DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, be corrected.
3. The applicant states that he had received $44,258.40 in disability severance pay, not $51,634.80, the amount which is listed on his DD Form 214.
4. In support of his application he submits his final Leave and Earnings Statement (LES) which shows that he received $44,258.40 in disability severance pay.
5. The applicant’s military record shows that he enlisted in the Regular Army on 17 June 1985, was awarded the military occupational specialty of ammunition specialist, and was promoted to pay grade E-5.

1. The applicant’s LES confirms that an error was made on the amount of severance pay shown on his DD Form 214.

His March 2003 LES indicates that his indebtedness...
